Thirteenth Floor

Well I'm now relocated to Dubai - more or less - in the fantastic suburb of Greens in Apartment 1304. Not being a superstitious type at all - living on the thirteenth floor and all... Couldn't help noticing this in the lift though:

I can't help but to imagine some giant cartoon spring attached to the bottom of the lift - that Wyle E. Coyote might buy from Acme.

I can't recall ever having seen a notice like this before... I'm wondering if there is a higher incidence of free-falling lifts in the UAE. Should I be worried?
