Possibly one of the most well-known falls in Hollywood history, no one could ever forget Jennifer Lawrence's massive blunder as she entered the stage at a prestigious Oscars award evening.
Everyone remembers it because, quite frankly, it's impossible to forget.
After graciously hugging her team and walking up to the podium, the Hunger Games star totally lost her footing and face-planted up the stairs for the whole world to see.

Lawrence, 32, was up against the likes of Jessica Chastain, Emmanuelle Riva, Naomi Watts and Quvenzhané Wallis to take home the Oscar for 'Best Actress in a Leading Role'.
The actor was nominated for her performance in the romantic-drama, Silver Linings Playbook, which she starred in alongside Bradley Cooper.
The movie went on to be a smash-hit after taking home an impressive $21 million at the box office.
However, that wasn't the only smash that soon became attached to the movie.
Upon hearing her name called out by the hosts, Lawrence hugged co-star Cooper and went to the stage to accept her award.
Overcome with emotion and excitement, Lawrence took just one step up the curved staircase and fell right on her face.
Luckily bracing herself with her hands, the actor promptly dusted herself off and made it up the stairs to the podium.
"You guys are just standing up because you feel bad that I fell," she began her acceptance speech.
She admitted: "I feel so embarrassed."
Speaking about the fall afterwards, Lawrence revealed that her brain went 'blank'.
"I can look back at it now that I'm a little bit older fondly, but for a very long time the fall thing was very sensitive," she explained in the podcast Absolutely Not in 2020.
And while Lawrence can now look back at the moment fondly, some people are having a hard time accepting the fact that the famed fall took place nearly ten whole years ago in 2013.
And the news has sent the internet into a frenzy, with many Twitter users wondering where all the time went.
One posted: "No way this was a decade ago, no way."
"It’s been a decade?! HOW," added another - clearly feeling the stress of the passing of time.
While a third added: "10 years already??"
And someone else just said: "I’m shook."
Clearly, measuring time using well-known pop culture moments is proving to be a lot more stressful than anyone of us could have imagined.
