Hugh Jackman's happy feet almost got him into trouble.
The big-screen legend admitted Monday he jumped a barrier to get close to the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree in New York City, much to the chagrin of a nearby security guard.
He got off with a warning and didn't become Prisoner 24601.
"I highly recommend getting up really early on Christmas morning and taking a walk to see the Rockefeller Christmas tree," he told fans on Instagram.
"It’s so beautiful and not crowded at all. I did get in trouble for going beyond the barrier but the security guard was nice and let me go with just a warning."
Jackman posted video of himself walking toward the tree as passersby appeared oblivious to his playing the role of a New York City tourist.
Jackman, 55, recently announced he has separated from his wife of 27 years, Deborra-Lee Furness Jackman.
