Papa Laz, you're not this guy, are you?

but would you fight them if they were disabled?
If they can climb onto the top of a moving monorail/cable car, they are, in my view, sufficiently able bodied for it to be OK to defeat them in life or death combat, and then make a laboured pun/pithy joke about it!
but would you fight them if they were disabled?
what if you fight them so hard they become disabled?
You don;t need to be chased by this man on a cable car for sure..

then you've both proven yourself as a man and taught someone a lesson, maybe that bad guy will have to spend weeks in hopsital thinking about their life choices, probably going to to set up a charity 'Used to be Bad UK' for the newly reformed.
you've helped both the train passengers, your parent's sense of achievement/pride and the wider community in the long run. well done, treat yourself to a biscuit.
Papa Laz, wasn't Chadwick House by any chance? That's the only paternoster I've ever ridden in.
@ philconsequence - haven't you watched these movies? This is the scenario: you turn away from the bad guy, brimming with positive thoughts about life, rehabilitation and the benefits of vigilante justice... which is when said Bad Guy (in slow motion) takes advantage of your distraction, rises and whips out his switchblade...
You'll be lucky to get half way through your biscuit.
its ok, cos then you see the low beam, sign or incoming misile coming, duck and it knocks the bad guy off the top of the train.
But what happens to the rest of your biscuit?
well if its been built into the plot that you never get to finish the biscuit, then we'll save it for the final scene in the trilogy, ideally to be eaten on a beach as the sun sets
and depending on the genre, be stolen by a pesky bird or something... or the dog you adopted as your partner in the 2nd reel... Angry face -freeze frame - Music - credits
Along with "your little Chinese Chick" *
* Die Hard 4.0, where Brucie really kicksbuttowski..
I worry that the audience will dismiss the biscuit device altogether and won't appreciate the irony of our hero's biscuit consumption at what - for biscuit eaters worldwide - is a pretty inappropriate location/time.
The rest of the climax, though, is a sure-fire winner! 😉
I saw Papa Laz yesterday and can confirm that he is Alan Rickman.
[i]Last time i was in Sheffield university arts tower there was one there and many people had ridden it for a full circuit.
There was, I was one of them.

Me too Me too 🙂
Bit scary. Shakes like a shakey thing with the shakes.
Saddly none at work i checked.
Scariest lift was in the middle east the lift set off and the floor followed about 2 seconds later and the thin plywood floor was bowed beyond description. I wedged myself in a corner whilst the local looked at me like i was soft or insane I was a smidge away from screaming tbh
Last time i was in Sheffield university arts tower there was one there and many people had ridden it for a full circuit.
I was so disappointed that the paternosta lift didn't flip over at the top and come back down the other way up
That would have been awesome 🙂

I worked somewhere that had the lift emergency call button programmed to what we think was the installation engineer's mum for some months (Noted during snagging) rather than the 24hr call centre.
Papa Lazarou / Coyote, I can confirm that Chadwick house no longer has the paternoster lifts 🙁
I too have ridden the Paternosa doofer fun lift in the Sheffield Uni arts tower. Ace fun.
I was so disappointed that the paternosta lift didn't flip over at the top and come back down the other way up
Me too
Back in the 80s, there used to be one of these in the Engineering Science building at Oxford University. Did work experience there and 'accidently' did a full circuit more than once.
It's the voice recognition ones you need I look out for
I'm going to get some t-shirts made..
"i've ridden the arts tower paternoster"
Do it Pook, there are more than enough people around...
Trapped in an Elevator for 41 Hours:
NB- he appears to go for the 'roof hatch' option after approximately 24hours 😀
