Iron Mike wasn't very light on his feet when he took his first spin on a hoverboard shortly after Christmas.

The former heavyweight champ, who was unanimously down for the count after riding the popular motorized contraption, sat down with Andy Nesbitt of @TheBuzzer to reveal why he hopped on the hoverboard in the first place ... and then detail the aftermath.

"I'm trying to show my little kid that daddy can [ride a hoverboard] too," Tyson said.

But as Tyson sees the footage again, all he can say is "Oh god."

And for good reason. Remember this?

Tyson went to the hospital three days later and revealed he wasn't the only person who had a hoverboard mishap.

"When I went down to the hospital, there were other people down there that had hurt themselves from hoverboards, too," Tyson said.
