LIFT FILMING PLANS FOR 12/17

Coronavirus Pandemic Standards

With the exception of the fifth anniversary lift filming plans, the standard for lift filming is as follows:

  • U.S. daily coronavirus cases must not exceed 55,000 for the 4 consecutive days before the planned in-person lift filming day & none of the four up to the planned lift filming day can have a 6% increase or more in daily cases from the day before.
  • New Jersey daily coronavirus cases must not exceed 1,000 cases for the 4 consecutive days before the planned in-person lift filming day & none of the four up to the planned lift filming day can have a 10% increase or more in daily cases from the day before.

If both requirements are met on each of the four days before a planned in-person lift filming day, the in-person lift filming plans will exist. If during any of the four days before a planned lift filming event are the requirements unmet, I will have a virtual alternative in place. This will be my new rule for the remainder of the pandemic until the following conditions are met on a consistent basis (13 weeks):

  • U.S. cases: 9,999 or fewer per day
  • New Jersey cases: 249 or fewer per day

Virtual Alternatives

If a lift filming day should be switched to virtual for any reason, I will prepare buildings using the Skyscraper Simulator to supplement before the lift filming day.

In-person Lift Filming

During the pandemic, live lift filming is off limits. However, a tik tok account at @clinton.township.lifts will be created for short lift filming skits.

In-Person Lift Filming Plans

The plan is to go to Short Hills Mall on December 17 at 5:15 PM.
Lifts to be filmed (In order of increase distance away from Nordstrom):

  1. Auxiliary Lift
  2. Nordstrom Lifts
  3. Macys Lift
  4. Yellow Carpark Lifts
  5. Crate and Barrel Lift

Virtual Lift Filming Plans

The plan is to film one building in Skyscrapersim at 5:30 PM should there be extenuating circumstances not allowing me to film lifts in-person on December 17. The current options are:

  • Guy’s Hospital
  • Spire Mod (Non-stop only from CL to 176)
  • Triton Center (Hotel Section)
  • Coalham Housing Estate (Skywalk Terrace only)

Regardless of which route I choose, the lift videos will be compiled into a movie to be uploaded to my YouTube Channel on the day of my fifth anniversary which is December 26 at 9:30 AM & 11:00 PM, respectively. Additionally, an Excel Spreadsheet will be used to track the percentage gain/loss of coronavirus cases from each of the 4 days leading up to December 17.

Why Schindler & KONE make the best traction lifts

Over the past 2 & a half years of filming lifts at different buildings all over the Eastern Seaboard, I have managed to film a handful of OTIS, Schindler, ThyssenKrupp & KONE traction lifts. Here is my assumption: Schindler & KONE make the best traction & MRL traction lifts of any of the 4 major lift brands. Of course, this could be based on personal bias, but it doesn’t go without knowledge that Schindler lifts, are in fact, more efficient time-based than let’s say, ThyssenKrupp lifts. Here are some things that I really love about Schindler & KONE traction lifts. Their fast acceleration / leveling It is no surprise that Schindler & KONE have some of the fastest average accelerating rates of any major lift brand. This is because Schindler & KONE have a perfect reference-tackle system, which is almost unbeatable by standards of other lift brands. One thing I have noticed when riding Schindler lifts is even at low speeds (200-400 FPM), you head feels like...

Found the source of the problems with my PC

I am proud to finally tell y’all that I believe I have found a definite source of the problems I have been experiencing with my Windows PC over the past few days. It was because of a faulty Windows 10 preview update which was affecting the Windows 10 Recovery Environment. Luckily, I have found a trustworthy program (free of malware) which I could use to debug errors in my PC at any time, minor or major. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s happened when I tried to fix windows PC’s in the past. I am still taking  every precaution possible to further decrease the chance of my Windows PC breaking down or crashing. As a matter of fact, my PC almost crashed  this morning , but luckily, I was able to hard-restart the PC to get it working again by holding the power button down for 15-20 seconds. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s h...

THE OTIS IN ANAHEIM

Before writing this report, let me quickly give you some background on the lifts and escalators that I have seen during my time at DisneyLand in Anaheim, California with my family. Brief Overview While I was at DisneyLand in Anaheim, I have encountered four sets of very tall MontgomeryKONE escalators, a set of two very fast MontgomeryKONE traction units (partially outdoor as the first landing had a rear door that opened on the outside of the building), this OTIS hydro here that I managed to ride and film & another OTIS hydro that I didn’t get to ride nor film. These lifts, regardless, were still very awesome lifts, but for now, I will be going into a description of this amazing lift. What made this lift so amazing? This particular lift is so amazing because it’s a full-blown commercial hydraulic lift installed fully outdoors , which is rather unusual for an outdoor lift. This alone made it amazing. Upon first glance, it looks like a pretty standard lift that you would typical...
