The hair-raising video of a patient lying on stretcher somehow making a miraculous escape from a mishap after a hospital elevator malfunctioned has been going viral on social media. The video was first shared on social media by a journalist Abhinay Deshpande and has since been viewed over two-hundred thousand times on Twitter.

The video shows two men carrying a patient lying on a stretcher. A man on the other side of the stretcher brings the stretcher inside while the other is standing outside with the stretcher stuck half-way between the elevator and the hallway. Somehow, the elevator malfunctions and moves down without the patient taken completely inside or outside.

Bystanders looking at the ordeal rush to somehow avert the potential crisis. A second part of the video shows how the men fell of the stretcher when the elevator malfunctioned. So far, the location and the hospital where the incident occurred, has not been reported.

Netizens on Twitter were shocked to see the videos. While most enquired whether the patient was fine after the mishap, others asked where the incident took place. “This is shameful!!! Is the patient safe? The lift company should be sued,” a Twitter user commented.

The video comes days after a similar incident occurred in Russia, where a man’s head was almost torn off by a lift.
