Gists: Temper, Temper Pope Loses After Someone Pushed Him Down

Pope Francis was walking at the edge of a crowd in an stadium in Mexico when he was pulled into admirers. Pope Francis clearly lost his temper with a person who pulled on him so hard that he fell onto a man in a wheelchair....


Video footage showed the Pontiff , who is usually calm and accommodating with his admirers, was walking in an stadium in Mexico when he stopped to greet a crowd of hundreds.

Two arms appeared to reach out and grab him but the person would not let go, even after the pope lost his balance and his chest was pressing on the disabled man's head.

Aides and security men stopped the Pope from falling to the ground.

After he returned to an upright position, his face turned angry.

He looked at the person, raised his voice and said twice in Spanish: "Don't be selfish!"

It was not clear if the person who pulled the pope was a man or a woman.

Francis, the first Latin American pope, is traveling to some of the poorest and most violent corners of Mexico on a six-day trip to bring a message of hope to millions of poor people.
