Modern elevators will not fall unless they are extensively sabotaged. 

In 1857,  Elisha Otis, of the Otis Elevator Company introduced the Otis Elevator Brake, now a standard component of all elevators. He advertised it by getting in an elevator, riding it to the top, and then ordering that the cable supporting the elevator be cut.

When the elevator is held up by the tension in the cable above, that same tension holds the braking mechanism in a position where it doesn’t touch anything. But if the tension goes away, a spring is released which causes the prongs of the elevator break to thrust outward, locking into a row of teeth running down the side of the elevator shaft and making the elevator completely immobile until repaired.

You can be trapped in an elevator, but you cannot fall in an elevator.

This is actually really comforting thank you

And if you’re also worried about the cable snapping each cable needs to be able to hold up the weight of an elevator at 40% capacity. Your standard elevator has 8 of those cables. You are very very very safe in elevators and like the above commentor said there are teeth along the elevator tracks that shut the second tension is released and the elevator starts falling.

I remember watching the Mythbusters test the “jump right as it hits” thing and they showed some of the safety stuff they had to disable and talked about how there was really no way in the first place to get it to drop without removing multiple redundant systems.

(Side note, the jumping did not work and Buster was obliterated.)

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

I love people with knowledge like this. Absolutely fabulous.

After much introspection and soul searching I've turned over a new leaf and have decided to continue making poison swamps 😌

[grumpybunnygames]

In light of recent events...

let her speak!!!

[smstransformers]

Always rolling my eyes at non lesbians insistence to have men as the focus. Yes their friendship is important but so is her sexuality. She’s a lesbian in a popular Netflix show. Don’t push her sexuality and potential romance away just for some guy who is kind of funny. Especially since they were building romance for her in the last season?? Lesbian love is always second to u guys and you refuse to listen bc god forbid a lesbian have an opinion about how we are represented.

[djotime]

let her speak!!!

[smstransformers]

Non lesbians love to speak huh

[redheadbigshoes]

I don’t know what I hate the most, if it’s “everyone is a little bi” or “sexuality is fluid” shit

Both incredibly annoying

[princessefemmelesbian]

Aren’t they the same thing?

[redheadbigshoes]

I don’t really see them being the same though they harm the same.

I feel like the first means everyone is in the mspec already so it’s like the person telling you they don’t believe you’re not attracted to the opposite gender.

The second one feels more like “I know you’re not attracted to the opposite gender, but I’m telling you you will be”

[jinxed-mutt]

Reminder that black femmes and butches are fucking vital to the lesbian community ESPECIALLY the gender queer portion of the community and insinuating that they aren’t femme “enough” or saying black butches “don’t count” is fucking idiotic and you don’t have a fucking place in this community or anywhere near my fucking blog.

Black lesbians I love you. You deserve the world and I will do my best and put my best fucking foot forward in helping make my blog a safe space for you. Never be afraid to let me know if someone who follows me or I follow is acting up. I want to be a comforting presence for you here and wholeheartedly would fight for you.

And for anyone who has the fucking nerve to say some stupid shit or make a safe space for people who do. Unfollow me immediately and also maybe drown yourself <3

what a great month to not be attracted to men 😌

I'm too stressed and overwhelmed to write this all out again but I have other posts explaining fully. I'm a chronically ill black lesbian, I'm trying to pay a lot of medical bills, I also recently just had covid (including on my birthday 🙃) which means I missed work for 9 full days. and all my other posts are losing traction so I never reach goal and continue to fall further behind.

Please help if you can I'm so tired and need more appts but need to pay certain amounts of the previous ones before the next. Black women recieve terrible Healthcare in this country and it took 15 years to get a good doctor. Please help me not continue to suffer. I'm just...exhausted.

Me and my gf, a Trans lesbian are paycheck to paycheck trying to continue my care (as well as her own less) while working and maintaining our home and utilities bills as well. Anything will help us at all even purchasing food from our wishlist so we don't starve while paying medical bills

TLDR: chronically ill black lesbian needs to pay for continued health care; she and trans lesbian gf need funds for bills as well after getting covid and missing work

Tbh this is more dystopian than some of the bs British and western media have made up about China and North Korea.

Government mandated sad time. No fun allowed. Look at this dead old bitch and cry
