It's more than one cable? I had a cable slip on my once... doors open it went down until it bottomed out. (and faster than normal, but far from free-falling)

- Doxin 8y agoYour average elevator has iirc 7 or 8 cables, each individually capable of bearing twice the load of a full cabin. Cable slip is very unlikely (though not impossible). Something definitely went awry in that situation which is very rare.
