Van Damme proves he’s still got his ‘Kickboxer’ moves

OMG JCVD!

It’s a random boogie in a martial arts film that’s inspired numerous gifs and redefined dad-dancing forever…

But Jean-Claude Van Damme proved he’s still got the moves that he displayed so magnificently in 1989’s Kickboxer over a quarter of a century later.

The ‘Muscles from Brussels’ appeared as a guest on Conan, and was invited to reenact the iconic gyrations for a new generation.

Despite his 54 years, Van Damme duly obliged, even adding a few new flourishes to update his snazzy routine.

Sadly there was sign of him doing the splits this time round, but at his age that’s probably wise. We don’t want him doing a mischief before work starts on Kickboxer 2
