       Nice. Now link the Emergency Stop button to the Surprise button so that Free Fall becomes even more excting.   

       Welcome to the halfbakery!

       I like the sudden drop. This could be accentuated by piped-in screams and CO2 smoke.

       A moving floor on the elevator would be nice.

       Sounds like an interesting way to brighten up the day. I've always thought those "elevator" thrill rides were kind of unimaginative, but in the real world they would be cool.

       Yes, this would certainly de-linearise your day. Glad to make your aquaintance [sukiyaki].
