Not Very Reassuring

So, they just refurbished the elevators in my building downtown and I noticed these little plaques hanging under the floor buttons today.

Take a look -

Huh? "Little" danger that I am going to suffocate or plummet 40 stories to my death? Could we maybe define "little"? Cause I was sort of operating under the assumption that these things were neither airtight or designed to simply drop to the ground should some sort of disaster occur, and if that isn't that the case, well, I think I need a little more info.

And it never even crossed my mind that you might "run out of air" in an elevator. How the fuck does that happen?

Shit, even if it's true I don't wanna know, ok? Just let me keep thinking these things are 100% certain to work and I think we'll all be a lot happier.
