Here's a new subway video showing a man in a wheelchair go into a crazy rage and fall down an elevator shaft. He missed the elevator, so he rams it three times and breaks through the door.

My girlfriend and I argued about it. She felt bad for the old man and blames the woman in the elevator for not holding the doors open. I can understand the man's frustration, but it was clearly an overreaction. I feel (perhaps callously) that this is simply a way of weeding out the unfit (Darwinism in the 21st century).

This video has started appearing on the Korean news sites. Apparently, the man died.

shouldnt the elevator doors be more durable than that?

Thread about it in the other forum, man. I'm going to confess the video made me laugh. I watched it again after finding out he died. Still laughed.

It DID make the Darwin Awards website. http://www.darwinawards.com/

I have no problems laughing at the video. The guy's an idiot. I never knew him either, so don't really feel all that bad about it.

And that's why you always leave a note.
