Imagine the stress load on that cable at the base and the velocity at the space end. Pretty mind boggling stuff. Plus how long would the elevator ride take? Average Joe can't tolerate too many G's for any extended period of time.

There's no space elevator exclusion in my life insurance policy, I'd ride it.
