The first documented evidence of the elevator is found in the works of Vitruvius, the Roman architect. He reported that Archimedesbuilt the first one in about 236.From about the middle of the 19th century, power elevators, often steam-operated, were used for conveying materials in factories, mines, and warehouses. In 1853, American inventor Elisha Otis demonstrated a freight elevator equipped with a safety device to prevent falling in case a supporting cable should break. Otis established a company for manufacturing elevators and patented (1861) a steam elevator. In 1846, Sir William Armstrong introduced the hydraulic crane, and in the early years 1870s, hydraulic machines began to replace the steam-powered elevator.Electric elevators came into to use toward the end of the 19th century.

In 1853, American inventor Elisha Otis demonstrated a freight elevator equipped with a safety device to prevent falling in case a supporting cable should break. This increased public confidence in such devices. Otis established a company for manufacturing elevators and patented (1861) a steam elevator. In 1846, Sir William Armstrong introduced the hydraulic crane, and in the early 1870s, hydraulic machines began to replace the steam-powered elevator. The hydraulic elevator is supported by a heavy piston, moving in a cylinder, and operated by the water (or oil) pressure produced by pumps. Electric elevators came into to use toward the end of the 19th century. The first one was built by the German inventor Werner von Siemens in 1880. (I copied and pasted.

Would you die if you went in an elevator and it stopped a 100 mph?
if an elevator moving at 100 mph came to a sudden stop, it would be the same as a car moving at 100 mph coming to a sudden stop, such as when hitting a brick wall. Only in the elevator, there would be no seat belt, air bag, etc. to protect you. So it would be very likely that you would die.
