President Biden stumbled twice and fell as he scaled the stairs to Air Force One on Friday at Joint Base Andrews.
The president was briskly climbing the stairs to the presidential jet before appearing to trip, attempting to gather himself, then tripping again. A reporter in the pool following Biden reported that it’s a windy day at Andrews.
From one camera angle, Biden's entire torso went out of view when he stumbled the second time, though his hand can be seen still holding onto the railing of the jet stairs. Biden then got up and made it the rest of the way up the jet stairs.

Another video angle from Hill TV shows that Biden was down on his knee for a moment, before getting up and pausing briefly with one hand on the railing and the other rubbing his knee.

Biden in December fractured his foot while chasing his dog.
Top American leaders have a history of struggling with the stairs used to board the aircraft meant to carry them around the world and keep them safe from attack.
Former Vice President Mike Pence last year stumbled while boarding Air Force 2. And Biden's previous boss, former President Barack Obama, nearly fell down Air Force One's stairs while disembarking the aircraft in 2015.
