Sorry, this sounds like a slightly unusual accident to me. Thanks anyway.

After reading the Google translation of the article I'm willing to accept this. There were apparently signs indicating that the elevator was not to be used for transporting cargo, and was also "for the exclusive use of people with special needs." There's also a pretty good diagram showing exactly how the accident occurred. Given all that he clearly should have known better. Thanks for sending this in!
