He landed harder than the Blue Origin flight.
Jeff Bezos was seen face-planting outside of the Blue Origin spacecraft after his fiancée, Lauren Sánchez, and her all-women crew traveled to space and landed back in Texas Monday.
The Amazon founder was seen walking around the rocket before unknowingly stepping into a small ditch and losing his balance.
The tech tycoon, 61, took a nosedive into the dirt, catching himself with his hands in a push-up position. However, he quickly pulled himself back up.
Several netizens reacted to Bezos eating dirt during the historic moment via social media Monday.
“Bezos was so excited to hug his fiancée post-landing, he tripped and hit the ground. Billionaire moves—grace not included,” one person wrote on X.
“Jeff Bezos planting face in front baddies, lol Well done @blueorigin,” a second person roasted.
“That’s why he sent the women first 🤣,” another laughed.
Bezos was seen giving the “Fly Who Flew To Space” author a massive bear hug after she safely landed with her all-women Blue Origin NS-31 crew.
He was also spotted watching enthusiastically in the star-studded crowd as the shuttle shot into space.
For Sánchez’s trip to space and back, which lasted only 10 minutes, she was joined by Katy Perry, Gayle King, NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen and film producer Kerianne Flynn.
The six women wore full glam and stunning custom blue uniforms designed by Sánchez for the journey.
Prior to takeoff, the billionaire offered some words of encouragement to Sánchez and her team.
“I’m so excited for you. I don’t want to get off. I want to go with you,” he told the group of women. “When you get back, I can’t wait to hear how it’s changed you. I love all of you. See you soon. Godspeed.”
