Woman gets stuck hanging by a rope in an elevator and security camera footage goes viral

Footage from a security camera showed the tense moment when a woman was left hanging by a rope inside an elevator in Brazil.

The incident occurred in Curitiba, the capital of Paraná, while administrative assistant Andriele was in the elevator at the office where she works with her friends Crislaine and Luana.

In the video, you can see the three women entering the elevator with carts they frequently use to transport goods. Andriele was the last one to enter the elevator.

However, none of them noticed that the cart’s rope was left outside the elevator, so when it began to descend, the rope was pulled up, trapping Andriele by the legs and suspending her in the air for a few seconds.

“At that moment, I thought the elevator would jam. The rope is super strong, and I was really afraid that something would go wrong and an accident would happen to the three of us,” said Andriele in a message sent to the Catve website.

Fortunately, her friends were quick to save her, and in the end, they all laughed at the tense situation. No one was injured.
