The dog lead / child reins issue I feel is more dangerous than lift surfing because people are oblivious to the risk and don't think to prevent the risk, due to their lack of awareness. Meanwhile with lift surfing, as for myself and the people I know, we all understand the hazards of lift surfing and make sure we are aware of our surroundings and keep safe. But if you look as some of the things that newspapers have written about me and my friends, they make it sound like we are crazy daredevils.

@@benolifts Yes that's scary. I'm sure lots of dogs have died from this that there's no video of. There was one video where someone put a heavy load in an elevator and the elevator fell (or maybe the brakes just failed) a split second after the person got out. And I've seen some of those gory elevator videos (and an escalator video) from China. But I enjoy your lift surfing videos, too.

I’ve seen a lift near where I live in Australia where you can practically force the landing doors open without a key. What’s confusing is the lifts have a Schindler plaque inside the cab with the capacity and everything, yet in the shaft they have a white box that looks like a router with the Otis logo on it. At least it does engage the safety circuit when you force the doors open.

@jfwfreo Жыл бұрын
My guess is that it was either an Otis lift originally or was upgraded by Otis at some point. But then subsequent to that, Schindler did further upgrade work and/or took over the maintenance contract which is why their logo is in there.

@@jfwfreo hm, it’s a very cheap lift. It has a panachrome beam sensor module. It was installed in 2019 and last serviced in 2021 but I honestly can’t tell who owned the lift or took over since when they were first installed it had both the Otis box and the Schindler plaque. I’m getting the Otis box is an IoT router.

My Aunt was in an elevator crash, in Toronto, about 20 years ago in a Horn Elevator elevator that was not updated, and was epic to ride!~ The elevator accelerated oddly after a few floors, and kept accelerating until it reached the top, and did actually crash through the barrier at the top of the shaft, slightly, but stayed in place there, at the top of the shaft. A very good group of firemen helped my aunt out very carefully as there was quite a large drop underneath, and a slim opening to come out from. They were quite excellent to ride, and a few years later I moved into a building that still had them downtown in a very rare configuration where there's a button and lights over a stairwell, and the 2 elevators were operated separately, back - to - back - so if one was low and one high, you push the button around the stairwell, with the lights over the stairwell as if an elevator is coming there, and run around the back to catch it.

On the topic of thin/narrow objects like leads getting trapped in lift doors: The lifts in the building where I live are Dover traction lifts, and I've tried breaking safety on them by pulling open the inner doors while the lift is moving. On one of the lifts, the inner doors can be forced open 4-5 centimeters and still the safety circuit doesn't disconnect and the lift keeps moving, which I find quite dangerous. On the other lift, for some reason the logic tells the door motor to continue "pushing" the doors closed while the lift is moving (you can hear the door motor running while the doors are fully closed and the lift is moving), which seems dangerous to me because it makes it nearly impossible to force the inner doors open to break safety should something like a dog lead be caught between the doors. In almost all of the dog lead clips you showed, it looks like what keeps the dog from getting crushed is the inner doors being forced open by the dog or a human, which breaks safety and stops the lift, and on the lift in my building, this is physically impossible because you're fighting against the door motor. Food for thought.

My work is to deliver mail, sometimes its to the "city house" or the city/town hall. Alot of elevator in there are old with no sliding doors of any kind. Only a regular swing door you have to manually pull/push (no door inside elevator). Sometimes the elevator is stuck because the person inside never realizes that they have to stay clear of the moving walls so the elevator can move. Plenty of warning signs but no brain cells.😅

I've been in one situation a couple weeks ago where the elevators that I were in got modernized three months before I filmed them and the door operators were retrofitted in, because of that, the door operators weren't strong enough to close the door all the way, somehow it still kept going despite not being closed all the way and once we got to the third floor it stopped like 7 inches below the floor, I pressed the door open button it continued leveling the rest of the way, so I don't understand how they got away with that but it is what it is, sorry for the long comment

I witnessed an elevator fault where it actually went down. We were descending from the 9th floor, when the elevator randomly stopped for something like a ¼ of a second, ligts went out then came back, then it started to go down but it definitely accelerated way faster than normal, brakes engaged and we were stuck :D It went down about half a floor, firemen "rescued" us (basically just opened the doors and lifted the elevator back to the floor). Fun experience! That day we were experiencing loads of brief brown-outs due to construction nearby. Maybe power got briefly disconnected during the descent, and... It did something to the elevator.

5:50 The MX-11 2001 Kone EcoDisk in the Victorian State Library in Melbourne Australia has a capacity of 13 people and a weight capacity of exactly 1000KG and it’s very frequently overloaded as it’s a very busy lift! Often it sounds the overload alarm if a twelfth person enters the lift because of one or two passengers being heavier than 80KG. Pretty much it would only take 13 passengers if a large majority of them were not very heavy like if they were mostly kids for example! :)

Modern lifts have a governor cable tension switch that disables the lift is the governor cable is not tensioned correctly. Although I have found lifts with this bypassed and the governor cable not tensioned.

Some of the lifts at Westfield Stratford are a bit weird if you try and safety break them even if is a relatively good gap in the door it won’t emergency break until it’s properly gapped mean if something was to get caught it’s quite likely the l lift will still connect safety typical gEN2’s

I didn't know the electric lift came in in 1889 😮 Interesting!
@benolifts
@benolifts Жыл бұрын
Electricity started in around the late 1870s to 1890s. Not sure if an exact date can be given as it was a gradual rollout starting in the large cities first. Also voltages were all over the place. In Chatham it was 250 volts, which can be seen on the historic equipment in the Dockyard. I estimate that the first electric lifts were around 1889. Before that water powered lifts were used using an upside down hydraulic ram with a balancing weight, connected to the cables, powered from a large pressured water tank in a water tower above the building. The lift was driven by pull the rope mechanism, with no electricity required. Water powered goods lifts, with electric controls were still built for many decades after electricity came, but I don't think any have survived. As for the electric traction lift, loads of these were installed in the years running up to the turn of the centaury (1900) as a posh luxury thing for rich people to celebrate what seemed like the new futurist era of the 1900s (very similar to what happened in the millennium with loads of futuristic designs being produced).

You honestly don't like to view the big picture and I don't know why. About the Child Buggy thing, the idea still sounds horrible. First of all, do you expect all Average Joe's to have PhD's in Mechanical Systems or the like? Let's get that clear first. Don't just call everyone dumb, when was it a requirement for everyone to know the science of how every single aspect of what they use and do in a daily life basis. Secondary the idea of still using a child buggy for keeping the doors open still sounds like a bad idea. Talk to a Lift engineer, ask if this sounds "normal" enough to him. He would probably cringe at it still. This isn't just "OH NO, AKSHUALLY THE LIFT HAS 10000 safety modules!! The doors will never close and nobody is harmed", this is about a bit of common thinking too from people. Consider all viewpoints please. You are only commenting because you know the technicals of it, not everyone deserves to be called a "idiot" or "dumb people" for this.
