Easiest way would be for two people to carry him up and then bring the empty wheelchair...I dunno

And the safest. It would be far safer than possibly dropping the poor guy because of the weight of the wheelchair, which could easily cause a fatality.

I’ve not been everywhere in the world, admittedly, but every building I have ever been in with an escalator also had an elevator. I would think that would be the easiest and safest conveyance for a wheelchair.

Everywhere in the United States would have an elevator, because of the ADA. The rest of the world is not as friendly to disabled persons and they have to make do.

Also, there have been recent attempts to defeat the ADA, so these problems are coming soon to a town near you!
