You mean buffer testing? We usually do this after the installation as part of the commissioning phase. Just testing the validity of the buffer incase the electrical system fails to slow the lift down. Test is done wirh an empty car to load the counter weight as much as possible. After this test they'll load the car with 125% capacity and test the cabin buffer. Test is only showing validity at the speed the lift is programmed to travel at. Doesnt simulate cut ropes or free fall.
It is a crash test. The car runs at normal speed with no slowdown until the car or counterweight hits the buffers. Standard testing.I have never actually watched one of these from inside the hoistway.

Thank you for the info. It's interesting to learn how they work

that counterweight has connect to elevator
IS THAT GOOD FOR THE ELEVATOR?!
Lol
Its a test
Counterweight balance a elevator car 🛗
Buffer test
How would you make that happen 🤔 all I can think of is raising the buffers from the normal height?
Scary
Why did that happen?
