Video of Joe Biden tripping twice and then falling while running up the steps of Air Force One has gone viral on social media.
While trying to board the Air Force One on Friday, US President Joe Biden stumbled upon a staircase twice and then fell.
Following the mass firing at a parlour earlier this week, Biden was headed to Atlanta where the US Prez is expected to meet Asian-American community leaders, when the aforementioned incident happened.
The 78-year-old US President tripped twice before falling over the third time as he flew up the stairs of the idling aircraft at Joint Base Andrews, reported news agency ANI quoting New York Post.

The US President, in the video, appeared to take a moment to dust off his knee before holding on to the side railings of the staircase as he tries to climb amid a “windy weather”.
Biden then gave a salute and ducked into the cabin.

Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, according to reports, told White House pool reporters that the president was “doing fine” after the fall.
“It was very windy. I almost fell coming up the steps myself. He is doing 100 per cent,” she was quoted as saying by the Independent.
“He’s doing fine. He’s preparing for the trip just fine.”
White House Communications Director Kate Bedingfield, taking to Twitter, said: “I know folks have seen that President Biden slipped on his way up the stairs to AF1, but I’m happy to report that he is just fine and did not even require any attention from the medical team who travels with him. Nothing more than a misstep on the stairs.”
