@gettingwarmer There are many safety systems to prevent an elevator from free falling. There are usually 6 or 8 cables suspending the elevator that are each capable of holding more than the elevators weight. If the elevator begins to travel too fast, the brakes will hold it. So you really have nothing to worry about!
do they light up the shaft only when people are working in them? when i look between the space between the building floor and the elevator car, its always dark! maybe something is in the way making it look dark! i'm afraid of elevators, falling down the shaft.
@TheDylanJoyce same.. when an elevator repair man comes to my grandmas appartment building he turns the lights on and then im scared to looking inside the shaft beacuse i am affraid the doors will open and i will fall inside
@stoopkid80 rofl!! You're american and you don't know that there's words "lift" and "elevator" which means the same fucking thing :O You americans are so fucking stupid.. Even peoples who doesn't speak english know that what's elevator or lift
Only complete RETARDS say stuff like that. And, you don't say 'peoples'. People who assume other things without even KNOWING THEM. You sir, are the most idiotic person I have ever met.
@stoopkid80 Actually you're the retard here. You think that everybody have to speak american english and when somewhere reads "lift" you have to think that it's mistake and the right word is "elevator." Btw I'm not British or something -.- Try to speak different language yourself... I just don't get that why Americans have to think that American English is better than the real English
Hurry, Anakin! Shoot your rope out to the side!

0:07 there goes the counterweight :) So much for the movies where if an elevator goes to the top floor you get impaled by a bunch of spikes.
