His stunts were quite entertaining:

The Bible says we need to not rely on our own abilities, but continually look to God for His strength. We need to seek His face always in our prayers to Him and in our daily devotions.
"Look to the Lord and His strength; seek His face always."
1 Chronicles 16:11
Tripping and bumping your head in front of a camera can be a good thing. Haughtiness and pride are never.
