Obama's Cadillac gets stuck at American Embassy in Dublin

President Barack Obama today opened a four-country, 6-day European tour when Air Force One landed in Ireland. Accompanying the President Obama is his wife, Michelle Obama, who will also travel with him to Moneygall, a tiny village where the Obama’s maternal great-great-great-grandfather was born.

Either way, after a short visit at the American Embassy in Dublin, Barack and Michelle climbed aboard the Cadillac One (aka The Beast) – a GMC Topkick-based armored limo. Things got a little crazy as the President, first lady and the secret service were leaving the embassy and ‘The Beast’ met ‘The Bump’ … or ‘The Hump.’

Now we’re not sure if this was one of the decoy Cadillac Ones or the one that Barack and Michelle were actually inside of – but it’s amusing nonetheless.

Let’s just say Obama’s Caddy wasn’t the only vehicle that day to scrape the ground; however it was the only one to make a loud bang and get stuck.

Hit the jump for two videos of the incident.

    Hmmm…Guess security did not see that coming…lol! Wonder if embassy will fix that crazy driveway hump?!? I am sure for a split second Obama was thinking, “Oh, s**t its finally happening!!! Oh wait, stupid driveway!”

    Memo – Add adjustable air shocks to The Beast.
