Iain Armitage<\/strong> is a young man of many talents!<\/p>\n The Young Sheldon alum, 17, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a fun video of himself flying on the trapeze. The actor, who played the role of child prodigy Sheldon Cooper for seven seasons on the hit CBS series, can be seen jumping from an elevated pedestal, letting go, and flipping over in the air before grabbing hold of his partner.<\/p>\n Several people in the facility can be heard clapping and cheering on Armitage as he falls to the protective netting below.<\/p>\n “I would happily do this all day, every day- thank you to my friend at\u00a0@lasvegascircuscenter<\/a>\u00a0!” the young actor captioned the video.<\/p>\n \ud83c\udfac\u00a0<\/strong>SIGN UP for Parade\u2019s Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0\ud83c\udfac\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Living his post-Sheldon life has been exciting for Armitage, who has used the time to tackle new hobbies and pursuits. In addition to the trapeze, he enjoys heading up into the air in another way.<\/p>\n \u201cI just got my pilot\u2019s license, or my student pilot\u2019s license,\u201d he told\u00a0PEOPLE<\/a>\u00a0last year. \u201cI hopefully will get my private [pilot \u2019s license] when I\u2019m 17. And I\u2019ve been having a bunch of fun flying while I\u2019m here in L.A.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite his new pursuits, Armitage made it clear that all those things don’t mean he won\u2019t be back on TV screens soon.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m definitely doing auditions and stuff,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n Still, he has shared that he misses his former cast and crewmates. The Warner Bros Studio Tour Department even sent him a package that was filled with handwritten notes and artwork last month.<\/p>\n Back in June,\u00a0it was announced that Armitage will head to the big screen opposite\u00a0Martin Freeman<\/strong>\u00a0in\u00a0The Adam Trials, a\u00a0psychological thriller\u00a0with a\u00a0sci-fi\u00a0twist, according to\u00a0Deadline<\/a>. Directed by\u00a0Ben Ketai<\/strong>, the film will tell the story of two parents who will do anything to save the\u00a0life\u00a0of their terminally ill son, even if it means employing experimental nanotechnology that starts to show signs of\u00a0success\u00a0but at a dark cost, the piece continued.<\/p>\n \u201cThis movie has been a dream of mine for quite some time now, as has the opportunity to work with Martin again,\u201d Ketai, who worked with him on the Crackle series\u00a0StartUp, told Deadline. \u201cNow with Iain\u2019s talent in the mix, I am counting the seconds until we start rolling.\u201d<\/p>\n Related: ‘Young Sheldon’ Star Iain Armitage Turns 17 and Looks All Grown Up<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n This story was originally reported by Parade<\/a> on Sep 10, 2025, where it first appeared in the News<\/a> section.
