Jesus, you can't make up this kind of horrible stuff.

Elevators always gave me the creeps, add yet another horrifying story associated with one.

Quote:
Nunez had given birth to her daughter, Triana, via Caesarean section and was on her way to a maternity ward at the time of the incident, The Sun reported.

Nunez's stretcher was pushed on to the elevator -- which suddenly moved upwards before the stretcher was fully inside, trapping Nunez, whose head was reportedly stuck between the roof and the elevator frame.

Firefighters needed about two hours to reach Nunez's body, according to local reports.

This is horrible. I didn't want to read this, but I couldn't figure out how it happened. I haven't liked elevators since I got stuck in one many years ago. It wasn't for long, but it was long enough.
The coffee was sold at scalding temperatures, much hotter than necessary and she also attempted to settle the case for much less than she was ultimately awarded but the company refused. People should read up on that case before using it as an example of American greed and/or stupidity. Her injuries were extremely severe.
