Elevator Chime World Record? + Nudge Mode Glitch on an Otis Series 1!

[Recorded on 3-30-21 at 4:26pm] If you think seven chimes is bad the first time, get ready for what comes next... let's just say it's a few more than seven. If you've ever seen an elevator chime more times than this at once, comment down below!

To sum up the issue: while the doors were closing, I pressed the "down" button on the elevator, then the doors got stuck while reopening. Because this elevator has a glitch where the chime doesn't stop until the doors fully open, it went well past the normal two chimes for down and the seven this elevator usually makes. It wasn't until the nudge mode timer kicked in that the doors finally shut and the chime stopped. However, the elevator remained in nudge mode, reopened on the third floor, and the buzzer went off. Later on, I went down to the third floor myself, and while the chime didn't go crazy again, the elevator went into nudge mode and stopped at the second floor (without anyone calling it) and the buzzer once again went off.
