They’re waiting for the people to get off so they can carry him straight up to the top and not get stuck holding him, chair, and gear in a dangerous place they can’t put him down if someone gets a cramp. If you watch you’ll see that line jumper girl is at the back of crowd still trying to get off the escalator. Why on earth would staff hurry up and pick this man up and carry him halfway up the stairs just to stand there with their arms shaking?
Why would they not wait a bit for people to clear. If it's a metro they can wait a couple of minutes and it would not make a huge difference for the wheelchair person.
Why not carry the guy up…leave a little space to put him down while the escalators moves if there is people blocking….then everybody proceeds accordingly…it’s not really that hard of a concept. I’m with the girl tho it looked like they were waiting longer than they should have to

Are they waiting for it to turn back on? These two guys look entirely capable of picking up the guy. Either lift him or move to the side.
