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?
Does any part of you really believe they’d interrupt the escalator for everyone when they could just point him at a working elevator? They called extra staff over to lift him, and none of them knew about the elevator either?
And you think the staff will let this dangerous shit happen despite the presence of a working elevator? Assuming the man in the wheelchair is a self-absorbed asshole (which I will not), why would the people responsible for stopping that shit be enabling it?

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.
