THIS is the hilarious moment boxing legend Mike Tyson attempts to pull off a skateboard trick.
But he instead falls off the board before toppling backwards into a chair.
Tyson, 56, is known for his larger-than-life personality both inside and outside the ring.
And while interviewing skateboarding icon Tony Hawk on his Hotboxin’ podcast, Tyson decided to give things a try himself.
Jumping up on the board, the former heavyweight boxing champ looked to be in control as he showed off to pals.
But things went wrong when Tyson appeared to attempt a trick.

But Tyson could not prevent himself from falling off the board completely.
He went crashing into a chair while also knocking part of his podcast set.
But thankfully Tyson’s seat took the brunt of the fall and the rest of his props were left undamaged.
