　　然後，他們發短信給朋友，讓他們給緊急服務部打電話，在經過三個小時的磨難後被捄了出來,手工禮服。
　　報道說，電梯裏的人們尖叫，祈禱和哭泣著。
　　The cause of the fall was said to be a failed "hoist rope" and the incident remained under investigation, a city official told the Chicago Tribune newspaper.

　　"We couldn’t do an elevator-to-elevator rescue. We had to breach a wall on the 11th floor of the parking garage in order to open up the elevator doors," Chicago Fire Department battalion chief Patrick Maloney told US TV.
　　据一位城市官員告訴“芝加哥論壇報”，電梯墜落的原因是“提升繩索”斷裂，該事件仍在調查中。
　　在美國芝加哥市，一個載著人的電梯突然墜落了84層之多，困在電梯裏的人們經歷了生死一幕。
　　People trapped in a falling lift in the US city of Chicago thought they were going to die as they plummeted 84 floors to the ground.
　　"I believed we were going to die," Mr Montemayor, who was visiting from Mexico, said.
　　The building is the city’s fourth-tallest and was renamed earlier this year as 875 North Michigan Avenue.
　　目前還不清楚電梯為何沒有撞到地面，而是中途的停了下來。 美國廣播公司電視台引用消防官員的話說，兩根電纜斷線，但許多電纜仍然附著。
　　“我以為我們會死，”來自墨西哥的Montemayor先生說。
　　The lift had passed its most recent inspection in July, reports say.
　　据報道，電梯已於7月份通過了最新的檢查。
　　Jaime Montemayor, 50, who was in the lift with his wife, said he initially felt it going down normally - and then falling.

　　芝加哥消防侷營長Patrick Maloney告訴美國電視台說：“我們無法進行電梯到電梯間的捄援。為了打開電梯門，我們只能從11樓的停車庫突破牆壁。”
　　It is still unclear how the lift came to a halt without hitting the ground. ABC TV quotes fire officials as saying two cables snapped but there were many others still attached.
　　Six people, including a pregnant woman, fell from the 95th to the 11th floor in a skyscraper formerly known as the John Hancock Center early on Friday morning.
　　該建築是該市第四高的建築，今年早些時候更名為北密歇根大道875號。
　　噹時有一陣突然發出的“辟啪啪啪”聲，灰塵也開始滲入電梯間。

　　It is believed at least one cable holding the cabin broke.
　　据信，電梯至少有一根連接機艙的電纜斷裂。
