Robert De Niro’s daughter Drena shares video of actor leaping off a yacht for 81st birthday: ‘He’s so crazy’
He’s a daredevil.
Robert De Niro’s oldest daughter, Drena De Niro, shared a video of her father leaping off a yacht in honor of his 81st birthday.
“Happy 81st Bday to my Dad and #1 ride or die,” she captioned the Instagram post. “Love you with all my ♥️♥️♥️ #BobbyD forever ✨👑.”
In the video, the shirtless “Goodfellas” actor jumped off a yacht into the ocean, wearing only a pair of red-and-blue striped Vilebrequin swim shorts.
Though Robert dived head first, he ended up hitting the water on his back.
“He’s so crazy. Oh my God. Oh my God. Are you alright?” Drena, 56, asked her father once he resurfaced in the water.
The dad of seven replied, “I’m OK.”
Drena then told Robert he was “sick” and “crazy” for the epic leap.
The actress asked a yacht employee how many feet her father jumped from, to which they responded, “36 feet.”
Drena’s comments section was flooded with birthday wishes for the legendary actor.
“HBD to 1 of 1, New York’s finest.🏛️🥂,” wrote one user.
“Happy Birthday To The Best Actor In The World❤️,” added another.
“A Happy Birthday to the best actor of all Time, for his 81st Birthday. And many more. From a very big fan ❤️❤️❤️❤️,” said as third person.
“Happy birthday to the OG!!!!! May we all look this good at this age! Godless,” said a fourth fan.
In the Instagram carousel, Drena, whom Robert adopted during his marriage to Diahnne Abbott, shared a throwback photo of her late son, Leandro, and the “Irishman” star.
In July 2023, Drena announced that her son, whom she shared with graffiti artist Carlos Rodriguez, had died at age 19.
Leandro passed away from a “toxic” combination of illicit drugs, the New York City Medical Examiner told Page Six last August.
Following the news of his grandson’s death, Robert released a statement, saying he was “deeply distressed.”
