Between the ads and multiple interceptions, Super Bowl 50 already had a lot of great moments by half time.

But one moment stood out more than any other - Beyoncé almost fell down during the hal time show.

Performing with Coldplay and Bruno Mars, Beyoncé and her army of dancers took center stage. During one intense dance move, however, Beyoncé went down to the ground and almost lost her balance.

Here's the moment:

Twitter immediately picked up on the almost embarrassing fall:

But instead of letting gravity bring her down, Beyoncé recovered like a true performer and jumped back up, not letting it phase her at all.

And Twitter couldn't handle her amazing recovery:

There were numerous theories for how she recovered, from the Illumanati to divine intervention:
