US President Joe Biden trips and falls, jokes 'got sandbagged'

Joe Biden tripped and fell after handing out the last diploma at a graduation ceremony at the US Air Force Academy on June 1. The 80-year-old US President quickly got up on one knee, helped by three people, and walked back to his seat unassisted. White House Communications Director Ben LaBolt took to Twitter and informed that Biden was fine.

Former President Donald Trump also reacted to Biden’s fall, saying he hoped President Joe Biden “wasn't hurt” after he tripped and fell.

Answering questions, Biden jokingly said, “I got sandbagged”.
