A doctor got stuck in a lift before his first surgery and went viral

A medical student’s first operation is probably one of the most stressful things they will have to undergo.

For Joseph, who was on his way to his, getting stuck in an elevator en route is not ideal.

In fact, it’s equal parts terrifying and infuriating.

He handled it well though, and decided to use Snapchat to record his spiral to Lord-of-the-Flies-levels of insanity.

Luckily he was rescued, and he probably went on to succeed in his operation.

But not before he became an online sensation.
