The WORST elevator I've ever been on- Schindler Hydraulic in Santa Monica CA 

1:58 I thought that was the guy screaming for a sec 😂

0:45 “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!” ELEVATOR SCREECHES...

1:50 sounds like a out of balance washing machine

0:47 Noooooooooooo! LOL 😂

When listening to the elevator going down, I can understand Alpaljl' react at the beginning

This made me laugh so hard when the elevator is vibrating and Alex’s laughter just making everything even funnier than it already is.. 🤣🤣

alpalJL's "Noooooooooo!" should be used in videos featuring a once epic elevator that got a modernization.

AlpalJL's reaction was hilarious!! I really did enjoy that!

I loved it how he yelled NOOO! , and then all of a sudden it becomes a death trap

That reaction from alpaljl was just priceless

1:15 Minecraft piston elevators be like...

0:47 This is so funny

3:46 "There’s Mr. Security!" *Get outta here fools!*

I always laugh and imitate when Alex went “NOOOOOOOOOO!” Really I just love hearing him laugh.

0:45 FILECHIA

I just rode this a few days ago.. the elevator is fixed but the store is closing.

1:55 R.I.P. Headphone Users!

Alex seems like such a riot. He's probably fun af.

"This store is closing" - Erik Magnuson

That is the worst Schindler installation I have ever seen! It is not worthy to have a certificate of operation!

Wins the "Major Taylor Award". (Especially if you use "Balarick" for a search term, it was proven shaky as all hell then.)

Says at 1:50: It sounds like someone's banging on the elevator doors like he/she got left out as the elevator moves.

You guys looked like you were having a lot of fun! also LOL at 1:49-2:12.

I can tell before reading or watching anything that this is at Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica, when I rode this in January, it was really smooth and good condition.

Late comment to this video. Alpaljl's reaction at 0:47 & 1:55 made this video funnier than the elevator itself.

This was the craziest elevator, as alex made it even more crazy.

I'm glad that Nordstroms was busy... And I was in a rush, or we would have never come here! I'd love to see you in the future as well.

sounds like a washing machine that's about to break down between that and a subway in ny passing fast alexwas funny NOOOOO

I came back to check up on this elevator... fixed :(

It sounds like the NYC subway! Haha

A+ for that being a death trap lol

Love to see the machine room.

VERY late comment to an old video, I know. But I used to constantly rewatch this video out of fascination! I think the cause of this issue is lack of oil/lubricant on the hydraulic piston. I experienced severe rumbling on an older MontgomeryKONE hydro before, and it acted similarly to this. The scraping when leveling going up points to my notion of the cause. A lot of people claim it's a guide rail or guide wheels/rollers, but the squeaking being caused by that just doesn't make sense to me. Still very bizarre, but it is very unfortunate we lost this store out of relevancy. I would've loved to ride this if this store was still open.

This reminds me of the parking garage elevators at Roosevelt Field in Garden City, NY when they were running badly! Those might have been worse though. I wonder if this elevator will still be this way next time I go to this area, but I assume it will get fixed. 2:30 Would it have ran with the hoistway doors open that far? I don't think they should be able to open that far.

I bet everyone in the building must here this thing running! This is DEFINETLY a SIMON Mall.

Gotten worse with WI Siren And Elevators filmed it. But that's your fine example of a typical Schindler quality!

How that thing is still working I don't know 🤣🤣 "We invite if you dare to step aboard, cos in tonight's episode, you are the star, and this Elevator travels directly to... The Twilight Zone 😂😂

I wonder what people think when they just hear a faint voice yelling NOOOOO

I died when he said NOOO

1:50 LOL!😆

Seems like a perfect elevator😉

Hmm.. Seems like the indicator above the lift is showing advanced position but the one on the button panel is showing exact postiton. Also this is the worst hydraulic i have ever seen.

Should this elevator get replaced by a Schindler 5500?

Now this is one quick view.

This thing is wonderful...

THIS ELEVATOR IS WILD!

Now that’s what I call a death trap

I think we could easily call this the worst elevator in the US; maybe even the world.

That's no elevator. It's an unbalanced dryer. How has that not failed inspection?

Filechia would LOVE this one.

BTW; is this at Santa Monica Place? Because I see that landmark 1940s Sears store across the street.

High quality elevator!

And now it's kind of funny ever rode this elevator everybody is cowardly in fear. They think it was Twilight Zone LOL

Finnaly destination all over again

nice video you all. What was the name of the song playing in the video?

Going down was the worst first. and going up was the worst next.

That thing runs like it’s trying to become a generic

This is.. uh.. beautiful 😅

That was a piece of Schindler. It did sound like a unbalanced washing machine going down.

Leave it to Macy's Inc. to not maintain their elevators properly.......

Family friendly fun!

you wouldn't get me to ride that thing

the elevator is just fine.it has a lubricant problem with the tube and its connection and when it goes to slow speed(and its only 2 stops which means the speed doesnt go to high speed almost at all) it does this noise.

0:50 “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I hope they fixed that!

It sounds like a Minecraft piston elevator

THIS ELEVATOR HAS TWO PAIRS OF DOORS!

Shoutout to Bloomingdales in NY

it has the Schindler beep on the inside

We've been on a similar elevator at Dave and Busters and it was fast

They need to modernize this elevator very much and fix mechanical stuff.

why is it shaking

Im terrified of lifts

It's a Filechia RIPOFF!! I didn't hear anything since I was here.

0:47 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!😂😂😂😂

Now that's a death trap! Holy crap! And by the way, I found a Schindler elevator that broke the stereotype of the door close button not working on it. It's at this new apartment building I'm staying at for a few months. Brand new building, and the door close button actually works on the Schindler 330 YAY elevator they have there. Being that it's new, it runs very well. You really have to give the floor buttons a good press though. Otherwise, it's a nice elevator.

That sounds like my washing machine

I guess this beats Tyson corner mall's Macy's.

best video ever

Is this how Sants Monica kids spend their time?

That sounds scary

Probably it’s hitting something like the shaft guides

The elevator sounds like a train 🚂

what the heck happend to that elevator?did somebody put bricks in the shaft?

Oh my goddess!

U THOUGHT THAT WAS FUN? I think I would have passed out!

HHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. **scrape**

time for a new elevator !!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like an out of balance GE washer

its pulling blommingdales

Are you also going to northern Cailfornia (or did you already go to northern California), or did you just go to southern California?

Wow now that's a screwed up elevator but it's funny

Alex Alex acting crazy

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Isn't that Elevation Station Productions with you?

This is why I don't like Schindler that much :/

Ultimate Low On Oil

This is nothing compared to the elevator in my apartment building 😀

Wut was that
