johnny knoxville’s first visit to the office – the lost footage

warning
These webclips feature stunts performed either by professionals or under the supervision of professionals. MTV and the producers must insist that no one attempt any activity performed on the site.

Much like the world we live in today, our office kicked off with a “big bang.” Way back in the primordial age of jackassworld, which I guess was all of seven months ago now, a few of us gathered in the relatively barren space to discuss all the great and wonderful crap we hoped to smear on the Internet. Meanwhile, Johnny Knoxville had a theory of his own on how to launch the site involving a surprise fireworks demonstration (with a sling-shot and BB aftermath). Unfortunately—I can say that now, perhaps not then—his rockets went awry and we all went unscathed (aside from Dave Carnie, who did catch a BB in the leg). This event was declared unfit for launch purposes, but the “big bang” concept wasn’t lost upon us and it soon morphed into, what else, an explosive poop. And that is the highly abbreviated story of how jackassworld evolved from the ethereal gas into a corporeal turd. Don’t let those Genesis-happy Christians tell you differently.
