With elevators that are locked off, ive heard you sometimes have to be careful, as sometimes, literally every single floor is locked off from what ive heard, and some elevators will apparently lock out the door open button when on a restricted floor with the door closed, which combined with literally every single floor being locked off, could cause you to become trapped
@@official_meeleesDoor operators apply torque to hold doors closed at all times as a safety thing (after all, the air curtain created by the car moving is substantial enough to catch on the door seam and pull doors open if it wasn't there). If the car has a run/stop switch that the user can access, then you can cut the power to the door op long enough to open by hand, but the downside to that is that will simultaneously ring the alarm bells at every floor.
@@eliastaylor2817The recall floor in general has to be unlocked according to fire codes. The recall floor is the guy with the star. That's the floor that elevators will return to in the event of stage 1 fire mode activation or code blue activation. It's also, in fire codes, the floor with the most direct outside exit from the elevators. If, for whatever reason, stage 1 doesn't activate, you have to be able to get out of the shaft ASAP, preferably to that recall floor. Security teams can scoff at that however they like, human safety takes priority over not letting them see whatever office or lobby they want them locked out of.
“You’re not allowed there.” “Oh, OK.” Exactly how this kind of thing should go. Guy 1 wasn’t all pissy or rude or anything, and didn’t leave you stunned for a bit or with any questions, just stated that it wasn’t a public area in a reasonably polite way. You immediately complied, which is also the right way to handle it.
What surprises me the most is how many restricted access elevators your run into. Normally you have to really look for those. Of course you probably do that on purpose so never mind.
The elevators in a hotel has a thing that you need key for. Using the key on that will unlock the buttons, and clicking on a button will then lock all the buttons. I've experienced those elevators, they're really good at preventing robbers in hotels!!
He's been stuck in a couple in videos before, the first time he got stuck in one he was specifically filming for he did panic a little. He's gotten less afraid of being stuck since and is a lot more calm about it on the off occasion that it does happen, probably a combination of experience and more knowledge about the underlying safety systems. I don't remember the exact video but IIRC it was a Dover hydraulic, it served four floors in an office style building that just happened to be unlocked on a weekend. He ended up using the phone box and the tech on the other end directed him to use the E-Stop switch to cut power to the pump and drain valve and also remove the torque from the door operator. That allowed him to push the door open by hand and get out. I think it got stuck levelling, it undershot the floor by more than 1/2" and the controller thought it too far off to open the door.
The lifts/elevators here are ok but don't always match the floor, couple of inches out at times. Plus on riding it is fast but clunky on floor stops. Couple weeks ago when I pressed button 10 it stopped at floor 11 and I walked downstairs.
I live in a Manchester UK social high rise building, am on the 10th floor of a 16 floor block and have building works going on. They take the piss with holding the lifts/elevators , am glad we don't have TH-camrs going on ours!! Yet.. although I say that.. please do.. perhaps you will highlight just how bad and clunky these old lifts are here lol!! 😂😂
To be honest if the button on the call station lights up but then goes out it sometimes means it's off but if it doesn't light up at all then that means it's broken
Okay, the first one, right as the elevator doors open, there was someone lying down in the elevator. That was unexpected. Maybe the person was too tired that they fail asleep in the elevator, maybe the elevator got stuck, but you'll never know
not gonna lie, the first one made me laugh so hard
What was he doing?

The ground floor should work. There has to be a ground floor to exit the building.
you can just pull the doors open. They arent heavy and arent locked

Why? All the floors are locked or keycarded?
My fear of elevators has brought you a new sub! lol
I couldn't stop laughing at the first one.
Ikr
Bro that guy scared tf out of me LMAOO
😅😂😅im the one that broke the elevator😅😂😅
Tolle Aufzüge!
3:26 love that button
It’s always a bummer when elevators are locked off.
And when you get busted during the times when people forget to lock them off (I can relate 😔)
@@bigburgerboi2005 True
THE FIRST ONE LMAO

So weird that one💀
From lifts that are broken to lifts that have all their floors locked.
To getting busted
To even finding a homeless person inside
I cannot explain why, but i love seeing videos about failing elevators
mee too
I live relatively close to El Dorado Hills, California! I can't believe one of the fails ended up being near me. LOL
11:25 no, we’re not! 😂
The first one, why is there a man chilling in the elevator that made me laugh so hard😂😂😂
LOL WHAT WAS THE GUY DOING IN THE FIRST ONE
I don't want to know, haha
0:17 the man is yoga caught on camera 📷😆 [you make me laugh so hard]
Some of these are bloopers! Man this is funny

He said, "You know this place is closed upstairs?"

I feel like the last one dropped like a stone to the ground at one point
4:28, Where was the elevator that was buzzing and was stuck on the first floor?
1:10 I think that elevator got itself stuck.
1:59 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
ooooooooooo! This is going to be interesting!
0:18 After you exit the elevator lobby your emote will 😱😳🤣😔😭

Sometimes failed elevator videos can even be caused by the fire alarm going off while filming!
6:06 the business man can’t go there 😆
This was a great video compilation.

6:24 is there a full video of that elevator?
11:23 Where are you, and why does it sound like a video game?
9:50 I know 47 did not work while the doors were open but what if it worked when the doors closed
2:33 The bulls**t elevator button
2:52 The c**k light
7:26 R.I.P. 💀💀💀
What’s the elevator at 1:58
What does the stinging noise mean? Like there's a relay stuck?
Nudge mode - stuck relay, yes, but also means the door has been left open too long.

Who is that in the elevator?

To be honest if the button on the call station lights up but then goes out it sometimes means it's off but if it doesn't light up at all then that means it's broken

True. The common misconception would be that it was some homeless person sleeping in the elevator and the police must be called

Bro, the first one was like TF🤓🫵🏾👇🏾
At 9:25 you didn’t try all the floors
half of these arent failing, they keep trying to get into emergency elevators incase of a fire
Emergency elevators are often used as passenger elevators when not in fire service
Or one was that you weren't allowed in the elevator

Never use elevators in a house due to an earthquake or fire, hopefully they will not get trapped.
