I don’t pay to ride an elevator for fun. Elevators are not intended to “thrill” you.
After the elevator messed up in my building while I was in it, I used the steps a lot more.
Elevators have emergency mechanisms built-in, and I’m sure this ride did also. The young lady was evidently injured by a broken cable, had it been an uncontrolled fall most likely everyone onboard would have been killed or injured.
I stick to Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride from now on...
