2001? Did you miss the CKY2K skate tape where they went to Iceland? That was my first and last Jackass vid, NGL.

I already knew plenty of trigger-happy, high-energy, rush-hungry, "epic" shenanigan asshats, and watching those rodeo-clown orphans do the same was pretty redundant, all things considered.

IMHO, it was the viewers/fans that figured they could improve on the method themselves that were the more clear & present danger.

Back then, you knew which white kid spent their childhood in a McDojo (thanks, Daniel-san), which one spent those years fishing/hunting w/ dear old dad/uncle/gramps, which one found proper metal early on, which one was gonna get hooked on glue, which one was a little too into Faces of Death... and which one thought anything could be a "prank".

Yeah, no. Bam's had an ass-whoopin' comin' for yeeears, but I guess he caught up with himself, after all. 🧏🏼‍♂️

(oof, sorry, that was much longer than I thought.😅)
