That "Hello, I'm Johnny Knoxville" is just beyond iconic
Right? I just rewound it 10 times!
What
I agree lol icons don’t describe these people they are the greatest
Thankful for his and alls science 🧪 and giving a great lesson in Physics
Literally is just the line for anything that’s about to go down. Like order 66 hits and you just hear Hi, I’m Johnny Knoxville and this is order 66. Today we’re gonna see if we can survive Darth Vader. Somehow Palpatine returned: Hi Im Johnny Knoxville and this is dumb asf😂😂
As a fan you think you know how crazy Johnny Knoxville and Jackass Co. can be. But then you hear him say "shoot myself with a revolver" and "I had to buy the cheapest vest they had" and you realize that they're wilder than we can ever imagine them to be.
That and him casually laughing about Pontius trying to stab his mates
@@alexfaulkner1 "he's such a silly boy"
@National Socialism it started out with Big Brother and then Bam and his friends made CKY videos and then they formed together to create the jackass crew
More like dumber lol. Hurting themselves for other people's entertainments like a bunch of dancing monkeys. It's funny, and I enjoy watching it, it's still a bit pathetic that they do it though.
Well also that they were broke and desperate
The fact Knoxville was still standing during the riot control test is crazy.
yea really duno how he managed to stay standing
Conditioning and focus
Cause he was covering his face and balls ;D
He has got the experience
*Riot gear manager seeing Knoxville standing* "you're all fired"
I love how he gives credit to whoever thought of the idea or anyone who helped execute it, shows why his crew and friends are so loyal.
yeah mass props guy, as if those were the founding stones for the future of Humanity
The fact he’s still with us to tell these stories is a true blessing
Absolutely! Just based on the brain damage Jonny sustained he's lucky to be alive.
Some people don’t believe it but I’m a strong believer in dumb luck, and Johnny is just the perfect example of it
ORORORORO!!! I spend half of my day sleeping! ORORORO!!! Then I sometimes get up and tell you that I am a famous content creatorORORORORO!!! Please don't sleep while driving, dear sam
@@AxxLAfriku envy?
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Is butterbean okay? Best line in jackass hands down
Was gone make this comment myself but I shall not after you got the likes lad, best line in Jackass history
Idk man "He fell for the soup!" is great too
@@mluna1271 for sure but it’s the way he said it after being knocked clean out
"Hey Jared, don't hit me with your purse this time." Very close second
@@drewcall2292 We forgot the other snake🤣
"You don't tell nobody. He already knows, that's too many people." That doctor was a superstar.
He was a true hero 🤣🤣
Idk how Dunn kept it together there lol
Judging by his age in that first Jackass movie, I assume that doctor is no longer with us, and if that’s the case, RIP to a real one.
The doctor saying “He already knows that’s too many people.” To Ryan Always gets me 😂 r.i.p Ryan. Knoxville is a legend!
@Joanna same. glad they’re doing a lot of promo for this new jackass movie!
I forgot about that little line until I saw it on this video and almost died laughing lmao
"Is Butterbean okay?" Is one of the funniest lines in history
"Weeman I would never use a card throwing machine on you dude"
On god😂
"Why do I have to be Steve-o?"
"I returned it with a full tank of gas."
"I'm Ryan Dunn and this is Face Surfing"
"He already knows, that's too many people," what a legend 👏
Little did he know that millions of ppl know now 😂
That doc was the best friend he had 😂
that doctor was so adorably caring that it became absolutely hilarious
That killed me too.
“Your girlfriend, your boyfriend, whomever” Wholesome ❤
5:26 "He already knows, that's too many people." One of the best Jackass quotes ever.
the Butt X-ray is still one of the funniest jackass sketches ever, the way the doctor tell him "Dont tell anyone" and it was for a movie everyone was gonna see
I love how casual he is about pontius trying to stab people
Not people, just Ehren.
Lol
The boys get a little quirky at night
Pontius was always my favorite. Nobody can replace party boy.
