Escalators are moving stairs that can suck you into the gears underneath and turn you into ground meat if you get caught in the teeth at the end of them. Doesn't surprise me that people are hesitant to walk on them as you're much more likely to trip and fall walking on stairs vs standing. Better to let them safely carry you up or down, then safely step off at the end.
