The statement "Well, aren't you graceful!" is sarcastic because the speaker is actually expressing the opposite sentiment of what they are literally saying. They are mocking the person for being clumsy and tripping, rather than actually complimenting their gracefulness. The use of exclamation mark and laughing tone also emphasize the insincerity of the statement.