Goes to show pontious is the bully and douchebag Ehren talks about when he says he gets bullied
The Big Red Rocket is still my favourite. "He almost died and he's dancing" is just the perfect description of Knoxville.
HELP!!! Everybody at my school cyberbullies me because they say me good good GOOD videos are extremely BAD!!! Please help me, dear ekna
@@AxxLAfriku sounds like not only a you problem, but a skill issue as well
Red rocket was 2/10
@@AxxLAfriku cringe
@@AxxLAfriku you should be bullied
Can’t get enough of all these Knoxville interviews he’s been doing lately!
Just promotions for the new movie, sad to know there probably won’t be much more bc it’s the final movie for him. And he talks about how bad his memory is nowadays and I’m sure there’s more going on with his overall health.
"it's gonna hurt, but it's just loud" is actually the most persuasive thing he could've said, he was being honest about the fact it's painful but everything gonna be fine
The audacity of GQ to not do a 4+ hour version.
I dont think Knoxville could remember 4 hours of stunts
@@rain_man3981 Elon musk needs to get that technology going to play memories. Time to save brains!
@@alexbetone Elon isn’t a super genius. In fact isn’t even a friend of the common people.
@@youreokayboah2128 Tell that to the Ukrainians that have internet access because he made sure the whole Ukraine would have access to his Starlink Internet
@@miguelrum7759 Cheap advertising...
Ryan Dunn was such a magnificent maniac. He knew repeatedly doing something was a terrible idea, would talk himself out of it... and then did it anyway. Absolute madman in the best way possible.
Still so gutted over his death RIP to the legend
Dunn was always my favorite along with Knoxville. He made it seem more relatable as he was clearly sketched out but still did it like me and my friends (stupidly) did. I always recognized Bam as being the softest but I don't get why people bitched about him crying when he was locked in with a Cobra. I think I may have had a similar reaction even as a fan of snakes. That's anxiety you physically can't control.
I was hoping to see a comment towards the top about Dunn...It will never be the same without him, he was my favorite and still is...Hope Bam is doing better now
I guess that’s how he ended up drunk driving, rip
Excellent in pushing the limits as a race car driver, too.
I’m very surprise after all the broken bones and concussions Johnny Knoxville has he still remains one of the best stunts man a real legend
If we're being honest, they're technically terrible stuntmen 😂 but legendary nonetheless.
"But it's got a full tank of gas" That still cracks me up to this day haha
I remember his saying too, when the dude asked him what happened he goes “I hit a dog” hahaha
My favorite is Knoxville telling him “that cars gotta be paid for” LMFAO
It's a miracle how he's still alive to this day
And only a little slurry!
Recent concussions
It's a miracle how someone as annoying as you can exist.
@@1Maverick2 hate this account with passion
@@bakedstreetyt it's a bot
"is butterbean ok" is an all time classic line
It was so perfectly done lmao. The EMT trying not to bust up laughing makes it even better
🤣
That doctor saying "He already knows, that's too many people!" cracks me up 🤣
I remember watching Jackass the movie for the absolute 1st time EVER with my pregnant wife back in 2003. She laughed so hard she pissed herself & threw up on herself. We love Jackass. Thank you so much Knoxville & crew. RIP Ryan Dunn.
“I returned it with a full tank of gas” “You returned it demolished.”’ 🤣😂
Chris Pontius seems like the nicest guy ever. So hearing about him trying to stab “Danger” Ehren is pretty funny to me lol
Yeah I had the (apparently mistaken) impression that he was one of the more well-adjusted of the guys.
Most stuntmen are certifiably nuts. This is just one example.
Wel I don’t blame him, ehren is the most annoying member of jackass 😂
@@yourgameisstupid Maybe Ehren is just that annoying.
@@ryanjacobson2508 Yes, psycho, that's certainly a good reason to stab someone.
“The boys are a real handful sometimes.” Classic.
