Never knew there were channels dedicated to elevators. Nice video.

[@user-py4nx9bu8m]

I would like to go to Chicago for my next trip. It will be so fun. I want my dad to take me to Chicago so I can see the wonderful view at the top of the tower. I want to go there so bad.

Nice variation on the screens now compared to the bird presentation before but last time I went to the tower it was just your normal floor indicator and things many years ago. Nice that they make the ride more entertaining now, even if it's not that long!

[@ElevatingEurope]

Before that it used to be this bird animation playing on the TV saying you would reach the skydeck in 1 minute.

[@domsama1619]

wow great video!

[@nemochicky4697]

I went up the Willis Tower one week ago. It. Was. Awesome!!!

[@michaelastorga2478]

Did the tour in 2016. I have a fear of heights but the veiw was amazing

[@ElevationStationProductions]

Those fixtures are very interesting!

[@spagboiisback5841]

Man I went to the elevator skydeck my ears are getting block and or clogged

[@shaneomacdaddy]

The same thing happens when your going up on an airplane ✈.

[@jessezhang8759]

I loved this elevator, it had modded to Otis compass

[@shaneomacdaddy]

It must feel sort of like your on an airplane ✈.

[@NingSamaElevatorManiac]

Very awesome elevators Jim-San! Remind me elevators in Tokyo Skytree (Japan).

[@dvferyance]

At 0:49 is the height of the US Bank building in Milwaukee the tallest building I have been up to.

[@alexanderdelosreyes3723]

They changed the video of the tv

[@shibememes]

I would have taken video of the elevator but they pack so so many people

[@JordanLoweElevaToursCanada]

This elevator has a really neat floor indicator, what company installed the elevators?

[@schindlerelevonic50floorcc52]

+JimLiElevator i know this one is Schindler! Elevator

[@artchocoloveelevators3643]

Skipped every 10 floors :)

[@matthewzaslavsky6341]

It's like that

[@matthewzaslavsky6341]

Because it's high speed lol

[@210MichiganRails]

They sadly modernized into otis something idk what it is. but the screens are in the walls now instead of a tv screen.

[@PAelevators]

I miss the birds.. I was there in 2009 when the birds where there in my opinion I think the new one is boring

[@shaneomacdaddy]

I believe that the cartoon birds 🐦 🐦 were there when it was the Sears Tower, but when Willis bought it in like 2009, then they changed it to the one ☝🏻 you see 👀 in this video 📹.

[@stephen8385]

Hai jim.. Should we buy the ticket or something to go there? And can i buy on the building? Or should i buy it online? I was planning to go there tommorow.., if u can tell me some info, it would be nice.. Thanks jim

[@bryceweaver753]

[@domsama1619]

I wonder what happened to the cartoon when musucfreakcc was there.

[@GreenNekoProductions]

Musicfreakcc filmed there at one point.

[@ElevatingSoCal1284]

Sorry, but in the description you said worlds tallest building. The worlds tallesr building is in Dubai and is called Burj Khalifa.

[@JimLiElevators]

+ElevatingSoCal Fixed.

[@kristincrodian6627]

+JimLiElevators What happens if you try to push the LL2, 99, or 103 buttons?

[@Venecii]

I think he meant, "North America's Tallest Building"

[@nemochicky4697]

ElevatingSoCal You're right. Willis Tower is the second tallest building in the United States.

[@ElevatingChicago]

I love your spelling :)

[@richardschultz3993]

I know that place

[@angelomichaelmatias1282]

Cool!

[@henymeinurhaeti9391]

Speed 9M/second and 540M/min

[@Joshsrailvideos]

I can't ride in that elevator because my ears will hurt really bad

[@vxaliedv3424]

Josh’s rail videos My ears don’t hurt they just pop. Its something wrong with your ears

[@SirensAndElevators]

Why didn't you tell me you were in Chicago? i could've taken the Hiawatha train down and meet up with you. I live only 2 hours away (driving) from Chicago

[@JimLiElevators]

+MKE Aviation And Elevators I don't post any trip info's for safety reasons to the family. Esp. I don't do meetup's during family vacations unless if it's a well-known friend like DieselDucy, etc. Sorry Alex, all requests will be closed for time limits and family stuff.

[@SirensAndElevators]

I understand. And I will be going to Texas this summer to get my last rides on some American MD-80's. Not sure where and when exactly yet but if it's Houston I'll let you know later

[@nazarnordin2899]

[@JimLiElevators]

ruclips.net/video/8EZZw4Q-Y3o/видео.htmlsi=S55FVyG9_rzMvRlY

[@alexanderdelosreyes3723]

[@shibememes]

The elevator lies Willis Tower is the second tallest in the Western Hemisphere

[@greenshell389]

Actually no the one world trade centers elevator is 1280 and willis towers is 1353 feet

[@elevatorfilmersg]

The actual speed is only 540m/min or 9 m/s. It was once the fastest elevator in the world. It was then superseded by Mitsubishi Elevators, who set a speed record of 600m/ min or 10 m/s at sunshine 60, tokyo

[@vxaliedv3424]

Elevator Filmer SG The 2 tallest building in chicago has a faster elevator than the Willis tower. It’s the fastest elevator in the USA

[@ElevatingChicago]

Thechickenvlogs - TCV it was, until 1 WTC, the building you are referring to is John Hancock Center, those elevators are faster than the ones at the Willis Tower

[@joshc4285]

[@greenshell389]

They are starting to get modded AGAIN by otis compasses

[@JimLiElevators]

[@ag6371]

THESE ARE SCHINDLERS

[@alexanderdelosreyes3723]

It goes 1353 ft per minute

[@alexanderdelosreyes3723]

It goes more than 24 ft per second

[@ScorpioBornIn69]

That makes it one mile in less than four minutes. That is a fast elevator.
