The firemen could get you out with a couple of ladders to the floor

Not a practical way to get the people out...try firemen going up to
the control room and using the manual winch to bring the lift to the
nearest floor. ;-)

What if it won't move ?

Then the guy who designed it should be shot.
A lift does not get stuck,its the electrical circuitry that takes a
wobbler.

Not necessarily. As noted earlier, if the cable fails then the cage
locks into its surroundings. In that situation, I guess the ladder is
the only option.