RIP Dunn. There will never be a crew as crazy as Jackass.
He did a life threatening stunt even in the last movie mad respect for the guy for what he had put his body into
Meh. The new movie was not good at all.
@@mattr3250 just say you don’t understand it
@@erikgonzalez5211 well i understand it because i have been a fan for over 15 years but this one is missing something, maybe music, because Jackass 2 and 3 had memorable music that made those movies epic and maybe some key members like Bam, Phil, April, Loomis, Brandon Novak, we can't have Ryan but atleast those people that we grow up with, have them in the last Jackass movie
And i know, before you say they kicked out Bam because he wasn't sober, i know but atleast give him something
@@erikgonzalez5211 how do you not understand a jackass movie? Better question I guess is do you congratulate yourself after you watch it because you believe you’re part of a minority of people who “get it?” Man you’re a dingus.
Wow when the rocket exploded 😳 can’t believe they shot it again after that. the insurance on these productions must be insane
If im correct ive read somewhere that non of the jackass guys can get insurance.
Theres an interview with knoxville about what was the most expensive stunt to insure. It was supposed to be a stunt where Chris Pontius goes as Party boy to one of those fire and brimstone churches with live snakes. When they approached the insurance company about it, they said it was gonna be $2M for that single bit alone. Their budget was only $6M. Needless to say they decided not to do the bit.
Bugger all that shite haha
The what now?
what insurance?
"He already know, that to many people." Bro I'm dying🤣
This guy’s got a better canon of stories then almost else out there
Than*
That's because his involves real canons
It’s not the fall that kills you, it’s the sudden stop at the end
Brilliant
Knoxville returned a demolished rental car while wearing a crash helmet and then tried arguing his way out of it lmao.
best bit ever
Lmao classic
He returned it with a full tank of gas.
5:32 I always thought the radiologist lady looked very nice and her making that reaction is something you probably couldn’t recapture. Absolutely priceless lol
This man is a legend. But what suprises me the most, he's still alive after all this dangerous and crazy stunts. Thanks Johnny and the crew for make our lifes more enjoyable!
Knoxville and the Jackass crew are legends to me. I will never forget the times when i was a child and secretly watched them on mtv at night. R.I.P Ryan Dunn
Jackass forever was an absolute hoot and introduced a new generation to such fun! Love love love
Meh, I thought it was the worst one. None of the stunts were overly clever. Nothing was really “death defying.” I left the theatre asking myself why did the make that?
@@mattr3250 honestly I was pretty disappointed. Watched all the movies when i was younger & grew up watching the show. Jackass 4 was a bunch of sh*t & dic*s. They didn't let bam margera in the movie because he's not sober yet Steve O was off his rockers throughout the entite series/show/wild boyz. NOONE should care its JACKASS. The poopies guy was annoying with pretending to act braindead. It wasn't what i was hyped for
Dudes, these guys are like almost 50 years old, of course they are not going to deliver what they used to. With the rapid change of media consumption, im pretty sure we're not going to witness something similar in this calibre. They've been doing it for more than 20 years, so mad respect to them.
@@tcg9877 then you just dont understand what it was for they are all a bit older now and all got sober bam got kicked off because he cant fix his ways that all the other members fixed and i feel bad for the guy but people have tried to help him
The first two guys that replied are acting like Jackass is supposed to be a cinematic masterpiece 💀 it’s a bunch of guys just messing around and having fun stfu and appreciate what they do for our entertainment
The "is Butterbean okay?" line is one of the best timed jokes ever
The EMT laughing after him asking "Is Butterbean o.k.?" is just the best thing! :D 1:24
"Is Butterbean okay?" just might be the funniest thing to be put on film, hands down.
The jackass franchise will truly be a unique piece of early 2000s history I will forever cherish.
Most definitely the early 2000s were prime years for them Jackass Boys. The influence was insane.
A Living Legend!
