Denassee vs. the Vacuum Cleaner


Julain, Chris, and Tim have a small storage closet in their apartment where they keep their vacuum cleaner. Denassee Does not believe the space is large enough for both a person and the vacuum cleaner to fit inside and close the door. After attempting this and then proving himself wrong, Julian, Chris, and Tim hear the vacuum cleaner turn on, followed by shouting and multiple thuds.  The diameter of the closet is 35x30x70.  Denassee weighs 165 lbs and is 5’10”. The vacuum cleaner weighs 30 lbs and is made of hard plastic.
Question: given the dimensions of the closet, the total mass of Denassee, and the total mass and density of the vacuum cleaner, who would win in a fight?
