US President Joe Biden has been videoed tripping up the stairs of Air Force One on several occasions, to the entertainment of many, but he took a big stumble on Thursday that looked very serious..The president took his worst fall ever while handing out diplomas at a graduation ceremony for the US Air Force Academy in Colorado, reports the US division of the BBC..“Mr. Biden, who is the nation's oldest serving president at 80, was seen being helped up by Air Force officials and walking back to his seat unassisted,” says BBC..“The president had been standing for about an hour and-a-half to shake hands with each of the 921 graduating cadets.”.“He's fine,” White House communications director, Ben LaBolt, tweeted shortly after the incident, reports The Daily Mail. “There was a sandbag on stage while he was shaking hands.”.Biden also took a stumble while visiting the Itsukushima Shrine in Hiroshima, Japan..“During that event, there was a railing available on some stairs the president had to navigate down,” says The Mail..“He ignored the railing and stumbled, restoring his balance while walking downward. Biden also stumbled while boarding Air Force One in March on a trip to Selma, Alabama.” .The falls come in a presidential race where Biden's age has already become an issue, says The Mail, adding, “He would be 82 when he is sworn in if he wins a second term.”.Former President Donald Trump questioned Biden’s mental and physical capacities, saying, “Well, I hope he wasn't hurt,” when told about Biden's incident Thursday..BBC reports Biden was “seen jogging back to his motorcade when the ceremony ended shortly after his fall” adding, “Recent polls suggest a majority of US voters have concerns about the president's age.”
