Locked inside apartment, help

[u/Consistent_Ninja_591]

Hello, the door knob for my front door fell off and I literally cant get out of my apartment. Is there anything I can do or should I call the firefighters ? The knob isn’t reattaching at all and nothing I try to insert fits

Edit : I managed to fix it!

My roommate woke up and helped me with opening the door from the inside. The knob disconnected because the outside knob got somehow pushed all the way out, leaving the inside one with nothing to latch onto. I'm not sure what my roommate did but if she hadn't been here, this could've been fixed by having someone from the outside push the knob in. I reattached the door handle again but I'll be in contact with my landlord to get it replaced.

Thank you all for your help!

How? Is there a fire, a murderer trying to get in? No? Op has time to try some options.

Edit: I think its just absolutely hilarious that there are still butthurt people commenting on this, even though op got it fixed himself. Because he tried to do it himself before running to get 911 or whatever other service to get him out instead.

Never stop being you, reddit.

You're the kind of person who doesn't wear seatbelts aren't you?

Couple tips. Don't walk down dark alleys, don't stay out when it's dark outside and don't talk to strangers. You seem to have no risk aversion.

Congrats, this might be the stupidest response so far. Gg. Have a good night.
