I have not seen something like this in other videos, NOT TO SAY, they are not out there. Searching yielded nothing, so here I am:
You've seen the same "Ladder Elevator" concept in other videos, involving minecarts and ladders. While it's very fast, and clever, it is VERY EXSPENSIVE to do.
This is the alternative, and it is just as easy as it looks.
Simply a 1x1 meter shaft with a ladder inside, with all floors having at LEAST  a 3-meter tall doorway. Face backwards (back to ladder), press "Backward/Reverse" to traverse UP, nothing to go DOWN, and "Forward" to disembark, just past the floor level of any intermediate level. This is why you need a 3-meter tall doorway, to make getting off a lot easier.
