News Atlanta elevator porn a hit on YouTube
Posted by Andisheh Nouraee on Mon, Jun 2, 2008 at 4:50 PM
YouTube user musicfreakcc has racked up hundreds of thousands of page views with short videos of elevator rides he's taken in Atlanta.
To the untrained eye, not much appears to happen in the videos.
He enters, rides, then exits. Occasionally, he comments about the elevator's lights or buttons. You don't even see the person recording the images. All you see is elevator.
To elevator buffs, however, musicfreakcc's videos are an apparent treasure trove of lift-centric fun
For example, the two-minute-long video "Schindler Traction Elevator at Atlantic Station in Atlanta" has been viewed 13,177 times and has elicited comments like:
"I could tell this was a Schindler because of the look of the buttons"
"Hydraulic elevators are ok but WAY to slow and can be loud sometime"
And
"how come on schindlers like this has the same bell for the floor indecator as the dirrection indecator when othere companys use differnt for dirrection and floor?"
Watch and wonder:
