Johnny Knoxville and Danger Ehren engage in a seemingly innocent “Harm Wrestling” match with rat traps, but in true “Spy vs. Spy” fashion there’s a whole lot more “rat” going on here than just the traps themselves.

So this is the last installment of our Scott Aversano Mural Adventure. It started out simply enough. We wanted an artist named Van Toffler to paint a comely portrait of two dudes bonking each other missionary style on the office wall of the then MTV Films President Scott Aversano (that the dudes just so happened to look like Jeff Tremaine and me was total coincidence).

This is the one jackass ritual I’ve never understood, but I’m not here to judge, I’m just going to write what I know about this business. Apparently during the stage shows Steve-O used to do, he’d invite members of the audience up on stage with the alluring promise of being kicked in the balls. (more…)

Join intrepid vandals Spike Jonze, Johnny Knoxville, JxPx Blackmon, Scott Manning, and Lance Bangs as they barge the Paramount lot and attempt to reclaim the “Van Toffler” mural from former MTV Films executive Scott Aversano’s vacated office. Remember, kids, ignorance is bliss when cutting through large sections of an office building wall with power tools.

So Steve-O is now 80 days sober! He was 72 days when we shot this and I can’t believe how well he’s doing. I decided to film him on my last visit to show everyone that he’s the same old Steve-O only sober. (more…)

Last summer, the Paramount Pictures Group graciously invited the Dickhouse Productions team of Johnny Knoxville and Jeff Tremaine to take up residence on their esteemed lot. What a stupid idea. Soon enough Knoxville was up to his usual tricks and set his sights on Scott Aversano, this producer-type who was in charge of MTV Films at the time. Under the guise of his late-night vandal alter ego “Van Toffler,” Knoxville broke into Aversano’s office and brought in a muralist, Van Toffler, Jr., to redecorate the wall with a likeness of Knoxville and Tremaine aggressively coupling in a Tom of Finland style. Look for further adventures of the late-night Dickhouse crew to post next Friday, June 6th, when they return to the Paramount lot to repossess this prized Toffler piece.

Apparently one can never have enough shocking toys. Here, Johnny Knoxville debuts his latest purchase, an electronic bug zapper, and challenges Loomis Fall to a charged contest of prolonged pain. I don’t know about anyone else here in this happy hell of ours called work, but I’m really starting to develop a physical tic or two with all these nerve-jarring electric pops arcing about the office environment…

One of Trigger’s sponsors is Lost. I’ve never quite understood this company, partly because I don’t think they understand themselves. Since their inception—which, as I just learned from their website, they themselves aren’t even sure of: “Lost was born around ‘91 or ‘93 in San Clemente, California…” They’ve flitted about the action sports world dabbling in every genre, yet never really grabbing a foothold in any single one. I guess maybe they’re most recognized within surfing? (more…)

The reason we were sent to Oklahoma was to cover Mat Hoffman’s Evel Knievel tribute/extra-ganza bonanza. The highlight of which was Trigger Gump’s world record distance jump attempt. Trigger set the record at the same location a year ago, but it had recently been broken on New Year’s eve in Las Vegas by an Australian fellow named Robbie Maddison. He flew 322 feet. (more…)

I typed “Oklahoma” into weather.com and nothing happened. It just sat there spinning. I hit stop, and typed it in again. Same thing. I opened a new browser window, went to weather.com, typed it in again, and it just sat there spinning. I realized I didn’t even know where Oklahoma is, and I wondered if weather.com didn’t know either. (more…)
