You get to see a sign that this is not dangerous, then the wheels driving the machine, and the cabin may shake a little bit. However, it does not flip over, and a few seconds later, you'll be on the way down and able to get off at whatever floor you like. > What if the power shuts off at the peak? Or worse, at the bottom in the less trafficked basement level? Then you're stuck in there just like you'd be stuck in most other elevators (or slightly less, since you might be able to get into the engine room if you don't mind the fact that it could restart at any time).
