The last of the video shows her standing by the left side of the door waving her hands and making random gestures. The video made the rounds on the internet and amassed over tens of thousands of views, as many found her behavior in equal parts strange and chilling. Additionally, the only notable findings in the toxicology report were multiple different medications to treat her bipolar disorder but there was no presence of alcohol or illegal drugs in her body at the time.
Only one person saw her prior to her death, a woman named Katie Orphan, the owner of The Last Bookstore, which Lam walked into and purchased presents to take to her family back home. An LA coroner issued a finding of accidental drowning, with bipolar disorder as a significant factor. Close Sign in. All rights reserved. Close this dialog window View image. I am so much more than that and these people are my reminders that I am very lucky.
Life is long and difficult and people will always be stupid and complain. There will be lots of these moments in the future and there have been a lot in the past. So what if everything is shit and all the plans have gone to hell. If I ask for help, someone might even be willing to spare a hand. The world is just awesome. Boom de ah dah. Finally, I think the post that best demonstrates the essence of Elisa Lam on Nouvelle Nouveau is the advice she gives an anonymous poster who tells Elisa that they love life but sometimes get so depressed.
Really, the designer of any therapy or therapist would be proud of what Elisa so kindly and eloquently offers this depressed person, and what she offers for all of us living with a mental illness. We number in the millions and we roam the internet feeling very lonely and desperately want some sort of human connection.
Therapy is time-consuming and seems pointless … You still need to do it. It takes a tremendous amount of energy to drag yourself out of this ditch. Put headphones on and blast music. Go for a walk. Talk to a friend. Do something you used to enjoy. On February 19, , twenty days after Lam was last seen, a hotel staffer was sent up to the roof of the hotel to check on the water tanks after several guest complaints about low pressure and murky water coming out of the taps.
According to the coroner featured in the docuseries, her autopsy revealed that she had not been taking the full dosage of her medication around the time of her death. But the startling behavior of Lam in the elevator and the enduring mystery of how she got up onto the locked roof and into the tank in the first place kept a community of YouTubers, Redditors, and internet sleuths suspicious about the circumstances and hunting for clues.
The documentary does its best to fact check a number of the most prominent conspiracy theories about the Lam case. For example, one theory claimed that the vocalist of a German metal band killed Lam , however Crime Scene notes that the musician was in Mexico at the time of the death. Without necessarily presenting new evidence, the documentary largely de-shrouds the mystery surrounding the case by featuring the firsthand testimony of the coroner, investigators, and staff from the Cecil Hotel who had previously not spoken publicly on the matter.
By the end of the four episodes, although the mystery of how Lam ended up in the water tank remains, the case is understood to be a tragedy related to a young woman's mental health, and not a paranormal horror story.
