A security camera recorded the terrifying moment that happened on August 26. As it seems, the elevator suddenly takes a sharp “plunge”, hurling all three passengers inside. In fact one of the passengers, Lee hit the ceiling of the elevator.

“Everything was spinning. We were all thrown into the air before hitting the floor,” Lee told Newsflare while recounting the terrifying plunge.

Lee, who lives in an apartment on the 25th floor, recalled how the elevator “stopped on its way down.”

“Stuck and wouldn’t budge”he explained, adding that the elevator began to wobble as soon as it reached the fourth floor.

After the “dive”, Lee contacted both administrators and emergency serviceswhich transported the three victims to the hospital.

Lee suffered only minor bruising to his leg– however, another passenger reportedly suffered two fractures and is still in hospital. The condition of the third passenger remains unclear.

Relatives of the passengers claim they were lucky things didn’t turn out worse.
