Westinghouse ULTRA-FAST Elevators (High Rise) @ the Munich Re Centre in Toronto ON (HD)

Riding the extremely fast elevators serving floors 19-31 (High-Rise) at the Munich Re Centre. These are one of my most favourite elevators! Sorry about my dad having to go to the bathroom LOL! I got to ride the elevators that served the basement and the ones that didn’t. I think this elevator reached 1800FPM. Fastest Westinghouse Elevator I’ve ridden on! And filmed!
