Let's take out the brakes, shall we?

 Reference


As an engineer, I was puzzled by this crash, since I saw a two-cable system.  In our part of the world, an elevator has many cables and a couple of independent braking systems.  That's because elevators used to fall all the time, and who would live in a 70 story condo then?  The Elevator Code is inches thick, if you would bother to print it.

On the other side of the world, we have the Italians.
