To celebrate the upcoming release of the very funny looking Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa, JOE takes a look at some of our favourite moments from the Jackass MTV show and films.
We’ve already checked out the crazy career of the film’s star Johnny Knoxville, but here’s a quick reminder of what Knoxville and his sadistic stunt-buddies love to get up to. As if you really needed reminding anyway…
Forget about drinking 14 cups of double espresso when you get out of bed at 7am. This High Five sketch from Jackass 3D back in 2010 is the only way to wake you up in the morning. Watch as Johnny and his giant hand ab.so.lute.ly FLOOR Bam:
The Terrorist Prank from the 2006 film Jackass Number Two remains, to this day, one of the best pranks that the Jackass boys have ever pulled on one of their own. In this case, it’s poor Ehren McGhehey who gets the fright of his life… as well a mouth full of crabs.
“Dude, seriously, was the dick hair necessary!?”

The Jackass jokers get Hollywood in on the act as they kidnap Brad Pitt and turn him into one of their Night Monkeys:
Next time you’re going golfing, just make sure you remember that crucial piece of golf equipment – the air horn. Check out this hilarious clip from Jackass: The Movie (2002)
In the wise words of Party Boy, this bungee clip with Preston and Wee Man is intense. Really intense. Well not really intense. But pretty intense.

And, speaking of bungees, here is Steve-O’s Poo Cocktail Supreme. We’ll just let the clip speak (and smell) for itself…

The indestructible Johnny will be returning to our big screens shortly as he stars in the fourth film of the very popular Jackass series, Bad Grandpa.
This time round, Knoxville stars as 86-year-old Irving Zisman, the dirty aul man made famous from his regular appearances in the television show.
The semi-scripted movie sees Zisman taking his young grandson (Jackson Nicoll) on an inevitably inappropriate road trip from hell and, through the usual Jackass hidden cameras, captures the priceless reactions of the public as the pair destroy weddings, funerals and even infiltrate a kids’ beauty pageant – with Nicoll dressed as an 8 year old stripper.
Here at JOE we can’t wait. Check out the excellent ‘Penguin’ clip below:
Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa is released 25th October and previews are available to view 23rd and 24th October.
