Jackman may need to practice.

Hugh Jackman may be one of the best superhero actors of all time, but in regular life, he's just a fun loving regular guy. Jackman spent almost twenty years playing Wolverine in the X-Men movies, and now that he's retired from saving the world, he's enjoying it quite a bit. As reported by TMZJackman was in New York for Christmas, and he stopped by Madison Square Garden to catch the Knicks and Milwaukee Bucks holiday game. Prior to the match, Jackman made his way down to the tunnels of the arena for some entertainment from the Harlem Globetrotters. 

Jackman was in awe while he watched Harlem Globetrotter star Cheese Chisholm show off his moves. Chisholm tossed the ball over to Jackman as well, and instructed the actor on how to pull off some of his crazy trick moves. Meanwhile, a lucky young fan also joined in on the fun and Hot Shot Swanson, the shortest Globetrotter in history at 4'5, soaked in the moment. Chisholm pulls off one extremely difficult set of moves toward the end, which Jackman attempts to imitate. Although he fails, his charisma is flawless and it would be a delight to see him on the court just for fun.
