8 Crazy Jackass Moments To Get You Hyped For Their Return
8. Big Red Rocket
Stunts often go wrong in Jackass. With half-baked ideas along with these guys putting them together things are bound to go wrong. The Big Red Rocket is the perfect example of this.
In theory, it seems a simple stunt and nothing new to Johnny Knoxville by a long shot. This loony toon looking rocket was meant to send him flying to the air and landing straight into the lake below but something went wrong with the rocket and its top blew off. At first, that may seem disappointing until you hear how bad it could have been.
The rocket was built with a number of metal pipes and when it was ignited they came loose and flew all over the place. One narrowly missing Knoxville and another missing a cameraman off to the side.
But with that Jackass spirt Knoxville laughs death in the face and just walks away. Not as planned but just as crazy as any other stunt.
