Forum:Pointless Glitch Discovery

Just wanted to share a weird thing I discovered about the elevator to Fontaine's apartment in Mercury Suites. When you reach the top, Fontaine's apartment level, it is possible to sneak around in back of the elevator enclosure. Once there, you can push the elevator button from the other side - while you are outside the elevator. The elevator will descend without you, and you will be frozen in place until the elevator reaches the lobby floor, evidenced by a distant "ding." Once you can move again, there is a metal grate in front of you keeping you from reaching the elevator shaft. However, if you circle around to the side of the shaft, there is no grate. You can walk forward and fall to your death down the shaft. if you edge forward carefully and stand just on the edge of the shaft, then push the elevator button again, the elevator car will come back up and pick you up on it's roof. From there it seems to be impossible to do anything else. I tried different strategies to trigger the button from up there, hoping to catch a ride to the mysterious Mercury Suites fourth floor, or an entrance to Cohen's locked room. You can jump off though, and emerge from the elevator enclosure to continue your game. I know it's not very interesting, but discovering stuff like this gives me a "lift."
