Johnny Knoxville and his stunts


Johnny is an amazing stuntman. His stunts look and feel real like few. I mean you can really feel the pain just by watching... I read he also gets hurt a lot and so evidently not that great of a stuntman... but for his craft of delivering believable stunts and I suppose pain. He is at the top.

Agreed. He has to shove a catheter up his wiener every day till he dies. He's in shit show shape for his stunts.

Your reply made me look up this incident.... Auuch, that is messed up. You gotta salute that guy.

He gave an interview on Howard Stern, talked all about it.

Jerry Lewis said that he learned in his career that all the pratfalls he took in movies as a young man(20's and 30's) would come back to haunt him with back pain and arthritis and disintegrating joints in his 40s, 50's, and beyond. He had a painkiller addiction for many years.

One worries how Johnny Knoxville is going to handle the years to come.

But at least he made us laugh doing this to himself.
