IIRC there's a giant spring thing at the bottom meant to soften the impact in the case of an emergency like that.
In any case, if you're not crippled, you shouldn't use the elevator anyway. Stairs don't get stuck.

That's a pretty stupid failsafe, since even with a spring you die anyway. Only after you're dead, the thing bounces up again.

"spring thing". Not actually a spring. Highly technical terminology, I know.
Half-remembered and I don't know from where or really care, could be wrong or thinking of something else entirely.

Stairs are good exercise as well. I park on the 8th floor of a garage for work and never take the elevator
Fuck yeah. Always park far away. The same time it takes to look for a spot can be used toning your calves.
