- Going up and down in the OTIS high-rise scenic elevators @ CN Tower in Toronto, Canada.
We travelled up to the main deck which is 346 meters above ground - or equal to 114 building floors!
Construction of the tower began in 1973 and it was completed in 1976
To watch the low-rise scenic hydraulic elevators, please watch hissen12's video of those at • Nice!!! Delta Scenic H...

Memories for me here, I've always had a massive fascination for this tower since completion, knowing it held the record for tallest freestanding structure in the world until Dubais monster took it in in 2007 , I was so happy going up it in 98 when it still held the title was a thrill to . Then having dinner in the planet Hollywood restaurant nextdoor, is it still there, there was no glass floor in the elevator back in 98 if I'm remember right. Still a mega tower even though it has slipped down in the rankings. Then going up burj in 2015 I realised how far buildings have progressed in time .
You guys got balls.thats frigging crazy that high
Met a girl when she worked at the tower,back in the mid 80's.She loved my English accent and l loved her Canadian one. Both together, still.
right in the feels
Wow, are you guys still together?
@Ardensphere Productions dude stfu lmao
@@sarmadrafi8931 u right
Still a better love story then Twilight
Cool elevator with the glass floor panel and the glass walls. I like how the lifts are integrated into the architecture of the tower. Looks very futuristic.
+dykodesigns2yt It was built in the 1970s
I went in 2017. The day of the solar eclipse. It was cool to view Toronto from this height as it gradually blackened with the sun
The view in the city of Toronto is impressive ,like the towel and the excellent weather conditions
When I was just 12 years old, my Grandparents took us to Montreal for the Olympics with a stop at the CN tower in Toronto along the way. This was when it was brand spanking new in June of 1976.
We took the extra trip to the higher outdoor observatory and I remember looking down on the main section with my Grandfather and he was laughing because they were already doing roof repairs on a brand new structure. This was about the same time he had the roof replaced on his (now mine) business and the roofers were coming back all of the time to fix their shoddy work, so I think it was more of a sympathetic laugh rather than dissing this amazing tower. Perhaps they were just doing some final touches on it, so I really don't know. I'd love to go back one day.
Amazing how Elevators,Lifts, Have developed over the years,I had 47 good years in the UK Lift trade, Learnt on old contactor controllers.Ended my career as a Lift inspector, It’s still the safest form of passenger transport.
I wonder how fast this elevator is in fpm?
@@anthonyboarman3833 as fast as the cab was ascending, likely over 1,000 FPM. High speed gear-less traction machine.
I can't believe that no one in that elevator reacted to the decent pressure and drop speed !
We were there yesterday!! Been here so many times and still enjoy the views!! The glass floor inside still gives me the creeps.
I went to Toronto three times. Once to see the doctor and twice for surgery. I should have went up the CN Tower but I was afraid to. So I went up the Calgary Tower instead. It wasn't as high up and it isn't even the tallest building in Calgary anymore. But I saw the Rocky Mountains out the western windows. Maybe they will make the Calgary Tower taller sometime in the future and then I will go up it again! :D
Sure there are taller ones, but CN with alway be in my heart. Well done Canada.from an American brother from another mother
When I was a kid I thought I was up in this place first time it was built Watch Planes laying on Airport and observation deck was open being outside it was windy I watched it being built when I was in Canada with my dad that was the highest place I ever been
I've last been on this elevator back on April 29, 1997.
One of the fastest elevator that I even seen.
Been riding that since I was a young kid. Used to be afraid the elevator might not “stop” and we would shoot through the ceiling and become airborne.
XD
No way that will happen,the top shaft is on the middle of the top roof
I've been up there once. Next time take the stairs. Good exercise. ;)
Im watching the elevator while listening to "Lucio Dalla". Its all so totally romantic.
I've been up there a couple of times. The last was about 15 years ago.
***** Nice! Do you remember what sort of fixtures they had back then?
Heritage Elevators They had OTIS series 2 with the ELD display the last time I was there.
***** ooh..that would be scary.
Im afraid of heights so i would *NEVER* go on top of it..
+_Hey_its_Wolf_ its not high u might think its high
Jason Guminny and will have the toys for free and she is not the lady who typically will. Aiden she was a good lady for r ever the sending
I Rode this elevator since 2018

@Ashton Korbin it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my ass :D
@Leroy Ian happy to help :D
I played hooky from school a couple of times and spent most of the day atop the CN Tower. Just loved being up there. My birthplace and hometown. 🇨🇦
I went on this a few days ago
I loved it!!!!!
Wow. Those are some epic elevators!
Nice lift
Is it weird that I don't have a problem standing on the glass floors, but I am petrified of doing the edge walk?! XD
Observation level 113-114th floors
360 restaurant 115th floor
Sky pod 147th floor
Tip of the antenna mast equivalent of 181 floors
Otis elevators,number one in the wrold.
So COOL, Thanks for the Upload.
Been to TORONTO a few times but still have yet to get to the CN Tower.
Want to Finally GO one day.
Always check the weather first. On a clean day, you can see the Niagara Falls from the Observation deck.

