>> [_] Anon 907079 that shud be tagged as anime you moron
>> [_] Anon 907111 the previous comments cant be real op: jumping wouldn't work. even if it did you wouldnt know when to jump. also if it did work and you knew the time to jump you would still get crushed by the roof of the elevator, or parts of it. urban legend i believe its called
>> [_] Anon 907117 >># oh i get it. cool theory
>> [_] Anon 907118 PHYSICS DONT WORK THAT WAY DUMBSHIT
>> [_] Anon 907122 >># have you ever experienced the feeling of falling in an elevator? have you ever tried it? how fast is the elevator falling? how far? you just don't know. i will try it next time my elevator falls
>> [_] Anon 907162 Mythbusters said it doesn't work and Mythbusters can't be wrong.
>> [_] Anon 907170 >># awesome logic. so because myth busters says so, the next time you're falling in an elavator, the only way to get out with your life is to just stand still and wait to hit the ground. solution: if you're standing on ground that is falling down to the ground, jump off of the ground that is falling before it touches the ground and you will survive.
>> [_] Anon 907183 Anyone who thinks this works is fucking moronic and doesn't seem to understand physics. The elevator falling also has you falling at the same rate as the elevator. If you jump you are merely decreasing your velocity by around 3 kilometers per hour, which is nothing compared to the rate the elevator is falling. Your jump is RELATIVE to the speed the elevator is falling at. This is like saying if you ran on top of a train going the opposite direction it was traveling at you could stay in the "same spot". This is TRUE if you can run FAST ENOUGH, but no human could do it realistically. The same is true for the elevator, if you could jump with enough force to completely neutralize the speed you're traveling at it would work, but no human could.
>> [_] Anon 907192 >># that is bullshit if you jump before it slams into the ground you will hit the top of the vator and either die or survive but then youll fall from that still at a fast speed I may add and that will be your death plus the evelvator crushing itself. Sure jumping may give you a sense that you may live but in the end its just fucking pointless. Maybe actually think and get your ass out of the elevator through the top and possibly jump off and grab the other cable or walls if they have ledges and try to save yourself that way
>> [_] Anon 907196 Elevators have a retarded amount of safety. I think they have 4-6 cables supporting them, each is capable of supporting the whole elevator alone. Even if ALL cables somehow break it has a a speedometer of sorts that detects if it's descending at too rapid a velocity. If that's the case it has big ass metal claws which release and dig into the wall halting or severely slowing the descent.
>> [_] Anon 907200 >># >># Neat! Those are two impressive walls of text that nobody gives a fuck about.
>> [_] Anon 907224 I think you're all wrong. If you're in a falling elevator, you're probably ALREADY stuck to the ceiling, in which case jumping at 3 KPH INCREASES the impact speed by 3 KPH
>> [_] Anon 907236 I think the real question here is if the elevator were falling while attached to a plane on a treadmill, WILL IT TAKE OFF?
>> [_] Anon 907243 Your dick would still be on the floor, so it would take full impact causing you to bust a nut.
>> [_] Anon 907245 >># This. Completely aside from that, this is retarded Honestly, urban myths of this stature must have been created by eight year olds. Fucking ridiculous.
>> [_] Anon 907278 ...This is better than bathroom sex. I need popcorn for something this entertaining!
>> [_] Anon 907280 >># Apparently some twelve year old future high school dropout discovered 4chan tonight, has mistaken bloody minded persistence in the face of abject failure for skilled trolling, and is up way past his bed time. Disregard that, I suck cocks
>> [_] Anon 907282 I actually heard that the best option is to lay flat on the floor. The impact will be distributed more evenly throughout your body, reducing the chance of breaking bones. However, if you're ever in a falling elevator, and you DO survive somehow, have fun waiting until they manage to rescue you.
>> [_] Anon 907291 The flash was horrible. HOWEVER... The pointless and excessively drawn out argument regarding it is lol-inspiring. Do continue.
>> [_] Anon 907344 >># You'd stick to the ceiling maaaaybe if the ceiling and the floor were thoroughly perforated, however this is likely not the case for your run-of-the-mill elevator. With no air resistance acting on you and slight resistance on the elevator assuming it isn't in another falling elevator, you'd be nearly weightless and then you'd be dead, unless you were in an elevator shaft in which case see various other posts for safety features. Some also have spring analogues and air compression chambers at the bottom to reduce the acceleration.
>> [_] Anon 907346 >># shrink the window horizontally dumbass
>> [_] Anon 907357 I've done that 's cool
>> [_] Anon 907365 Jump with enough force to completely counteract hundreds of stories of gravity? FUCK YEAH I CAN DO THAT EASILY
>> [_] Anon 907368 >># you're a pretty amazing guy
>> [_] Anon 907372 >># What if the electricity went out at the same time?
