British heart-throb Orlando Bloom is well-known for his love of dangerous sports. But his latest passion is unlikely to result in any serious injuries, because the risks are strictly small-scale.

The chisel-jawed actor was photographed taking a spin on a baby motorcycle on the set of his latest flick, Cameron Crowe's Elizabethtown. And he even showed off his riding skills by pulling a wheelie on the tiny vehicle.

Orlando likes to fill his free time with an assortment of adventure sports, such as skydiving and bungee jumping. Indeed the actor, who admits to being an "adrenaline junkie", has broken nearly every bone in his body at one time or another. And he has also experienced his share of spills at work – while filming The Lord Of The Rings he fell off his horse and broke a rib.
