He was very lucky that his minders were attentive and alert. Their prevention of him crashing to the ground probably saved his life. It can happen to anyone - young or old.

I think he should resign and go and take care of his health because health is wealth. @ 70+ I am enjoying everyday of my life with my hard earned money and pension allowance. The job of governance and any other work should be left for those under the pension age.
