Johnny Knoxville Reveals 'Jackass Forever' Stunt Left Him With Brain Damage

Pretty sure that crowd had brain damage long beforehand.

Worth it, when the result is a theatrical masterpiece that is Jackass.

Gen X forever baby. If you're gonna go out then go out like a fucking legend.

PS: Johnny Knoxville is gonna be in WWE's Royal Rumble this weekend, for anyone interested. The crowd pop he'll get will be magnificent.

Endless legions of Gen X kids took full advantage of the era's near total lack of parental supervision to think up endless numbers of quasi-suicidal things to do based on nothing more than "I bet this will really impress the rest of the guys".

I'm surprised he only suffered brain damage that recently. Considering all the idiocy he and his crew did before now (and the idiocy of most MTV programming in the last 20-odd years aside from "Beavins And Butt-Head", for that matter), you'd think they started out brain-damaged and it only went downhill from there.

Years ago the kids were Jackassing... heard this noise from the roof and it wasn't snow... it was summer.
The son & friends were riding bikes off the roof onto the lawn. They were standing around haw haw-ing at their friend who'd just broken his ankle doing it. Laughing, why it was just so funny....
stuffed the little moron in the truck took him to emerg and called his Mom.
They were still ROFL when I got home.
