fun fact: At the fastest, the power required to raise an 80 kg person is 14400 Watts. let say there are 10 people in the elevator. This would mean 144 Kilowatts just to lift the people alone. That's not considering the weight of the elevator itself too which easily adds another 180 Kilowatts too, and efficiency. The elevator can easily use 324 Kilowatts just to operate the elevator.

This thing travels almost 3550 FPM going up!!! This is how I found that: 18MPS x 60 = 1080MPM, then convert to feet to get 3543.307FPM Going down, it travels 1968.5 FPM. (10MPS x 60 = 600MPM then converting to feet)

For those who don't know why a kid cried on the background: So the elevator was going up at the speed of 18m/s (64.8km/h) which was almost faster than a car. Because of that, The air pressure was very high that our ears could hurt so their dad told them to take a sip of saliva after the elevator started slowing down so that their ears would get better!

It's not the fastest elevator in the world man. Chinese always say they are the best in the world all over any other country, but in fact, that's fu*kin lie dude.

Which is faster now? Lotte Tower I believe is at the same speed. CTF Guangzhou is 20m/sec but no video shows that yet. And I think they modded the center OB elevator in Shanghai Tower to also reach 20m/sec., so as far as I know, yes these actually are the fastest. Unless you count mining elevators and other lifts I suppose.
