President Joe Biden stumbled multiple times then fell going up the stairs while boarding Air Force One on Friday for a trip to Atlanta, Georgia.
Biden left the White House by Marine One and arrived at Joint Base Andrews where he walked to AF1 and was headed up the stairs when he got half way up and appeared to have trouble getting his footing on the steps. (RELATED: Biden Calls Kamala Harris ‘President Harris’)
Biden then recovered only to stumble once again and then fell down completely onto the stairs. He then got his feet under him and recovered, dusted something off his pants and managed to finally get onboard the plane.
Several clips of the fall have surfaced on Twitter showing a far away angle. (RELATED: Scarborough Questions Trump’s Health: ‘Stumble For Stumble … Even Worse’ Than Biden)
