- Take a ride from level B2 to floor 118 in the elevator of Shanghai Tower. This massive Chinese skyscraper, completed in September 2015, is a staggering 2,074 feet (632 meters) tall. As of 2016, it is the second tallest building in the world. Inside the tower is the fastest elevator in the world. The journey from level B2 to the observation deck on floor 118, a total of 120 floors, takes only 55 seconds at a speed of 18 meters a second, or 40 miles per hour.

fun fact: At the fastest, the power required to raise an 80 kg person is 14400 Watts. let say there are 10 people in the elevator. This would mean 144 Kilowatts just to lift the people alone. That's not considering the weight of the elevator itself too which easily adds another 180 Kilowatts too, and efficiency. The elevator can easily use 324 Kilowatts just to operate the elevator.
Very cool. Thank you for that, I enjoy learning new things.
Half true:
Elevators have counter weights.
At least its own weight
@@TheFightingmav i see the error. Thx for pointing that out
That so fast even make the kid on the background cry
Also makes your ears pop with how fast it is.
floor 118 thats high
18 meters per second is only 40 mph…crazy perspective on speed and how the mind perceived
It is faster than my home internet
Ha!
Good video!
Thank you!
This thing travels almost 3550 FPM going up!!! This is how I found that: 18MPS x 60 = 1080MPM, then convert to feet to get 3543.307FPM
Going down, it travels 1968.5 FPM. (10MPS x 60 = 600MPM then converting to feet)
I am bad at math so I appreciate this. Makes you realize how fast you are going.
Which brand this elevator?
Mitsubishi Electric-designed elevator
@@artzuel2616 it has been a while but i would say i felt some, but nothing too much
the picture of shanghai tower is not accutate because the one world trade center is like 550 meters but this tower is bad a**
Come on!!!! that has more than the owtc
Почему едет он, а больно моим ушам😅😅😅
это было так быстро
@@TheTravelMentor я лучше пешком по лестнице)
Fake on Taipei 101
Very fake
Wow, the speed of it :0 Its like a rocket
Yes. It was fast.
amazing elevator!
Yes it is!
taipei 101 is better
this is literally a copy of it but even worse
Even the characters in the display look cheap (bad quality of colors and texture for ex)
An American company designed the building, so maybe trying to cut costs.
It has 128 floors!
You are correct. I think when I posted this I meant where the elevator stopped on the 120th floor.
IM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RIDING THAT ELEVATORRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
You should.It's so fast.
but why didn't you press the floor button?
Ha, I would have if they let me!
@@TheTravelMentor ok
What the this will make me feel uncomfortable
The Shanghai tower has 122 floors
122
If it was even faster it would have made people fall to the ground, and that would be so hurt
It's not the fastest elevator in the world man.
Chinese always say they are the best in the world all over any other country, but in fact, that's fu*kin lie dude.
Well the Chinese didn’t decide it, Guinness World Records did.
Which is faster now? Lotte Tower I believe is at the same speed. CTF Guangzhou is 20m/sec but no video shows that yet. And I think they modded the center OB elevator in Shanghai Tower to also reach 20m/sec., so as far as I know, yes these actually are the fastest. Unless you count mining elevators and other lifts I suppose.
also, all the fastest elevators in the world (including this one), is made by Japanese companies (Mitsubishi, Hitachi etc.). soz for reply after 2 yrs
Stop being racist
