German chancellor Angela Merkel tripped over as she made her way to a stage last night. After she recovered her balance Merkel joked on it.
“I WILL TAKE THE STAIRS NEXT TIME”
Merkel, who was forced to sit down during national anthems after a series of health scares over the summer, fell over as she took to the podium at a business event in Berlin on Wednesday evening.
The 65-year-old said she had failed to notice the staircase leading up to the stage and lost her balance as she tried to climb up.
