Скачать или смотреть [EL] Stuck In The Elevator! Schindler Modded 1989 Hydraulic Elevator Asheville Mall (Asheville, NC)

(4/14/2022)
As much as I wanted to schedule this video later, this had to be shared.

So if you guys remember last August, I filmed most of the elevators at Asheville Mall, except for this one which was broken down. I saw Escandelev's recent video of this working again and had plans to see it myself. Even back then I thought this was a piece of shit, and BOY WAS I RIGHT?!?!

It all started simple, this thing ran like shit during the ride, but it all went wrong when I rode this off camera to get pictures for my Instagram Account, which I always do after filming the video. As soon as I pressed 2, the doors started going crazy and jammed up, constantly opening and closing randomly. The cab refused to move, which means I was fucked. After 10 minutes of being trapped and calling for help, someone was nice to provide me with the Security Phone Number and I was eventually freed.

This is definitely ending up on the Worst Elevators of 2022 List for this year. Not only is it the worst elevator of this mall, it makes the list of the Worst Elevators of NC, up there with the 2 DeInnovated Dovers at the JCPenney of Four Seasons Town Centre. I don't know what's worse, seeing the elevators constantly break down like those two, or being in the elevator when it breaks down. I could say they need to replace the door operators, but I'd say tear down this whole damn elevator. It's practically useless anyways. Why they felt they need to have Schindler Mod this and not just get a new cab with new machinery and stuff doesn't make sense. No one even uses this anymore anyway, so they just need to demolish this damn thing already.

I'm this close to adding HXPress to the worst modern mods up there with TKE Modfusion. Also, whoever inspected this and thought this ran fine needs to be fired, in fact most inspectors in certain areas do to! I mean how else do we end up with dumpster fires like this and the 4 Seasons Town Centre JCPenney Elevators?!
