i cant believe he pulled out the calculator... im too done

Honestly when he exited the first elevator I thought we were going to hear a bunch of screams from the elevator falling. 😂😂😂😂

This is great to watch at a time like this with coronu

Completely forgot that Swine Flu was the big epidemic back in 2010. Who knew the algorithm understood dark humour.

Moral Lesson: ALWAYS take the stairs.

This main guy is a mix of Jimmy Fallon and Robert Downey Jr.

I really enjoyed this video. Any short film that combines a real-life scenario, an ironic ending, and pre-COVID-reality humour deserves a comment, thumbs up, and 5-star rating!

this is a stand up, pure comedy without words just plain movement and reality. loving it. you're a genius.

Love that first shot of him pulling out the calculator--that's where I started laughing.

He should've be like:" Well guess that's were i'm going too now."

I love this short. Makes you appreciate life and reminds you that the grass is not always greenER. But the look on his face when big boy entered the elevator... lol

Anyone else watching this during the quarantine and feeling it’s too real!? Lmao

In spite of myself, I really empathize. I've fled from overcrowded elevators ( politely muttering "my floor" ) and many times stopped breathing for unconscionably long times to avoid the coughs and sneezes. Well done and very accurate ...

There's a crazy guy with a machete in the stairwell.

That camera angle at 1:10 was masterful.. captured just how tight it was in there... as soon as I saw that phone rise out of the abyss I sensed it was math time. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Finally I found a not depressive suicidal short movie, it just gets annoying even if they're great

half these comments say take the stairs but how often do you actually take the stairs?

Working at an office on the ninth floor, this film was right on target. I'm still smiling from your presentation.Well done.

Great short film! I always love seeing what UKposts had to offer in the early years... I miss it. Freaking LOVE the calculator. He knew what he had to do lol.

Thanks cause now we gotta do google classroom on this film 😐😤😭

The comedy points in this film were absolutely genius. Don't stop making films!

Fun fact! The weight limit on an elevator is often times 4x less than what it really is. This is done because they want to scare people away who have extremely heavy items. An elevator can hold the weight of every human that can fit in it’s entire cubic space and be fine. It has a problem when your carrying in a supermassive tank of water or huge amounts of metal or extremely heavy furniture.

Whoever watching this in 2020 knows that level 7 was still fine.

That’s so hilarious. A truly pure comedy that don’t need scripts or talks. I almost cried when he took out his calculator and assume the people weight. There is no offense to the obesity people or swine flu patients, the film just give us laughs from basic things in our life. I also love the music and the mise en scene, all components in the film synthesize very well. Thanks for the film, peace.

great job, and so funny, love the acting and the way everything is put together!

I didn't have any expectations and sat to watch freshly. Amazing humorous short film. I couldn't control my laughter when he opens his calculator, looks at that woman and types 245...Epic shot...thanks for making this day have a great ending!

That is the face of, "I guess this is my life, now."

This is the best short film I have ever seen Laughed too hard when he pulled out that calculator

I know your thinking "take the stairs". I've done exactly this after seeing the people in the elevator. So I fly up the stairs 5 floors up only to find it locked. Go back downstairs the way I came and it too is locked. Talk about a F'd up hospital that had this type of arrangement. The security camera picked me up and they came to the rescue. LoL.

The main actor is quite good.

1:18 I started dying lol. I do this EVERY TIME I get in an elevator. I count in my head tho lol

I couldn’t stop laughing ever since he pulled the calculator out!

Maybe there is an obesity treatment center on the left.

LOL! Absolutely hilarious! Brilliant work, Greg! Your expressions are priceless. :)

My mind was screaming "social distancing" when he was in the first elevator and when they started coughing in the second elevator i could feel their cough through the screen and had to wash my hands after the video was over😷

The two-note inspired Jaws theme was a... stroke of genius, lol :) Great work, thanks!

i thought the second one would fall

Better than most of the short films I have seen on youtube. I am sick of hallucinations and illusion based short films, this was pretty refreshing.

So funny! Just when he thought he was out of danger.... Thanks for sharing.

