Jeff Bezos went viral last Monday (14) after tripping embarrassingly while on his way to hug his fiancée, who had just taken a brief trip through the Earth’s atmosphere.
Journalist Lauren Sanchez, the 61-year-old billionaire’s fiancée, participated in a space tourism mission with an all-female crew made up of singer Katy Perry, CBS host Gayle King, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen, film producer Kerianne Flynn, and former NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe.
However, after the brief spaceflight, Bezos was on his way to greet his fiancée, who had just exited the New Shepard rocket capsule, when he misstepped and fell flat on his face in a truly embarrassing manner.
Bezos got up and continued as if nothing had happened, but the video, which came from a live stream hosted by Blue Origin to document the flight, ended up circulating on social media. Check out the video here:
Jeff Bezos was so emotional about sending his wife to space that he even fell near the capsule after the crew’s return.