“Steve-O forgot the close his mouth. Thank god he did” haha
I love when the stingmore goes off, Johnny has no protection but he's the only one left standing
To be fair, they weren’t protecting their nuts
Johnny is a 'walk it off' kinda guy lol
@nexgenhippy you would think bam would be too because that's a skater thing. Every time you get hurt skating, you jump up and start running.
“It’s gonna hurt really bad, but it’s just loud”. Very poor choice of words 😂😂
When he told the car rental guy "we hit a dog" I almost died laughing. My favorite jackass line ever
I thought he said squirrel.
08:06 “I returned it with a full tank of gas” 😂😂😂
How could you not love "The High Five?" Literally, so funny.
Bam got that one the worst XDDD
My favorite cause Ehren was dumb enough to bring a 'tray of soup' lmfao
What up Ehren?
that's my favorite stunt of them all because it's so juvenile and stupid it comes right back around to funny
I just hope that soup was lukewarm.
the most funny line of all times is "say goodbye to the hippies" and the kid repeating it
I love how when the doctor tells Ryan not to tell his "girlfriend or boyfriend", Ryan's face doesn't budge at all, it's just a deadpan face like "yeah maybe I might have a boyfriend, and I might not."
The doctor telling Ryan Dunn not to tell nobody about the toy car 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So happy I got to grow up in my teenaged years watching CKY, Jackass, and Johnny Knoxville and crew. What a great time the 90s and early 2000s were.
Even outside of the stunts, his comedic timing is incredible. Love this dude
I'm so glad "The Yak" got played in this video, it's too great a clip to leave out
I love this guy. I feel like he’s very down to earth and the jackass crew are genius. I’m glad I lived during the time of Jackass.
I'm glad too. As well as during the time of... Stevie Ray Vaughn BB King Muddy Waters David Bowie Randy Rhoads Neil Peart Cliff Burton Dimebag & Vinnie John Bonham Chris Cornell Chester Bennington Richard Wright (PF) Joey Jordison Prince Betty White Johnny Carson Joan Rivers John Belushi John Candy Chris Farley Gilda Radner Sam Kinison Richard Pryor Gene Wilder And so many more!
"Ehren had annoyed Pontius and Pontius had his knife out and was trying to stab Ehren" ever so casually like it's an everyday occurrence
The fact they didn’t put Golf Course Airhorn on this is a shame.
I love that Johnny is so intelligent and well spoken. What a great leader Also some of this footage made me literally cry I was laughing so hard.. so there's that too.
These guys are literally putting their life on the line for our joy and entertainment, respect.
They do it for the money. Not for our enjoyment.
The “high-five” stunt is one of my all time favs…the flour one worked just TOO perfect 😂. Like a cartoon!
Doesn't matter how many times I watch it ill laugh like it's the first. That's legendary status there.
I have to say, great job on choosing these moments! It’s definitely some of their best, but also shows a variety.
The paramedic's reaction to "is butterbean ok?" makes me laugh everytime
"He already knows. That's too many people." 🤣🤣🤣
This was such a staple in my childhood 😂😂
Thank you for years of entertainment and sacrificing your body for the fans...legend.
He will sacrifice his body more when he competes at wrestlemania 38
"He already knows. That's too many people." is one of, if not my favorite reaction lines in all of Jackass.
"i returned it with a full tank of gas" 😂
"I returned it with a full tank of gas!" Knoxville is the king of pranks
“I think hes hurt” best jackass line ever
The High-Five is one of my favorite bits. If not the first it's in the top 3
“HE FELL FOR THE SOUP!!!” Legendary line.
I love how they think Ehren's "High Five" is the best take in all their clips. Bam's "High Five" is one of the funniest clips in ALL of Jackass history!! That one gets me everytime!😂😂
It's the soup. Who carries a tray of soup on the jackass set
Jackass is a legendary show.
