Big man Shaquille O’Neal loves to have fun and do crazy things together with his stepson Myles. Around 24 days ago, the Diesel appeared in social media star Bobbi Althoff’s The Really Good Podcast, stating he is terrified of skydiving and scuba-diving. Days after his dad revealed his fears to the public, Myles did not miss the opportunity to troll Shaq. He posted a comical picture of the big man on his Instagram story at the $98.6 million skydiving franchise, iFly.

Despite being known as the ‘Superman,’ big man Shaq is scared of both scuba-diving and skydiving. The four-time NBA champion revealed how his stature and weight restricted him from such activities. In an effort to get Althoff 100 million viewers on her podcast episode, Shaq suggested he would be ready to skydive with her. However, seemed like Bobbi Althoff wasn’t quite a fan of this idea.
Shaquille O’Neal and son Myles go out for a skydiving adventure together
Just days after Shaquille O’Neal publicly stated his fear of diving, he is out on a new adventure with his son Myles to conquer this fear. Being a doting dad, Shaq is always up for new adventures with his children. The father-son duo had a fun time at the $98.6 million iFly indoor skydiving center.
Guess Myles remembers his father’s public statement about his skydiving fears. In an attempt to troll his dad, Myles posted a comical photo of the big man, all prepped up to try his hands at skydiving. Perhaps one could see how afraid the ‘Man of Steel’ looked when faced with the option of skydiving inside the flying chamber! Here is a sneak peek at the picture uploaded by Myles on his Instagram story.

Shaq might be scared of scuba diving. However, he is unapologetic about throwing people off his boat for fun. While vacationing in Greece, Myles recorded a rare clip of the Diesel kicking a man off his speed boat. Shaq was trying to channel his inner Leonidas, very well living his ‘This is Sparta’ moment with this act.
Shaquille O’Neal’s last thing off his bucket list is to scale Mount Kilimanjaro
Shaquille O’Neal has always been ambitious since his hay days in the NBA. Even though it’s been 12 years since he retired, the big man still aspires to tick several things off his bucket list. Aside from being an established business tycoon and a DJ after retirement, Shaq now aspires to try his hands in mountaineering.
In a report from World on Focus, Shaq shared that climbing Mount Kilimanjaro would be the last thing to tick off his bucket list. Shaq has always loved adventure. It would indeed be interesting to see the big man achieve the incredible feat of scaling a mountain peak.
