Co-created and produced by innovative filmmaker Spike Jonze as an offshoot of the anything-goes skateboard videos that gave him his first taste of success, MTV's smash-hit television series JACKASS unites a cast of low-rent daredevils who are ready to capture their unique and often painful brand of adolescent antics on video. JACKASS ringleaders Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Chris Pontius, and Bam Margera goad the rest of their hyper-hormonal cohorts through a variety of ridiculously dangerous and dangerously ridiculous stunts--from blind skateboarding and COOL HAND LUKE-inspired egg-eating contests (vomiting included) to swimming in full portapotties and wheelbarrow-racing down very steep hills--for a postmodern spin on Grand Guignol spectacle.
