TAMPA - A mystery at Tampa International Airport surrounding the bizarre death of 31 year old Chad Wolfe.

He was found dead at the bottom of an elevator shaft Friday.

Wolfe, from Pennslyvania, arrived on a flight from Atlanta with his girlfriend Jessica Price.

Loved ones say they had plans to visit Bike Week in Daytona.

Its believed Wolfe rode the elevator from the 3rd floor -- to the 7th floor short term garage...they found his luggage and a cell phone there.

That's where the questions begin. Elevator expert Don Cassell says pulling the doors apart of a working elevator is nearly impossible.

Airport officials say there's no surveillance video on the 7th floor of the garage showing the elevator area.

It's also unclear where Wolfe's girlfriend was when this happened.

Travelers say the gruesome discovery will be hard not to think about.
