I was changing the doorknob and the air conditioner blew the door shut, with both knobs on the other side...now I am trapped in here. I've been here all day, please help. I'm very hungry, and I am on the third floor so the window is not an option. Yes, I know what a dumbass I am.

If you have a phone call the police and have them come over and let you out. You can get there phone number on the Internet if you don't want to dial 911. Other that that you can send an e-mail to a friend of family friend to come over. Or you could scream your head off and someone will call the police for you. Good luck.

Get a screwdriver and work the knob mechanism with that. Otherwise get on the phone or internet and call\email\IM a friend to come let you out. If that fails, email your local law enforcement or fire department and have them come over. Or just knock the door down. Good luck!

You could try kicking the door down. Or calling 911. Or yelling out the window for help. Or emailing your friend who lives next door so that they will come let you out.

If you are serious (he, he) then try a screwdriver, or screwdriver shaped item in the door hardware where the knob pins went through it and twist. You should be able to manipulate the action by hand.

Plug off your modem, and use the phone to call your mom. Don't you have any cell phone? Don't you have any neighbour that could hear you scream? Call the police. And if you couldn't do all that, post a question again containing your address and your name. A lot of people should be free to help you

lol, i did the same thing once one night late wen I didn't realise that when I closed the door in here that it couldn't be opened from this side.
Thankfully the banging on the door woke the cat who in turn woke up my man and he got me out.
Hey, maybe Eddie, they don't have a phone in that room. They might have cable broadband, like me, and that doesn't constitute a telephone, dumba$$

The hinges should be on your side of the door. Use something to get a grip on the pins and pull them out. You should be able to remove the door, or at least crack it enough to get out.

If the screwdriver doesn't work, use it to remover the hinge pins (those things that look like nails in the hinge) and take the door off.

Forget the doorknob...take it off the hinges.
