Verne Troyer falls and hits his head at Miami nightclub after dancing on top of DJ booth

As Mini-Me he once gave Austin Powers quite a thrashing, but Verne Troyer let the bass get the better of him on Saturday night. 

The 2'8" tall actor took a tumble while dancing on the DJ booth of a Miami nightclub and smacked his head on a speaker, according to TMZ

The owner of the club posted the video to Instagram, which shows Verne, 46, losing his balance and tumbling backwards during Cedric Gervais' set at LIV club.

The fall may have looked nasty, but Verne luckily wasn't injured and was soon helped back on his feet where he dusted himself off and carried on dancing. 

Owner Dave Grutman was on hand to lift up the fallen actor - before posting the images captioned: 'When the beat drops I'm there for u.' 

Before the incident the actor, who stars in The Spy Who Sh*gged Me, and Goldmember - as part of the Austin Powers series of films, had been showing off his best dance moves in front of the decks.

Verne looked relaxed in jeans and a t-shirt and his distinctive silhouette. 

He was born with cartilage-hair hypoplasia dwarfism and is one of the shortest men in the world. 

The actor lives with his long-term girlfriend Brittney Powell - a former Playboy Bunny - and her teenage son Tyson. 

The couple took part in Celebrity Wife Swap earlier this year, swapping places with former NFL player Hines Ward. 

He sued TMZ in 2008 after a sex tape was leaked to the website of him and his then girlfriend.
