Twitter To The Rescue! Quest Crew Tweets To Be Saved From...

Posted on April 27, 2009 - 2:00pm by terra I have to say, I thought Twitter was overkill. Why the hell do you want to know what someone is up to 24/7?? But, it turns out, Twitter's a great emergency tool. The guys of Quest, last season's winners of MTV's America's Best Dance Crew, can thank their lucky tweets for Twitter getting them out of trouble.



The crew was stuck in an elevator for over an hour while at a performance at San Diego State University and used Twitter to get their way out.  While trapped, the crew had received dozens of tweets from fans who were tweeting about the incident. A friend who was at the event with the group (but not in the elevator) received the tweet and called the fire department.



Without water and crammed in a tiny space, the dancers tried to relieve the anxiety with jokes until finally rescued by firemen.

Watch their hot and steamy "vertical adventure" and rescue. So many random thoughts come to mind when you're stuck in an elevator...

Hundreds of fans were waiting outside the elevator to sign autographs when the fire department opened the doors. Great thinking, folks... follow up claustrophobia with more claustrophobia.
