Around 9.40am, while riding his bicycle in a coastal town where he has a villa overlooking the ocean, Biden fell off his bicycle.
Joe Biden, 79, fell from his stopped bicycle this morning in Delaware where he spends his weekend.
However, o American president he got up very quickly and assured that she was “well”.
At around 9.40am, while riding his bicycle in Richoboth Beach, a seaside town with an oceanfront villa, Biden fell, according to a White House-accredited journalist.
The American president tried to stop to talk to passers-by and the journalists who were waiting for him, but he found it difficult to get his foot off the pedal and fell sideways, while the bicycle was immobilized.
He was immediately surrounded by his security men, but he got up very quickly.
When asked how he felt, he replied “I’m fine”.
Biden wore shorts, blue sneakers, a cycling helmet and gloves. In the video released, the journalist does not seem to have been injured by the fall.
Biden then talked for about 5 minutes with passersby and reporters, got back on the bike and left.
He was accompanied on this walk by his wife Jill, who, however, did not see the fall, as she had continued her course.
The health of all American presidents is closely monitored, but Biden even more so because of his age. In November 2020, Biden, who had been elected president but had not yet taken office, broke his leg while playing with one of his dogs, Major. A year later, in November 2021, his doctor reported that he was in good health and fully fit to perform his duties.