The high five with bam is my Favorite jackass scene ever.
actually if the bull had hit him with a horn at the throat or sth he would be completely dead. i think it’s one of the most underrated stunts of them all concerning real risk 😳🤯
Butterbean rabbit punching is shockingly disturbing. As a fighter he should know how dangerous that is.
What is a rabbit punch?
@@LornaEGL punching someone at the back of the head
@@abidi930i thought that was called a donkey punch
@@ajoneal23that's punching them hard in the back of the thigh, you do it hard enough and they just topple over
"Hello, I'm Johnny Knoxville and this is..." Iconic phrase.
"...returning a punt" is one of my favorites. 11 college football players vs him.
Brown shirt hippie: You wanna step outside? Irving Zisman: We're already outside dum dum....classic 😂😂
one of my all time favorite moments in Jackass is after Weeman punches Johnny in the nuts, Johnny acts like hes scratching his leg with his foot then nails Weeman back. It's just so perfect! lol
Even with the “Beef” it’s cool that Johnny can genuinely talk about Bam stories!
There's no beef. Johnny was trying to get Bam straightened out and on the right life path.
He did the same thing to steveo. Luckily steveo took the tough love and got clean
Johnny tried to get Bam clean but there wasn't enough time.
in bams defense, he took a pill that he was previously prescribed that he found in the bottom or his car and had to get tested the next day and was kicked off for going into “relapse”
@@wildshetentertainment1821there was plenty of time, bam just doesn't want to get clean
The riot control test is one of my favorite stunts and probably one of the craziest things they’ve done on Jackass. Knoxville is a champ for staying on his feet.
"Is Butterbean ok?" is probably my favorite line in all the Jackass series. It always cracks me up lol
My favorite one is “Roller Disco Truck”. That always cracks me up. That, and when Bam got the High Five.
Roller Disco Truck is grossly underrated.
Most of the cast hated the sketch, I listened to the commentary the other day and they say it pretty clearly :D I don't know why, but apparently they found it not funny
Johnny has that inbred endurance. Wouldn't surprise me if he would make it to 100 years old
I don't think you're really saying Johnny Knoxville is a product of inbreeding but okay. You probably really mean to say he is genetically very hardy.
@@CoIoneIPanic wasnt his comment enough for you
@@CoIoneIPanic no, he is literally inbred.
@@CoIoneIPanic he gave an interview on Conan O'Brien (I think) where he discussed being certified inbred
@@margaritakmp is that bad? No judging.
Immediately started dying when knoxville said “ I love boxing and I love knockouts, I’m boxing butterbean🤣 “
I cant believe they stood infront of that pellet shot at the begenning of the vid. They are nuts. And we love em!! Bahaha
I love how he’s talking about Pontias with the knife about to kill a man, and then casually says “yeah the boys can be a handful sometimes” It cracks me up!
I gotta see this Pontius trying to stab ehren thing because that’s just wild. Party boy always seemed the most normal to me so that’s surprising to hear
i know right thats the most ??? part of this video to me lol
He has that psychotic positivity
"It's gonna hurt but it's just loud" lol classic.
"I brought it back with a full tank of gas" lol that kills me.
They don’t make men like Knocksville and the Jackass crew nowadays. These dudes are absolute legends! RIP Ryan 🙏
Rip Ryan Dunn. 💔💔😢😢 I remember the day it came on TV with bam breaking down at the scene of the accident my heart was broken I absolutely adored Ryan he was the best ever I loved the chemistry bam Ryan and Johnny had especially there will never be another Ryan
I love that he can talk about these things so calmly.
This whole interview was goated. Lol Johnny talking about his stunts. Love them boys. Jackass Forever. ♥️
God Bless Knoxville He has put his body in shambles for our entertainment RIP Dunn you will be forever missed by us all 🙏🖤🙏
"Is Butterbean ok?" still gets me crackin' up after all these years! At the time it was the last thing I'd expect Johnny to say!
Thank you for this interview.
I need another hour of this
The Toro Totter is easily one of my favorite stunts. 😂😂😂 Those dudes are insane.
