Distance between the top and 2nd topmost is too high along with the 2nd topmost being too shallow.

Stepping down sucks because you’re not expecting it to be so far down. It being too shallow causes a miss because there’s not enough footing.

Stepping up that last step requires a bit more effort. You can see the dudes leg give out because he’s carrying someone heavier than him and his knee makes a right angle reaching up to put his foot flat on top.

Also, alcoholism.
