'Wheel of Fortune' host Ryan Seacrest face-plants while attempting stunt on game show

"Wheel of Fortune" host Ryan Seacrest is no stranger to onstage mishaps. 

During the May 19 episode of the beloved game show, the 50-year-old TV host took a tumble during the closing segment, igniting a wholesome response from co-host Vanna White

While wrapping up the "Margaritaville"-themed episode, Seacrest tripped over his feet and managed to do a full somersault while trying to get onto his inflatable parrot-shaped pool float.

"I need a breather after that," he told White, who was comfortably lounging on her float. "Why do you look like you’ve done this before?"

"Because I have. Just relax," she responded.

"I’ve never heard that term before," he joked. 

"Ryan Seacrest is my spirit animal," one fan commented. 

This is not the first time the TV host has wiped out on stage. In April, Seacrest took a dramatic tumble while filming the game show. 

During the episode, he revealed that one of his favorite new festivals is the Gloucestershire Cheese Rolling Festival, which is hosted in the United Kingdom. He explained that participants at the festival race down a hill to chase after a wheel of cheese. At the end of the race, participants win the massive cheese wheel. 

In an effort to demonstrate, Seacrest took a tumble and face-planted on the stage.

"Oh no! Are you going to be OK?" White asked Seacrest before confirming, "He’s OK!"

The "American Idol" host ran back to center stage and held up the "Wheel of Fortune" cheese. He then hid behind White, out of breath and waved goodnight to the viewers. 

In one viral moment from a March episode, a former professional wrestler named Bill Page put Seacrest in a headlock.

Page was seen grabbing Seacrest by the neck, with one arm underneath the host's chin and the other firmly on top of his head. At first, Seacrest did not resist and was all smiles. However, as Page continued to hold the host in a headlock and lowered his body to the ground, Seacrest began to tap out. 

The host continuously banged his hand on the game show table, as he indicated that he had enough of the intense wrestling move.

FBI investigating killing of Israeli Embassy employees as possible hate crime

The killing of two Israeli Embassy employees near the Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. is being investigated as a hate crime, according to the FBI.

Steven Jensen, the assistant director in charge of the FBI Washington field office, said in a news conference that the federal law enforcement entity is working alongside the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) to "look into ties to potential terrorism or motivation based on a bias-based crime or a hate crime."

D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser hosted the news conference alongside law enforcement, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Israel's ambassador to the U.S., Yechiel Leiter, and others.

She echoed Jensen's comments, saying that "the FBI's role, of course, as always when there is any possibility of a terrorist act, or acts motivated by hate or other bias, the FBI will be conducting those investigations.

"We will not tolerate any acts of terrorism," she said during the news conference. "We will not tolerate antisemitism."

The victims were identified as Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, a couple who both worked at the embassy. They were shot around 9:08 p.m. Wednesday.

Lischinsky was born in Israel and grew up in Germany. His father is Jewish and his mother is Christian.

Milgrim was an American employee of the embassy.

Leiter said the two victims were dating and on the verge of engagement, and that Lischinsky had "purchased a ring this week with the intention of proposing to his girlfriend next week in Jerusalem."

The event at the museum was for young Jewish professionals who work in foreign policy. 

According to MPD Chief Pamela Smith, the suspect is 30-year-old Elias Rodriguez of Chicago, who was pacing outside the museum during the event, and yelled "Free, free Palestine" while he was in police custody. The suspect's weapon has been recovered.  

"Last night’s act of terror has the full attention of your FBI," FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said in a post on X on Thursday morning. "Targeted acts of anti-Semitic violence are typically carried out by spineless, gutless cowards. And the penalties will be harsh as we tighten up this investigation and run down any additional leads. I should have additional updates for you shortly as I head back to FBI HQ."

Jason Pack, a retired FBI supervisory special agent, told Fox News Digital that "all signs point to a hate-driven act."

"Right now, the FBI, Diplomatic Security Service and D.C. Police are going through the suspect’s entire digital life—his phone, social media, and contacts—to figure out if this was a lone act or something bigger," he said.

"Whether it gets officially classified as domestic terrorism is up to prosecutors, but the motive and the setting—a Jewish museum, Israeli diplomats—it’s hard to ignore the larger message behind it," he said. 

Pack said that the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force is taking the lead in the investigation specifically because the killings were an attack on a cultural institution in the middle of Washington, D.C., and that federal agencies are already increasing security at Jewish sites across the country. 

Pack also said that though it appears the suspect acted alone, the FBI will dig its heels in to determine whether anyone else knew of the plan, or whether he was encouraged to carry out an attack by anyone else.
