  • Filmed on August 12, 2017: Here we are coming to the FAMOUS tourist attraction in Canada! The tallest building in Toronto!!!! :D After 10-12 years of watching videos of these beauties, I have finally got a GREAT chance to experience this in real life!!! :D These are the main elevators here at the CN Tower in Toronto. The construction was started in 1973, completed in 1976. And also, I even got to operate one of the elevators on the trip going down. A HUGE THANKS to the awesome elevator attendant member for allowing me to push the buttons!!! :D In addition, sorry about my slightly crappy movement of my camera movement during the up trip, but still a great take all together. Lastly, the Skypod elevator will be uploaded later. With that said, enjoy the video!!! :D Installed in 1976, modernized in the 1990’s-2000's.

    This is very cool. That is neat how you can see the shaft below. I like the view over the city and the lake.

    The most recent time I was in the CN Tower was back on April 29, 1997 after spending ten days in Florida...I missed 'Entertainment Tonight' during that time!

      You can do some research on elevators, meet an elevator tech who are REAL experts, and also you can try to contact Andrew Reams the Legendary elevator enthusiast! :D

    Hey jim! No wonder whether these elevators were Otis series 3/Elevonic 411M. No wonder you made friends with the elevator operator , who talks about the CN Tower. How strange!!

      I don't refer to this speed as 1800fpm. The speed is 1200fpm.

    What they used to be (touche sensitive I believe) ?
    *you are saying in the description that it was modernized in 1900-2000's. wow ! 100 years of modernization ! LOL, they started to modernize the elevator before some think "oh ! I should build a tower right here" ! LOL*

    • @JimLiElevators
      @JimLiElevators  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think they had either Lexan or Touch. IDK.

    • @JimLiElevators
      @JimLiElevators  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      And also, I just change the description! I meant to say 1990s instead of 1900s.

    You know there IS such thing as a high-speed hydraulic elevator?

    • @JimLiElevators
      @JimLiElevators  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      No there isn’t, all I know that there’s a HIGHdraulic meaning it’s a High-hydraulic elevator traveling at least 5 to 7 floors.

    • @OPG2711
      @OPG2711 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      A high-speed hydraulic elevator travels at 200 FPM. Example: 6200 LBJ, which I filmed.

    • @OPG2711
      @OPG2711 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      @JimLiElevators But yes, a HIGHDraulic elevator has more than 5 landings.
