John Travolta’s son Benjamin, 14, shares daring new video that gets reaction out of famous dad and sister Ella
John Travolta’s two children are turning into quite capable young adults, with his daughter Ella Bleu Travolta, 24, becoming a more established musician.
However, his youngest, 14-year-old Benjamin, seems to be veering further away from his famous family’s roots in entertainment with his skills, and they’re quite in awe.
Take a look at his daring new video from a trip to Japan that elicited quite the reaction from not only his family members, but fans as well…
“Niseko ski trip,” the teen captioned the clip from a visit to Niseko in Hokkaido, Japan, which got a comment from his famous dad that read: “I’m so proud of you, Ben!” and some praise hands emojis from his older sister.
Other fans responded with comments like: “Ben you are a master!! I love how you embrace an interest and you soar and you master it and never give up,” and: “Ben, you’re phenomenal!! John, thanks for sharing your video with us. Go Ben go!!” as well as: “He is an animal! You go Benji, we LOVE your style!”
Benjamin has established a reputation for himself as quite the daredevil, even capably powering through a Ninja Warrior course, regularly attending a dedicated gym for training sessions and even having a course built in his own family home for practice.

Benjamin, on the other hand, is more private than the rest of his family, owing to his age. John last spoke in detail about his son during an appearance on Kevin Hart’s talk show Hart to Heart back in 2021, detailing the experiences of discussing their mom Kelly Preston’s passing.
