ANTHONY JOSHUA proved that the older saying 'the larger you are, the harder you fall' was true after he struggled to keep his balance while ice-skating.
British boxing's star fighter, 6ft 5in, had to use the safety support when he took his 5-year-old son JJ to Lapland UK along with a few of his friends.

The former heavyweight champion needed the tiny penguin balance aid to prevent him from falling, as do many other rink rookies.
AJ fell as he tried to weave in and out between the parents and children.
He was wearing a pair of bright orange ice skates that he rented at the attraction in Ascot (Berkshire).
He just managed to avoid a KO-style fall as he attempted to climb to safety at the wall.
Later, he posed with Lapland UK staff in front of a Christmas backdrop.
The Watford ring-star shares custody with Nicole Osbourne (a former partner and dance teacher) of JJ.
In September, AJ lost his heavyweight title to Oleksandr Usyk of Ukraine.
The Brit activated a rematch clause, and the return bout looks likely to take place before April 30th.
A win by AJ could open the door to Tyson Fury's long-awaited match, but the Gypsy King will first have to defend his WBC title against fellow Brit Dillion Whyte in a fight expected to take place in spring.
