JOE Wicks almost knocked himself out while dressed up as the Honey Monster as he experienced a live blunder during his PE With Joe workout.

The 34-year-old fitness star has resumed his live YouTube workouts three days per week – which he began during the first lockdown – while schools remain closed due to the latest restrictions.

And despite becoming a UK sensation for keeping kids (and grown-ups) of all ages active while stuck at home – he’s experienced a few gaffes during the latest videos.

The most recent saw The Body Coach run head-first into his ceiling, tumbling to the floor.

At around 21 minutes into Friday’s video, Joe – dressed in a head-to-toe, furry Honey Monster costume, complete with yellow shoes – started to slip.

He regained his composure and then announced the final exercise would be the “silly billy”, which involves striding and sliding from side to side.

Perhaps struggling to see with the Honey Monster head on, he slid across his floor a few times, before flying straight into the slanted ceiling and falling straight onto his back.

He grabbed his head, shouting something that sounded like “bruise” and got up to resume the rest of the workout – though quickly had to pause, again grabbing his head. 

Joe can then be heard saying: “I’ve cracked it.”

He later wrote on Instagram: "Honey monster #PeWithJoe 😩 I head butted the ceiling and dented the roof. Actually FML 🤦🏻‍♂️"

Fortunately, Joe appears to be unharmed, later joking about the incident on Instagram

Fans were quick to check in on Joe, with one writing: "Doing it in a furry Honey Monster costume - are you mad! 😂😂"

While another commented: “We hope your ok after that bump!”

Of course, Joe has experienced a few other injuries and live slip-ups during his time creating PE With Joe.

Memorably, the pro YouTuber was left red-faced after admitting he farted at the beginning of one of his live sessions – which was heard by over 800,000 people.

And amazingly, despite breaking a bone in his hand, he battled through the injury to provide free workouts during the first lockdown.

Though, of course, he’s also done incredibly well thanks to the uber-popular exercise vids.

He donated the ad revenue from the first series of PE With Joe – a whopping £580,000 – to charity NHS Together.

And The Sun exclusively revealed in early January that Joe made over £9million in just one week, thanks to the launch of his The Body Coach app.
