The poor woman with the bra must've been terrified (stuck in a lift and a bloke takes out a Bowie!)
When I'm stuck in a lift I prefer to talk to the voices in my head - everybody else moves away from me.
LOL wel it's a long story. Basicall the lift was the service lift for a back stage area. I was in the crew, as was the young lady in question, and I had a bowie knife as have been rigging with hemp and needed something to cut it with. The lift had the buttons replaced with key switches, and there was no door open button, so we got in, pulled the gear in, and as the door closed, figured niether of us had a key. It was a choice of waiting for someone to use the key on the outside to call the lift, pressing the alarm bell (linked to the security office) or just picking the lock.. Plus, it was fun and more of a challange :p
Ah, those where the days.
