      Yeh, i hate how safe they are because they had to impliment so many safety features in lifts before people used them. Cause yoi dont need all the cables holding them up and they have very good safety breaks because when they were furst invented the inventor stood underneath the elavator and cut a rope with an axe that was holding up the lift to prove how good the breaks were

    Do note: while it is technically safe to go over the top or around the bottom on these evelators it puts unnecessary wear and tear on the machine, leading it to break down much quicker.
    Also if a building has one of these elevators, most places have strict regulations that forces them to install a modern wheelchair accessible elevator for safety reasons.

    PATERNOSTERS ARE NOT ELEVATORS. They are a unique type of rail system that operates differently than anything else. Sure, they’re outdated, but, much like funiculi, they have a specific purpose and are great for the specific function they serve.
    Also, they neither fold nor flip when they get to the bottom or top of the loop. It’s a vertical conveyer belt and they always stay upright; you could definitely stay in them while they go from up to down or vice versa, but it’s not recommended because (1) it’s inefficient for transport and (2) there are dangers (both mechanical and during emergencies) of you being at those inflection points

      The only is meaningful. If you'd rather use the stairs, you are twice as likely to die. Not saying that stairs are dangerous, just saying that that's how statistics works.
      Math to prove: 1600 people die from stairs annually, 27 die from elevators annually
      27 x 30 = 810

    i was curious to see what exactly "30x more dangerous" entails so i did some googling to check.
    there's about 10,000 elevators injuries per year in the us, so if we take that as our baseline, these elevators would cause about 300,000 injuries if these were to replace all traditional elevators. probably a lot, but considering these are such niche elevators, they probably see little if no accidents due to how rare they are. seems like one of those things where you kinda know what you're getting into, but it's fun and interesting enough that the risk is sometimes worth the enjoyment.

It’s like how your “most likely” to get into an accident when you’re 10 minutes from home, because you’re driving there the most often. Nothing inherently makes that distance from your house more dangerous than any other road, you’re just in the area more commonly. If I take the stairs 10 times in a day and an elevator once than I have 10 chances of getting hurt on the stairs and only one in an elevator
