Joe Biden had an unfortunate moment during a graduation ceremony at the Air Force Academy in Colorado.
The 80-year-old US President was seen stumbling and falling, shocking onlookers. Immediately, a uniformed man and members of their bodyguards rushed over to his side.
Then Joe Biden got up and walked to his seat, showing no serious ways.
Video: The moment Joe Biden fell
According to the White House, Biden has stumbled into a black sandbag. Footage of the incident shows the United States’ most senior sitting president pointing at a sandbag on the podium after getting to his feet.
“Fine. There was a bag of sand on the podium while he was shaking hands,” White House Communications Director Ben Lampoldt wrote on Twitter.
The US President was seen walking in front of his motorcade when the ceremony ended shortly after he fell.
However, recent polls show that the majority of American voters are concerned about Joe Biden’s age.
Watch Joe Biden fall frame by frame
This isn’t the first time Joe Biden has stumbled, as two years ago he was caught on camera stumbling three times on the stairs of Air Force One. Then the American president quickly got up and climbed the stairs alive from the entrance to the plane.
And the somersaults that the US president made on his bike last June went viral. While cycling with First Lady Jill Biden near their vacation home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, he had trouble taking his shoes off the pedals and fell off the bike.
