The World's Tallest Elevator

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Elevator Problem Discussion : One Thread

I'm currently working on a television program in Copenhagen, Denmark. The program contains a competition where the prize is a free trip to the country where the world's tallest elevator is (height, not speed). Please could somebody tell me where it is? Is it Singapore? Hong Kong? Kuala Lumpur? Please help, Kind regards Eva Jensen

There are man-lift elevators in potash mines in Saskatchewan, Canada that are taller than 3,500 feet. But these may be drum-winch type rather than counterweighted elevators. Do these qualify?
