For the 32-year-old Maja Grønlund was a trip to the local tanning salon the clean trip in hell.
In april, she had to namely spend the night in Ringsted department of ClubTan, because the lid of the sun bed she lay in, slammed in, and she did not have the opportunity to get it up.
this led to The ten hours with the screams and weeping of the young woman, who, for good reasons, had not taken his mobile phone with check in solariesengen, and therefore could not contact anyone to tell that she was locked up.
she says to Ekstra Bladet.
I went up to take the sun, as it was in a bit of ten in the evening. I had been lying there for maybe ten minutes when I hear a big bang. My first thought is that the whole thing could be collapsed around me, so loud was the noise, says Maja Grønlund.
She tried desperately to get the lid from solsengen up, but without much luck. The sun drove on, while Maja Grønlund was caught, but after the 17 minutes, she had paid for turned out the light.
Could not get air
Maja Grønlund was in the solsengen, while she tried to get free. Around midnight turned off all the light in the center.
– There are shouts and cries, I yet more. I actually get knocked plexiglasset, covering for the tubes, so it falls down over me.
The amount of air, which she had felt were available, were suddenly reduced after the glass covered for her.
– It feels like I get even less oxygen, and I start to hyperventilere. I’ll have to hold the plate up to get air.
I really felt that I was buried alive, she says.
as the hours went by, it became clear to Maja Grønlund, that did not come to save her.
Out in the real world was her boyfriend started to become concerned because she had not come home from his tour in the solarium.
Kasper Kærholt tried to call his girlfriend, but when she after a few hours, took the phone, he decided to call the owner of the solcenteret.
He told him, that I probably just had fallen asleep, and even though the doors were locked, so I could always get out of there. When he as not heard from me, he called also to the police, who said the same thing, that I probably was sleeping in there.
Gave up
Kasper did not, however, up and phoned the police several times, but they told him that there was not gone long enough for Maja Grønlund was a missing person.
on the morning could I get a hold of the owner again, who told him that there was a cleaning lady, who lived nearby, who would come down with a key.
– Kasper drove down to get to me, and since the door was open he heard me lie and scream. When I heard his voice, I was almost in a panic, because I just wanted out.
in the beginning It was not possible for Kasper to get to his girlfriend, because the cleaning lady with the key to the cabin was not appeared. Instead, he chose to retrieve a shovel from his car and smash the glass door.
I had told him that I felt I had more air. And when he came up to me, he tried to pull the lid up with your arms, but even though he is both big and strong, he could not. He tried to the last with all his strength and could just open it ten centimeters, so I could roll out of there, tells Maja Grønlund.

May in the psychiatric unit
She sat subsequently in the fetal position naked among glasskårene and just wanted out.
I just wanted to get away, but my boyfriend got me just in a shirt, some sandals and panties, before I ran out of there.
As the pair reached out, popped the cleaning lady finally up.
– She said to us: ‘Well, she’s out’, and she was angry that we had smashed the passenger compartment. I was gone so much panic in there that I had peed in solariesengen, so it was also all over the place.
then had to Maja Grønlund a trip to the psychiatric reception, because she had it so bad.
She ended up getting some pills, but otherwise there was not much help to be had.
– the Owner was not very sweet, and I didn’t talk with him afterwards. Instead, I spoke with the director of ClubTan, who sent me flowers and said that they would pay for my psychologist.
Living with disfigurement
Maja Grønlund ended up with to get found stress and anxiety and to this day, she lives still with the consequences of incarceration.
– The fill is still very much in my everyday life. I could for a long time do not go alone on the toilet, and I would rather not have, that the door was closed. My voice is still not completely normal, because I cried so much in the hours. I dodge mirrors, and I still can only sleep if the light is on.
Maja Grønlund also tells that she in the start, led much of the nightmare and peed in the bed.
– The timer has set itself deep within me.
According to Maja Grønlund has the insurance company behind the ClubTan denied her compensation, because they do not believe it is the chain of responsibility. This is because it was solariesengens spring, which went into pieces while she was in there.
The calls now Maja Grønlund to make contact with the manufacturer of the solariesengen, which is an unknown company in the Uk.
– I don’t know what I should do now.
