Phnom Penh, Cambodia: A technical error in an elevator has left a nine year old Cambodian boy dead. The hospital is Poly Clinic Hong En on Street 217.

The boy seems to press the elevator button, and then tries to open it himself. Then the elevator door opens prematurely and you can see that it's dark with no elevator in it, and he mistakenly enters anyways.

Dear god! Poor child... : (

Hope the parents don't see the video. Can't imagine how haunting this is to watch one's child last moments.

That is so heartbreaking.

Yeah, I thought about that, then thought there's just no way they haven't seen it.

Wow, that's really awful. Worse, he was at a hospital, so he probably wasn't feeling great to begin with.

I didn't even watch the video but I assume it shows the boy's actions and his fall.

Also, for those who watched, was this video recorded from a phone as the footage is played on screen?

I guess so too. No way to avoid it on social media. Can't imagine the parents' distress.
