Weird And Dumb Ways Customers Tried To Solve Escape Rooms

Escape rooms aren't for everyone. While some of us appreciate the challenge of solving complex puzzles and using teamwork to overcome them, a lot of us look at a locked door and think "if I run at this door hard enough, I'm pretty sure I could burst through it like the Kool-Aid man." Sure, it defeats the whole purpose of the outing itself, but people still do it. Like, a lot.

An astounding number of people will try to get out of escape rooms by ripping doors from their hinges and sticking their fingers into lightbulb sockets. The thing is, they're technically not wrong. Damaging things and injuring yourself is a terrifically efficient way to escape an escape room. It doesn't really display a lot of puzzle-solving aptitude, but it does show your ability to think outside the box. And also your core strength. Here are some times people decided to make their own path through escape rooms.
