His dad may be a famous actor, but John Travolta’s son Benjamin may have a stuntman career in his future!
The Saturday Night Fever actor, who celebrated his milestone 70th birthday last month, shared a new video of his 13-year-old son taking on some daunting moguls and cliffs while skiing.
The Academy Award nominee is also a doting dad to daughter Ella, 23, who he shared with late wife Kelly Preston; the couple also shared son Jett, who passed away aged 16 in 2009 after suffering from a seizure.
Over the weekend, John took to Instagram and shared a video of Ben taking on his most daunting adventure yet: a ski run that certainly qualifies as a double black diamond.
The impressive video starts off with Ben going down a steep, bumpy run, before clips of him flying high across bumps, and smoothly swishing side to side down more snowy hills.
“I’m so proud of my son Ben’s progress!!” John wrote in his caption, adding: “First clip is the steepest run in Snowmass!” referring to one of Aspen’s most popular skiing mountains.
The comments section under the post was quickly flooded with encouraging comments from impressed fans, with Ben’s older sister Ella leaving behind a string of celebratory emojis, as others followed suit with: “Wow he’s amazing!!!!!!” and: “Wow! I’m a skier and he’s really skiing amazing! Great form, no fear and fast!!” as well as: “Incredible talent and skiing skills! Way to go Benjamin!!!” plus another one of John’s followers also added: “Very impressive… we have another Tom Cruise on our hands.”
