SUPER LOW ON OIL! Montgomery death trap elevator at the Pentagon City Mall Garage (Nordstrom Side)

(📹 6/28/2024) NEW LOW ON OIL RECORD ALERT! This was low on oil for 10 seconds, which beat my previous record of 7 seconds.
At least they somewhat have improved this death trap since they finally made this brighter and fixed the door operator situation that happened on the roof.
I was trying my best not to laugh out loud on video, but this was that awful that I kinda had to.
