Sneak Preview Trial Crash Test Garage Attic Elevator Emergency Brake in Minneapolis

We built the elevator/lift. We got comments about safety and added fall arresters. I started thinking about a real braking system. Designed it, built it, and it worked. But we never tested it in a free fall situation with weight on it. Until now. We added 300lbs of weight and cut the rope. Here is a sneak preview. Full video is coming soon.
