7 men in a lift

Picture the scene - 7 men, weary after a day of work and a tough game of football, followed by 2 extra large pizzas. This was the start of it all for these 7 men - an ordeal they would remember forever.

The men, heavier than at the start of the evening, stepped into the lift. One man said "If the doors close and the lift goes 'clunk' then we are stuck!"
Then it came. The 'clunk'.

We were stuck!
We pressed the emergency button. Nothing happened.
We tried ringing someone on our phones. We had no signal.
We shouted and someone heard us. Hurray!

That person then called the Fire Brigade who came to rescue us. There was one nice fireman (who was somewhat ambiguous gender wise) and a firelady. Needless to say we were suitably embarrassed at having taken the lift DOWN 2 floors and then having to be rescued by a lady fireman.

Having said this, we all made it out safely with nothing but bruised egos and expended laughter muscles.
