[1993gandy]

what they should do on april 1st is when the door closes switch the lights off and a voice should come on saying next stop hell

Have fun going down!!

[dukenthaylor]

a lift goes from bottom of WTB in Taipei,

and reaches the top (101st flr) in 37 secs.

assuming that constant rate of speed,

and assuming it's brakes were made by toyota,

how quickly would it reach the moon?*

*DO MATH! SHOW WORK! XD

@dukenthaylor If the surface of the moon is about 375 Mm from the surface of the Earth and the ascending elevator goes about 17 m/s, you shall get... about 255 Earth days.

Annoyingly enough Burj Khalifs elevators are even faster.

I wish every elevator was like that I love that Display!

Creepy elevator music.

[g4tech]

[Alu10000]

Its maximum speed is 1010 meters per minute, not meters per second.
