US President Joe Biden made headlines after shaking hands with graduates at his commencement speech at the Air Force Academy in Colorado on the 1st (local time) and then falling down while returning to the stage.

On the 1st (local time), Reuters and AFP reported news of President Biden’s speech that day, and reported that he tripped over an object while returning to the stage after awarding diplomas to graduates after his speech.

The object was identified as a small, black bag of sand on the stage.

Security guards from the Secret Service (SS) and school officials nearby were surprised and immediately ran out, and President Biden stood up immediately after being supported by three people.

President Biden also pointed to the bag of sand as he got up.

White House Communications Director Ben Ravolt later tweeted that “he (President Biden) is fine.” He then explained that he had tripped on a bag of sand on the stage and fell over.

President Biden is known to have suffered no separate injuries.

Meanwhile, with President Biden, the oldest ever, concerns about health problems are constantly being raised. In June of last year, while riding his bike at Cape Henlofen State Park near Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, where he has a private vacation home, he tripped on a pedal clip and fell while trying to stop.

Also, in March 2021, he tripped and fell while climbing the stairs lightly to board the presidential plane Air Force One.

In addition to frequent falls, frequent mistakes in speech are also the reason why the ‘health anomaly’ about President Biden continues.

Last month, at the G7 summit held in Hiroshima, Japan, South Korean President Yoon Seok-yeol was called “President Roon,” showing confusion over names. He misunderstood President Yoon’s surname as ‘run’ and made the wrong remark.

In addition, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has also been referred to as ‘President Kishida’ twice, and is frequently rumored.
