President Joe Biden was whisked away from a ceremonial event commemorating the 80th anniversary of D-Day after suddenly bending over and crouching, leaving French President Emmanuel Macron stunned.
World leaders gathered on Omaha Beach, Normandy, France, to honor the hundreds who died in 1944, taking a key western entrance to the country in World War II.
As veterans prepared to shake hands with the presidents, Biden was suddenly whisked away, leaving Macron on his own to shake hands with the events attendess.
Biden could be seen keeling over as Dr. Biden, Macron, and his spouse, Brigitte Macron, stood straight.
Dr. Biden appeared to cover her face, unsure of what to do as her husband looked like he downloading a diaper.

The British Express reported: While Macron stopped to greet other attendees, Biden seemed confused, looking left and right as if unsure of his surroundings.
At one point, Macron looked over and gave Biden a thumbs up, seemingly concerned about his counterpart’s state.
Throughout the national anthems of both France and the United States, which played back-to-back, Macron kept a watchful eye on Biden, who took off his sunglasses and adopted a more composed demeanor.
