Likely that his suitcase would stay on the individual step that it was placed on, due to poorly judging the weight distribution of the luggage and width of the step. A LOT of people (I'd even say the majority) kinda suck at just eyeballing physics like that. It's why you generally see a ton of warning signs in the states to NOT place luggage / shopping carts / baby strollers on the escalator.

Yeah it did. Thats when I also realized that the suitcase had some momentum going with it too. Fucking double whammy. Not the business

Yeah, thought they were just gonna walk away and leave their luggage at the bottom of the escalator, wasn't expecting the woman to eat it.

I feel bad but that was the funniest part. I expected it to just bump into her but that shit came shooting down like a torpedo. Shit caught me off guard and had me cracking up, but I stopped laughing when I saw the stretcher. Then I just felt bad.

At first I had a giggle, then upon seeing the lady hit I stopped and felt bad for her. Having said that I now cannot shake the feeling that the whole thing is a set up. My reasoning is based primarily on the camera angles.

The initial and final camera angles do not make sense to me. Why would they have a camera at the top of the escalator to capture the backs of people going down? If they were to have a camera at the top surely it would be positioned to capture peoples faces.

Also the final camera angle doesn't make any sense either, other than to capture an event such as it did. Why would they have a camera zoomed in to capture people exiting the escalator, especially taking into account the camera positioned on the whole escalator which to me makes more sense if it were in an airport or shopping centre.

I think the whole thing is a set up, whether for a comedy skit, a tv show or movie, or just as a prank.

Edit: Another reason I think it's a set up is why does the guy wait after putting the first suitcase on the escalator before putting the second one on if he thought it was a conveyor belt? He waits holding the blue suitcase for a good couple of seconds before the first suitcase topples down the escalator.

you have no idea if the video is cropped, it could be wide enough to capture both up and down.

They can just cut out the sides for privacy of the people unrelated to incident.

I don't think he thought it was a conveyor belt, just that it wasn't going to fall.

Probably doesn't realize escalator stairs are not right angles and the steps protrude on each other which pushed the suitcase off.

I knew it was gonna go down fast the moment that person placed the luggage standing up like that.

The wheels can pick up momentum, especially on a surface that moves (escalators in this case)
The escalators themselves are fairly narrow so a luggage like that can easily tip over. At this point, gravity and momentum building from a fall like that can make a luggage come down like a torpedo
