If you were in an elevator and it started to fall...

[Yossarian]

I would open the elevator doors just as it was about to hit and step out. It works for Bugs Bunny.

 

Seriously though, if the elevator was freefalling, you'd be able to float around like the astronauts do on TV. COOL

Exactly, you would be wieghtless, even if you had time and tried to stay on the floor, you couldn't.

Use the walls to lay my ass down on the floor and hope it feels like falling off a bunk bed.

I agree.

"Crazy, not stupid"

I've got you all beat.

I'd fire up the laptop with WiFi and post about it on ATOT.

"HELP --- I'M ON THE 38TH FLOOR AND THE ELEVATOR IS DROPPING, WTF DO I DO????"

In obnoxious caps of course.

I guess going splat would be quicker then drowning...

By distributing your weight evenly? That's what I figured... I heard if your parachute doesn't open when you skydive, you should arrange it so your body hits the ground flat (lying on your stomach, weight evenly distributed). Every bone in your body may shatter, but you have a better chance of living that way.

I don't think I'd remember that if I was freefalling, but... it's good to know, just in case.

Should you lie on your stomach in an elevator too?

As in, the cord snapped and you were falling quickly (to almost certain doom)...

What would you do?

Jump up and down, lie flat on the bottom, or spend the last few seconds of your life trying to escape through the roof of the elevator?







I've been watching too many movies.

Grab the nearest chicks breats :Q

Is this even possible anymore? Don't all elevators have some kind of security feature that doesn't use the cables?

 

[Ameesh]

if it was a long fall i would try to climb out the top of the elevator cause if you are inside you are dead.

 

[batmang]

hrmm, id jump right before hitting the ground. and then like..... id be good to go.

This answers all Questions, and gives you someone to call if it does...

GET AWAY FROM ME Rossman.

I would have taken the stairs to begin with, thus avoiding the whole incident.
