You Won’t Believe What Escape Room Staff Have Seen People Do—Prepare to Be Shocked and Amused!
I didn’t work at one but I seen someone fall through the ceiling while me and my friends were in the waiting room.
They really stressed that you shouldn’t enter the ceiling to try to escape after that.
I went with a group of 10. First room, we solved all the mini puzzles, but we couldn’t figure out the letter combination lock. There were words written on the wall so we started trying them. We couldn’t get it…so eventually my friends were like…hey, this window opens and there is a key against the other wall. Maybe we’re supposed to grab that key. So we used a fishing pole to try and grab it, but it was too far. Next thing I know, a guy lifted me up and pushed me through the window. And in doing so, the fake wall broke. They let us finish and we had the second lowest time for completing it, but we got a stern talking to about not going through windows. And they told us that in the first room, we had to press a button on a flashlight twice and it turns into a black light and the combination was written next to the door.
Lots of things can be credited to nerves, first time, or just “whoops” moments.
I’ve had two groups now that immediately try every code they find on the door they entered from. Would you really be happy if the first code you found let you escaped? Seems like a waste of money to me, but hey, you guys do you.
My brother owns some escape rooms, so this story is from him. In one of the rooms is a sink, and down the drain is a key (the drain comes approx 6-7” below the sink). There is a magnet on a stick in the room you are supposed to find to retrieve the key. Instead one guy RIPPED THE SINK OFF THE WALL to get the key out instead.
People are intelligent y’all.
