I think Mythbusters did it on their ultimate fails episode along with the plane being able to take off on a conveyor belt.

even if you did manage to jump at just the right time your body would still be moving at the same speed as the lift.. around 80mph therefore you would hit the bottom of the lift and die

Chuck Norris doesn't use lifts, he just pushes the building up or down into the earth and simply walks into the storey he wants from ground level

If you're falling at 50mph in the lift, and jump up at the last moment, you're still going to hit the ground at 49mph, and still die.
