U.S. President Joe Biden, on Friday, missed his steps thrice, tripping in the process.
He was boarding the Air Force One when the minor accident happened.
His destination: Air Force One took off shortly afterwards from outside the capital Washington for a flight to Atlanta, where
Biden was to meet members of the Asian-American community which has been shocked by a series of shootings in massage parlors.
The American leader, 78, had proceeded swiftly about halfway up the airstairs to the presidential jet when he stumbled.
Holding on to the railing with his right hand, he attempted a quick recovery but tripped again, this time dropping to his knee.
Biden stood up, paused and brushed his left pant leg before he headed up to the top of the airstairs, turned and saluted, and then entered the aircraft.
“He is doing fine. He is doing just great,” deputy press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters about Biden’s stumble.
