I'm a Celebrity star and British comedian Stephen K Amos tries his hand at ... trends now

I'm A Celebrity star and self confessed 'non-swimmer' Stephen K Amos stepped out of his comfort zone and tried his hand at surfing on Thursday.

The British comedian, 56, braved the rainy weather and choppy waters as he enjoyed private surfing lessons on the Sunshine Coast.

Dressed in a blue rash shirt and a pair of red board shorts, he practiced his surfing moves on the sand before heading out into the swell.

The 56-year-old was accompanied by a surf instructor who looked on and helped the star catch some waves. 

At one point, Stephen could be seen falling sideways as the surfboard slipped from under his feet, propelling him back into the ocean. 

The funnyman previously referred to himself as a 'non-swimmer' in an interview with the Sydney Morning Herald in 2015.

Amos said at the time that despite often visiting Australia, he won't even dip his toe into the ocean.

'If I'm panicking about swimming I'm not going to add to that the possibility of having to punch a jellyfish on the nose,' he quipped.
