Trapped in a lift
Nine years ago, Nicholas White got stuck in a lift. For 41 hours.
The CCTV recording of his ordeal was put online two weeks ago as part of a New Yorker article on the lives of elevators. The Youtube version alone now has almost 3 million views, there are numerous parodies and White has become something of an internet celebrity.
We'll try and speak to him for Saturday's programme.
Update
Here's a long (13 minutes) version of the interview we did today. Nick mentions his website, which can be found at 41hours.com.

iPM has a New York office? Very plush. Good to hear that the budget cuts aren't biting!

Well, we mainly only use our New York pad as a stop-off point en route to our private island...
