Steve Smith gets stuck in lift for almost an hour, survives ordeal with M&M's

"That's 55 minutes I'll probably never get back," he said with a laugh after he was safely back in his room

Australian batsman Steve Smith has had plenty of ups and downs in his career which probably prepared him for when his evening plans were ruined on December 30 after being trapped in an elevator between floors for 55 minutes before he was rescued.

Smith was dismissed in the nervous 90s when he captained the side in the second Ashes test win in Adelaide but kept his nerve — and his humour — in the lift as he contacted his team mates for help before recording his ordeal on Instagram.
