A ghost?

I just love this. Did something similar in 1983 when my wife an I managed Seacrest Apartments on the Gold Coast. How many realise there is a hidden door in many smaller lifts to allow for an ambulance stretcher. Anyways hope you enjoy as I did.

If the victims didn't believe in ghosts before they'd have been quickly converted...... For a short while anyway.

Good one Peter. Thanks.

Excellent ... some room for a bit of a back fire there on the organisers though, especially with the older people

call me an 'ol party pooper...... but i dont find that is at all funny!
methinks it is a complete "double" setup, that is we the viewer are being done and the elevator people are actors
if it were true which i seriously doubt it would only take one dicky heart, or someone with a high sense of self preservation to lash out at a poor innocent little girl!........ the game would well and truly be over then

Good one, Peter! But I can see some danger in it.

Haha, while watching I was thinking how fun it would be to turn the prank around... would need a bottle of tomato sauce or some other red liquid tho
Edit: Oh, and get the young girl to lay down in a puddle of red

Perhaps such concerns are not so important in Brazil?

I found it hilarious.

I found it funny but when watching I wondered if the 'fight' rather than 'flight' reaction could occur - I mean, well, you could hit out!