My jaw dropped at the same time his dropped 😂 like-“no way! This ain’t happening’! I gotta get outta here!” Me yelling at the guy like-“tell them people to get out your way and move before you stuck in there!” 🤣 These people ain’t notice the elevator drop??😂

I like this short film more than all that I've seen so far! Most are always dramas or thrillers but this made me laugh pretty hard. Well done

LMFAO I LOVE THIS. "Swine Flu Treatment Center" I'M DEAD

this was hilarious LOL definitely enjoyed watching

Love the music...great video. No need for a script. Outstanding. 2022 looking good.

On the next floor people got in the elevator returning from the building cafeteria. Todays special: hot chili and bean burritos!

This made me laugh pretty hard. I love it!

I love how that guy accurately guesses the weight of those people

This film was portrayed as exact situation. Excellent👍

April 3, 2020. Relevant AF.

That has to be the Jones BBQ Foot Massage dude

I couldn't stop laughing when someone sneezed on his hair. Thanks for movie .

Brilliant! Can't wait to see his "Road Dog"

When he started doing calculations! 🤣

Excellent! Without spoiling anything, I've done what he did (without a calculator) on several elevator rides. Very funny!

Another lovely one! I really enjoy Chris as an actor; he has the perfect face!

Amen to stairs. Thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend. 🙏

What did one elevator say to the other elevator? I think I'm coming down with something.

You notice how everyone getting on the elevator are plus size peoples. He constantly getting push further in the back. LOL......

Loved this! Great concept.

Genius! I hooted with laughter!

moral of the story: take the stairs

Brilliant!!

He jumped out of the frying pan into the fire. Still recommending after all these years. 😂

LOL! I cringed when everyone started coughing and died when the sign was revealed. Great job!

this is very well done

😂😂😂 As the saying goes " Out of the frying pan into the fire"

L.O.L.! Funnist shrot film ive ever seen! :D :P i loooove it i love it i love it i love it!!! more please gregory (like that one pope a few years ago u know haha)

LOL. Hilarious. Bravo. Never has the number 2001 made me laugh so hard!

After watching this... I’m still going to avoid the stairs

He escaped the rain, by running into the storm

Well done. Brilliant. Great directors tell stories with less dialogue.

O man I died laughing 😂. Needed this. Good video.👌🏽

THAT was good! I've been looking for a long while at other videos for inspiration for a series that I'm doing that kind of has some subtle humor in it, but nothing NEAR the calibur of this film.. Very good stuff, guys. Keep it up! :)

Whatching it in Coronao time hits different..

I´m going to use this short in my ESL C1 class for a discussion on COMMUNICATION. Based on the video, "The Elevator" appears to convey a message about communication, particularly nonverbal communication, and the importance of being aware of one's surroundings and making informed decisions based on observation.

The comedy is on point. Well presented movie.

Usually not a big fan of shorts, but this one was great :) Well done.

Screw this I'm takin the stairs from now on.

I lost it on the "JAWS" Sound

I'm still laughing, and so needed a good one today

Elevators can withstand way more than 2,000 pounds, its just there to make sure idiots don't try to push it above the actual capacity.

Quite real for anyone who ever worked in an Office Tower. I've been on an elevator where an incredibly obese couple got on with a few less folk than the max allowable & the elevator actually shook until near 1/2 the other people got off, whom I suspected did so out of fear. Also, haven't been sick with the flu at all since no longer working in an Office. Astounding how many A holes feel the need to share their disease as though revenge on the rest of us because they got sick, open mouth coughing in an enclosed space etc.

Excellent little movie!

I am glad that people can make films and laugh together. Mankind is the only species I've known to do it.

3:04 the girl on the left, LMAO🤣🤣🤣

2:12 OH LAWWWD HE COMING

Excellent job director. I enjoyed this.

Great Blog! Thanks for sharing this one!!!!!

Got the damn tune stuck in my head lol

Moral: When something like that happens, just think that it is not a good day for you.

“Kids, what did we learn today?” 🤣

Wow, can you imagine if this had been released during the pandemic?

Oh my gosh, I literally laughed my butt off. I could totally see myself doing that in a elevator. xD

Exactly why I hate elevators. That's why I always take the stairs -- especially in a hospital or medical building. But it was a funny short film.

Great production on this! So well done!

Very good, easy does it with the script. Love the short film, cool.

When that fat red guy started walking, LOOOL

why did i get this in school

LOL!!!!! Out of the frying pan and into the fire!!! Excellent!!!

So stairs is best :) his smile at 2:42 is great!
