The handler, thought to be employed by the award-winning international handling service, Swissport, could be seen throwing bags from several feet away from the belt as his colleagues walked up to the belt before carefully placing each bag down.
Mr Marasco posted a video of the scene to Twitter with the caption: 'Great to see one of the baggage handlers at @EdiAirport taking no care with bags - no wonder things get broken @Swissport.
