Strategy To Survive Elevator Fall

You and another person are in an elevator which is about to fall three floors

How do you brace yourself?

Do you stand with knees flexed to absorb the impact and sacrifice your ankles and legs?

Do you lay flat to distribute the kinetic energy on the largest possible area?

Do you lay on the other person to use their body as a crumple zone?

I want to Be Prepared.
