This lift started going backwards at a high rate of speed. Some folks got make the beast with two backsed up before they figured out to try and bail early.  :o  I see now that it’s from 13.

That group of four were flung wildly!

The first few in the video were blessed to have the chair go overhead rather than hit them. It would have been very bad otherwise.

Why is there no emergency stop button?

Even all my lowly machines have one.

Maybe the lift operator was asleep at the wheel.

Lifts in the states have E-stop buttons.

Or the E stop failed.
