'I believe I can fly': Justin Theroux posts hilarious video of himself crash landing after ski jump

Jennifer Aniston may be the queen of comedies, but it seems her husband Justin Theroux knows how to garner a few laughs too.

The Leftovers star, 45, took to Instagram to share a rather amusing video of himself falling over after attempting a ski jump.

The clip, which was in slow motion for dramatic effect, was set to the sounds of R. Kelly's track I Believe I Can Fly.

It was all going so well: Justin Theroux posted a clip of him attempting a ski jump set to the sounds of R. Kelly's track I Believe I Can Fly on Saturday 

Oh dear: The actor couldn't manage the landing, falling to his bottom

Wipe out! The star crashed in spectacular fashion 

He is seen launching off the jump in impressive fashion and flying through the air with the greatest of ease. 

But he comes unstuck as soon as he hits the ground, falling to his bottom and later wiping out.  

He captioned the snap: 'Me: I got this. 2016: JK'

Justin didn't reveal where exactly he is holidaying over the festive season, or if his wife was witness to his aerial spectacle.

He looks like a pro! He reached an impressive height as he soared through the air 

Earlier this year, the former Friends star revealed she was looking forward to spending Christmas with Justin because the Leftovers actor has been working away for much of 2016.

She told Entertainment Tonight: 'He is the life of the party.

'People are very bummed when he's not there, which makes me feel great.'

'He's been gone for so much of the year, it'll be nice to actually [be together]. We're excited just to have another holiday.'

The couple began dating in May 2011, got engaged just over a year later and tied the knot at their Bel-Air estate in August 2015.
