Theo Von is blaming Logan and Jake Paul for his viral fall during the inauguration of President Donald Trump.

When the prestigious ceremony got underway, Von’s chair collapsed while Logan filmed. The embarrassing moment quickly made its way around the web — garnering more than seven million views.

Von hopped on X today (Jan. 21) to blame the Paul brothers for what happened. Reposting the video of the incident, Von wrote, “wasn’t an accident. Paul kids thought it was 😂 to mess with the chair. there’s a time and a place ya know. L.”

Yesterday, Von wrote, “thought we was past the pranks boys 🤷🏼” when Logan shared the video and he seemed to be in good spirits. But today, when commenting on what happened, he seemed a bit more serious. He told a user during a response that he felt like he “fell thru to another world” and that he’s feeling “ok. My lawyer says im not tho.”

In another response, he confirmed that he’s “all good” after the fall. When someone told him to press charges, Von wrote, “chair-ges” — leaving the door open on whether he’d pursue legal action on the Paul brothers. He did however hint at the outcome if Logan and Jake ever wanted to get in the ring and box against him. “I will DDT their whole gene pool” he wrote.

President Trump’s inauguration brought out many celebrities and political figures to show support. Among those in attendance were former Democratic President Barack Obama and former Republican President George W. Bush. Hillary Clinton, and Bernie Sanders.

A large number of tech CEOs were at the inauguration as well, such as Amazon Founder Jeff Bezos, Apple CEO Tim Cook, Google CEO Sundar Pichai, former Fox Corp executive chairman Rupert Murdoch, and Elon Musk.
