i know someone who got hurt in an elevator while carrying a flat of Pepsi. He sued the elevator co. and pepsi, and won . He lives on a huge estate in Maryland now. and no longer has to work!!!
they are just enjoying the moment unaware that that is not the end of their story.
No surprise that he crashed but the aircraft manufacturer was held liable. Probably for not having a label "Do not try to fly the aircraft from other than the designated seating positions."
