ThyssenKrupp High Rise Elevators at Frost Bank Tower.

[gwhendri]

going to have fun stealth bombing this

[cubsrule2040]

@CaptainElevator42189 I wonder if the Freedom Tower in NYC will break the record cuz I heard it will use ThyssenKrupp elevators. Do you think the elevators you recorded here are TWIN models?

[CaptainElevator42189]

I bet the Freedom Tower will break the records, since they are super tall, super fast elevators with double deck cabs. But I bet no one can't get on there, since it will obviously be a secured building.

[cubsrule2040]

Wasn't this the previous Dover Buzz record?

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, I held the Dover buzz record for a few months, and then MusicFreakCC broke it with the Viceroy Hotel.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, that's correct.

[JonElevator]

Did you say "Here We Go" necause you were excited of how fast it was going to go?

[CaptainElevator42189]

Only on weekends and private floors, of which 33 isn't.

[parejopinto]

don't u need a key card?

[CaptainElevator42189]

It sure is.

[PinePowerLI]

That beep is so annoying!

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, it sure is a unique building, and you're welcome.

[myotismon767]

Thanks for posting this video. I always thought this building was really cool. It's great to see the elevators here.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Amazing, but I'm actually referring to the 1000 feet/minute speed.

[liftdude]

1000th video view tribute!

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, it sure is, at 1000 FPM.

[stefanocanaparo]

no its ´verry fast and nicccceee

[CaptainElevator42189]

I think it's better to have the elevators serve ALL floors, and with this building having 33 floors, they could use a 3x11 button panel.

[ElevatorMan2012]

Why doesn't the indicator just say something like EX? Unless that's because it serves all 33 floors?

[ElevatorMan2012]

Oh wait, my bad, it goes from 1-22, but why doesn't it say EX between 1 and 22?

[Baytrail]

On a Dover/ThyssenKrupp, it would say X. But I've seen even 5 floor express zones display Xs.

[CaptainElevator42189]

That's very interesting, but I still like it better for elevators to serve all floors with no express zones.

[ElevatorMan2012]

That's something buildings don't need. It's such a short distance that it shouldn't be considered as an Express Zone.

[CaptainElevator42189]

I know, but some elevators display all floors, even if they're express zone floors.

[ElevatorMan2012]

Yeah, like I saw one of musicfreakcc's videos was a Schindler traction at a hotel I think, and it had that annoying indicator that rings before the floor, and it rang 20 times, which must've gotten pretty annoying after a while to guests.

[CaptainElevator42189]

How interesting, but I did see that video, and it was a very nice elevator, even with the annoying bell.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, because ThyssenKrupp bought out Dover in 2000.

[travelboy36]

Yes. Very nice elevator!

[CaptainElevator42189]

I have to agree with you on that.

[travelboy36]

The floor indicator sounds like a Dover.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, this is a really nice building, but I still love the Capitol and UT Main Building Tower the very most.

[kevin361]

I see this building every morning on my way to work....one of Austins most beatutiful architectural structures...along with the capitol.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Thank you so much, since it is the tallest office building in Austin.

[elevatorsonly]

How many floors is it?

[CaptainElevator42189]

This building has 33 floors, along with a basement that's only accessed by the freight elevator. So that's more like 34 floors.

Congratulations!
