nitro circus – mark zupan, interview by jeff tremaine

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.

In this second exclusive behind-the-scenes interview from an on-location set of Nitro Circus, Jeff Tremaine talks shop with the one and only Mark Zupan, cripple extraordinaire and Paralympics gold medalist. Oftentimes a sense of humor is the first thing to go after a crippling tragedy such as Mark’s, but he has long since conquered that and pretty much everything else in the path of his top-of-the-line wheelchair. From competitive rugby to rocket-powered stunts and his upcoming appearance as a snowball on Nitro Circus, Tremaine and Zupan go “ass over tea kettle” through a friendship that was first sparked during the ridiculous meeting of Murderball and jackass in 2005.
