10. You Know That All These Guys Weren't Friends Growing Up
It would be natural to assume that this show was put together by childhood friends and you would be wrong. The concept was developed by Jeff Tremaine, Spike Jonze and Johnny Knoxville, who had only recently moved to Los Angeles.
Some of the guys who would eventually be part of the Jackass crew worked on a skate magazine Tremaine edited called Big Brother. Others, like Preston Lacy, were straight up cast for the series.
Bam Margera, Ryan Dunn and their crew were from Connecticut. They produced their own stunt and prank videos that caught the eye of Tremaine. He brought Bam's crew in using segments from those videos on the Jackass series and content filmed in Connecticut.
