Scary moment for Francis

This happened in Mexico;

For a Pope often seen as calm and collected, the look on his face after a mishap at a Mexican stadium came as a stunner.

The Pope was greeting a crowd in the city of Morelia on Tuesday when someone apparently grabbed him by the hand and wouldn't let go.

The worshiper ended up pulling the Pope down onto a young man in a wheelchair.

Francis regained his balance with the help of a security guard. But his normally smiling face morphed into a look of anger as he apparently yelled at the person in the crowd.


Hope everyone is OK.
