I’d love to see more “the best lifts in” videos Also keep up the good work

Awesome! I know a friend of Sheffield, so go up there sometimes. Thanks for uploading these, really appreciate it.

Ikea just loves to contract Kone to install those massive 5000KG MX20+. There was a recent(not really) install at the Ikea at Batu Kawan in Malaysia.

All these lifts are awesome !

Great I live in Sheffield so ride most of these quite frequently. The lifts in the first minute or so of the video break down weekly 😂

Nice video Ben!

Spotted the leg dangle on instagram. Had to come see the video right after

At 14:54 you can see sheffields iconic "I love you" bridge

Didn’t know that there are nice lifts in Sheffield. Plus that Ikea store is massive.

Glad to hear Ryegi’s first paternoster was this epic tall one!

It is weird that there are not many paternosters in the UK, yet the UK has the worlds tallest paternoster.

They were both KONE mods in M&S they must be about to mod the other one.

every IKEA has got amazing and BIG elevators ... especially love the 5 ton EcoDiscs shown here!

Some really large MRL lifts that have a high wight capacity have a reduced speed mode for when they are above a certain weight so they might for example only travel at 0.5MPS when fully loaded.

Haha those paternoster lifts are the same ones as in the bbc show this is going to hurt

Do you know what the MX18 version with the NMX style brakes are called? I saw one in a picture and wondered if it was new

Those thames valley destination dispach looks exactly like the destination dispatch interface used by MacPuarsa over at my old workplace. (known as LiftXpress) and their destination dispatch logic were shit!

pretty sure there’s a diagonal chassis kone in manchester boots because one opens on the right to serve the ground floor and also has two white 140 indicators

16:57 That's my old collage how did you manage to get past the front door and not get spotted?

Can you safety brake the fast ones

10:09 beno the key is there is bc of this: If you shop IKEA you always start on the first floor and why the key is there bc you can't go down to skip the second floor

​@@LiftSurferRYEGIYeah i understand but an IKEA worker told me it.

ikea has a one way shopping system. up on one elevator then down on another elevator. lift at 15:34 has interesting floor names. maybe the lifts in that Chinese area crap?

*BANGON NA, BAYAN!!!!*

The massive Kone MX20 at 10:38 reminds me of a favourite scene from a Sixties classic serial, maybe The Avengers or Time Tunnel where the whole living room in the baddies' home is a lift. If only I could remember rightly. As for China town 19:07... They haven't learnt the "soft power" of subtlely yet, have they, the Chinese state? I was trying to excuse the arrogance of putting mandarin text first above the native english by thinking that they read right to left and so on. But we both read top to bottom, so this is the presumably perfectly normal to them: there's lots of Chinese people here, we paid for it, we go first. Not just we Brits showing a bit of arrogance then, good. I wonder if it's the same situation in the Chinese funded tower blocks of the East London University just north of London City airport in the docklands. Apparently they kicked up a storm in a teacup when told that the height restrictions due to the proximity of the flight path were non-negotiable. Something about boys and pride in the size of your tool, no doubt.

Paternosters are awesome, we have one at UoE Colchester in the library, it's been completely rebuilt, same traffic light system, unfortunately I can't ride it anymore, two fcked knees, I wouldn't risk it lol

@Love Birds It wouldn't fall under copyright. Possibly could come under design rights, but it is too small scale for this, plus there is enough difference between it and Otis for it to be different. It has a very slightly different font. And the outer casing looks different. Also, ThyssenKrupp have a blue background indicator with a white segment display which also looks pretty similar.

Ben, when you were surfing the glass lift, were you afraid that someone outside will spot you?

@benolifts

Жыл бұрын

This very rarely happens. At the park hill flats I was very visible, and I was seen by the residents, but luckily they found it funny. With glass lifts with non glass doors, I have never been seen. People are not observant. As for shaftless lifts in Spain, I have been seen twice by people on holiday who just waved at me. But overall I get seen far less than you might think. The biggest risk of getting caught lift surfing is getting off the lift.

It's on top of a blast furnace, so it naturally a long way up. The lifts from the bottom of the furnace to Bolt Tower itself was a rather fast generic lift, the one in Bolt Tower was another Výťahy Ostrava. Výťahy Ostrava is everywhere in Ostrava!

@@Finnstrains To be honest, I don't go in abandoned buildings that often. I find that the usual trashed abandoned building not very interesting. I only take interest in abandoned buildings if it is still mint, and does not look like it is abandoned or if the electricity is still on. Unless the abandoned building has something of significant interest (such as rare equipment still in tact) or has a lift to film, then it isn't worth going in or filming. There are some KZreadrs who's channel is nothing but trashed buildings, and they travel long distances across the country just to see very small scale crappy buildings. And they call this urbex, it is laughable. As for asbestos, it has to be being disturbed to be dangerous. Also, if there is wind blowing though the building it will blow it away. I have been in a couple of enclosed buildings where people have trashed them to the extent where the plaster board (usually 10% asbestos) was all over the floor, and walking through the building kicks up the dust. I left that building quickly and I dont plan to go in those sorts of buildings as it is dangerous and they are trashed beyond interest.

HYDROWARE is better than KONE in my opinion
