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.


Okay, so you shoot him. Then what? The people are still stuck.
