I was stuck in a lift in Surabaya on a piss/business trip once with a mate who then proceeded to light a smoke and choke us and I desperately needed a piss.
The locals I think hand cranked it up very slowly and kept stopping, got annoyed knocked out a top panel and crawled away through a gap, was real drunk at the time.
Waited for yonks for my mate who wasn't concerned I had done a runner from the elevator. We still laugh about it now when we are on the piss.

Unfortunately, usually the office/shop staff aren't trained in how to open a lift.
