Freshers week footage of new students testing out the rare and exciting Paternoster. This one is found in the Attenborough Tower of the University of Leicester, UK. But what happens if you forget to get off at the top!?

There are people with an elevator-phobia. Now, if you put them in these, do they freak out or are they cool because these things are actually open? I mean I WOULD freak out and I don´t have no phobia.

They really aren't that scary in person

I wonder how many Paternoster deaths per year there are..

In Ottawa an elevator had stopped in between floors and the doors had opened. A nine year old girl tried to crawl out when the elevator started up again. People just looked on as she was cut in half.

looks like the roof of the cell is tapered so it should push you out

設計がおかしい。

なぜ死亡事故が起きる事を想定できないんだ。
