24 hour takeover – hour 16 recap

hour 16: recap

If you’ve managed to make it this deep into the marathon, you’ve probably noticed that we’re getting away with murder on TV like we’ve never done before. Mousetraps licked out of butts, Wee flying-Vs at Terry Richardson’s photo studio, and a pretty risqué making of jackass 2.5. What you might not know is that while this is airing live on MTV it’s also being simultaneously broadcast on the jumbotron in Times Square. Unreal. Closing the hour out, we stumbled into the “midtown” studio to play with our shady propmaster JxPx Blackmon’s “Box of Stuff That Sucks.” No one was all that willing to jump into the predominantly shocking mix here, but Knoxville took the initiative to just start calling out names at random, including that of Jeff Tremaine. To his credit, Jeff manned up for a rat trap to the hand, but then the wheels slowly started to fly off the bit one at a time as Knoxville marked up the wheel with some rather television-unfriendly words (rumor has it we had a few technical difficulty cards fly up here, so enjoy the photo!). The bit finally disintegrated into Wee Man and Mike the Midget swapping cattle prods to the butt with each other.
