Heading down an elevator shaft without any equipment and nothing to break your fall could be considered reckless self-endangerment. Nobody gave Steve that memo.
He's been working with a team of exceptional people getting the systems back on-line, but there was a lot of debris that had to be cleared manually, and that meant climbing down there to clear the way so the actual elevator car could move again.
"I've reached the floor!" he calls up. "I'm going to get these doors open and see what the damage is like down here!"
He swings his shield at the crease in the elevator doors, wedging them open just enough for him to slip his fingers inside and pry them the rest of the way open. Nobody really knows how many people are alive or dead down here, and Steve means to help where he can. He steps into the cave without hesitation.
