Idk what oc was on about 30x27 > 43, so that elevator is more likely to kill you then lightning, it is 725 times lower than dying from cancer. Overall if change your diet to reduce systemic inflamation abit and start to ride this elevator you wouldve reduced your risk of death.

Cause yoi dont need all the cables holding them up and they have very good safety breaks because when they were furst invented the inventor stood underneath the elavator and cut a rope with an axe that was holding up the lift to prove how good the breaks were

    Do note: while it is technically safe to go over the top or around the bottom on these evelators it puts unnecessary wear and tear on the machine, leading it to break down much quicker.
    Also if a building has one of these elevators, most places have strict regulations that forces them to install a modern wheelchair accessible elevator for safety reasons.

      @@goldensacredwarrior Yes, Paternosters arent suitable for wheelchair users, but for example the Břevnov clinic has other elevators as it has somewhere around 10 floors (I cannot confirm, as I wasn't in that exact building). The New Town Hall should have an alternative elevator also.
      Just to confirm, I am not a resident of Prague, but because I live nearby and speak Czech as my mother language, I can confirm, that using administrative, especially medical buildings for tourism isn't exactly alright, unless you're not disrupting the operations of the building.

    PATERNOSTERS ARE NOT ELEVATORS. They are a unique type of rail system that operates differently than anything else. Sure, they’re outdated, but, much like funiculi, they have a specific purpose and are great for the specific function they serve.
    Also, they neither fold nor flip when they get to the bottom or top of the loop. It’s a vertical conveyer belt and they always stay upright; you could definitely stay in them while they go from up to down or vice versa, but it’s not recommended because (1) it’s inefficient for transport and (2) there are dangers (both mechanical and during emergencies) of you being at those inflection points