@@arahman56 true. One time I went on the CN Tower, I thought I saw Buffalo. But then I realized that it was Niagara Falls. Turns out you can't see Buffalo from Toronto. But hey at least you can see Hamilton 😂😂😂
That music that plays in the background at 3:51 is Grape I Love You (Instrumental) by Jincheng Zhang
Then, they keep going! Blasting out of the roof! The elevator then turns into a flying, jet propelled, elevator. They knew they had one, they were the only ones, the, last ones.. They were then asked by the elevator's inventor over a muffled intercom, to come and stay in the elevator factory, forever.. The End. :)
if you didn't know, i was referencing charlie and the chocolate factory.
Roald Dahl would have a field day with this comment! LOL
I'ma bout' to put my willy wonker in your chocolate factory.
It was a bit long....
K chocolate factory gotcha...
"Up and Out"
It's elevator tour Time!
Wow, that is one fast elevator... To bad there's no machine room tour - would've been epic, (but I understand, not all circumstances allow for it happening), but over all, cool!
That's an elevator I wouldn't mind getting stuck in ;)
I've been in it.
I live in Canada.
And stuck in it.
@@slender_0434 nooo wayyy what the f did you do???
I didn’t really get stuck in it, it just stopped for 30 secs and was kinda scary
Wonderful memory. 😍😍😍
Im Jahr 2000 dort gewesen es war wunderschön.
Very Nice.....ok💙
GRACIAS POR LAS IMAGENES AMIGO,, SALUDOS DESDE SANTIAGO, CHILE...
That’s a good view 😊
Awesome elevator!
The Gardiner,and QEW jammed up as usual. All the way to Hamilton
What do you expect, it's the Greater Toronto Area. But the 401 is worse, from Scarborough to Etobicoke.
Awesome CN Tower video bro
I was a employee of a contractor who did all the restaurant lighting back in 2006 ,we did 3 weeks on night shift ,and he was asked to quote the new led lighting system inside the elevator shafts ,he asked me and four other guys if we would consider working on the roof of the elevator while an Otis employee would ride inside the lift on crawl speed , there are 2 lifts in each shaft so even while you are harrnesst off when you are in the roof of the elevator you still have a open shaft right by your side ,I said no thanks
I love the elevator❤❤❤❤
3 times Canadien National tried having Montreal home their tower in their HQ town..so glad each time the city sensibly told them to bugger off!
I am planning to go to Toronto this September. I might not be going to this tower though, because this glass elevator looks too scary.
This is awesome
Waoo what a view 🤩
Very nice video plus i did went up CN tower 2 times
That is cool
No way you'd get me to go up in a glass elevator, nope. If there isn't a regular elevator, I'm definitely not going up there lol.
I went up there it is super scary but also super cool
i love ittt😊💖👑
Cool tower
Wow… amazing…
I was on there last Wednesday it rocked I live about 1 hour from there it's scary though
Very fast elevator!!!
Toto je super!
When safer and even more mind blowing elevators of all kinds are made, the US company Otis will build them!
I went there a few (like 2014) years ago, it was awesome, to bad i did not get footage of the elevators, and IDK if i will because of stuff
Very good
CN tower makes the Calgary tower look like a little toothpick 😀😀
Nice
Well I will love to try it
Impressive
oh~~very good..!!
Been here!
This is really cool i love the view there
Amazing
Omg 553.6 Meters! It's even higher than New York's World Trade Center One!
Marc Bartholemy it is the tallest free standing structure in the Western Hemisphere and was the tallest in the world for a whooping 32 years!
AMAZING!!!
Oh my god... Is startled me heart attack this! I'll never go there and ride this in my life, no way go this place!!! 😱😵
It was terrible for me i thought I was going to die
I’m watching this because I’m going to the CN tower on August 1st :D
I’ve had an mini heart attack when I first went up.
I had a nightmare when i went up
Didnt know that the CN Tower is just a bit taller than the Stratophere in Las Vegas
Well its 200 meters taller. Which is around 650 to 670ish feet. So its not a small difference either.

I live in Toronto and I've been there once

Found the trip to the observation level "uplifting", but on the way to the ground floor was a "downer".
Whoa!
I love Toronto Tower
so much
Way scary for me.
Nice vid
I've been up it twice! a lot of fun
OMG! 114 floors!
I live 70 km west of the tower, can even see it from my city but have yet to venture up.
The CN Tower is the tallest structure in the whole continent of America
Marc Bartholemy u could just say Western Hemisphere

Ria Castro he's going to the sky!
I have a fear of heights and elevators that is not for me. 😂
*imagine free falling in this elevator from the top.*
AAAAWWWWWEEEEEESSSSSOOOMMMMMEEEEEEE!

OTIS is the king anyway
I live here!
Is it just me or does any else get scared about a plane hitting it😂
