Okay, so I’m blatantly tooting my own horn here, but this weekend I completed my open water diver certification process. After sixteen years of dwelling on the surface of Los Angeles, I finally got a firsthand look at the ocean floor just off its coastal doorstep. All things considered—meaning all things that run off a land inhabited by several million shitting people into the ocean—it’s quite the spectacle with towering kelp forests, random fish, shark and ray species, crustacea in ad nauseum, and colorful algae and sea grass. But it’s also somewhat limited in visibility and cold as a funeral home fuck, unlike the world famous marine amusement park situated off the northeastern coast of Australia: the Great Barrier Reef. In the first season of Wildboyz, Chris Pontius and Steve-O took the semi-claustrophobic plunge into this unparalleled reef system to molest the sea life in ways it has never been molested before (aside from jackass the movie). The best thing about this clip, though, is that we actually had a chance to throw some serious budgeted dollars at retaining the original music (unlike the jackass series, as many of you know and we rue). So sit back, stare at this tropical aquarium, and trip the fuck out to our momentary lapse into opulence with the equally unparalleled “Moonage Daydream” by David Bowie.
