Jason Statham recreates Commonwealth Games dive on luxury family holiday

Jason Statham showed off his impressive diving skills 35 years on from his Commonwealth Games appearance. The Hollywood star, 57, recreated his dive while holidaying with his family in Positano, Italy.

He showed he still has it with his eye-catching leap from the lavish yacht he and his family were on. The 30ft leap showed Jason's top skills as he showed time hadn't passed him by in the art form.

The moment came 35 years after the Mechanic star represented his country at the Commonwealth Games in New Zealand. The 1990 performance saw Jason place in eighth for England in the 1-metre springboard with a score of 487.26 points.

In his 3-metre springboard and 10-metre platform attempts at the Games, he finished in 11th position.

In his latest dive, Jason was seen with his chiselled body and wearing swim shorts as his fiancee Rosie Huntington-Whiteley shared the jump on his social media along with a number of sweet family shots.

The clan were enjoying their break, with Jason and Rosie joined by their kids, Jack, eight, and Isabella, three. And in her rare look into their family life, Rosie's images saw Jason's perfect form as he leapt from the vessel while his son watched on in amazement.

"Jack’s face watching Jason diving is priceless. Hugs," gushed one user in the comments section of the post. "Omg that diving form," fashion designer Aimee Song also gasped.

But there was also a lot of love from followers for what seemed to be the idyllic family getaway. Designer Elizabeth Sulcer wrote: "Beauty family," with a yellow love heart emoji.

And Kara Alloway penned: "This. Is. Everything. Proof that love family and marriage still thrive." Michelle Keegan was among the famous pals clicking the like button on the post.

Other images from their trip also showed the strong father-and-son bond Jason has with Jack as they peered out at sea. Rosie also posted an adorable photograph Jason and their two kids embracing, while another shot showed her enjoying some downtime of her own.

She was seen relaxing in the crystal clear waters as she floated while wearing a two-piece white bikini. A number of other shots showed the family recharging their batteries on the relaxing trip.

The holiday comes months after Jason had left villagers gobsmacked as he strolled through while filming for his next movie. The A-lister was spotted in a number of locations in Enniskerry, Ireland.

The star, who was sporting a rugged beard and beanie at the time was almost unrecognisable as he visited Poppies cafe in the hotspot. Jason, who was the highest-paid Brit in Hollywood last year, earning £32million, happily posed for a photo with the owners of the cafe, Fiona and Laura.

They later proudly shared the picture on the cafe's Instagram page and included a caption thanking the actor for choosing their village for his latest film.
