Biden stumbles on Air Force One stairs

_White House spokesperson blames windy weather after Biden loses his footing three times boarding presidential plane_

President Joe Biden unexpectedly missed his steps twice  yesterday, 19 March 2021 as he climbed the stairs to Air Force One.

He was on his way to Georgia.

The triple stumble came as Biden, at 78 the oldest person ever elected US president, was departing for Atlanta from Joint Base Andrews in Maryland.


About halfway up the red carpeted stairs, Biden could be seen losing his footing before stumbling three times, eventually ending up on his left knee while still holding the railing with his right hand. 

Luckily for him, he got hold of the railing and steadied himself. The president got back up, gave his left knee a rub and ascended the rest of the staircase before turning and saluting US marines who had flown him by helicopter to the airport from the White House.
