Lebanese President Michel Aoun tripped as Arab heads of state gathered at the start of their summit at the Dead Sea in Jordan on Wednesday, television footage showed.
Aoun appeared to trip on a red-carpeted podium where flags of Arab states had been arranged to take a souvenir photograph. Two men in suits rushed to help him to his feet as Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi stood nearby.
It should be noted that President Aoun stood back up, totally fine.
His daughter Claudine Roukoz, wife of retired veteran Chamel Roukoz, jokingly said on Facebook, "I will not make fun of your fat belly anymore! It saved your life today."
En route to the same meeting, Dubai's ruler, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, also slipped as he disembarked from a plane on arrival in Amman, stumbling as he reached the bottom of the stairs down to the runway, where a group of people was waiting to meet him.
