This is a real section of building and the stunt was based solely on measurements. If he stood even a little bit off from the mark, he would have almost certainly died. The prop house weighed over two tons.

Comparing Jackass to Buster Keaton is like comparing Justin Bieber to Mozart

[eMuse5]

Not even a HINT of a flinch. All hail Buster!

@etcgl I agree that jackass is funny to watch (sometimes, other times the stunts are just stupid) but Buster did a stunt thats a pure classic that will NEVER die that's how good he is

[chemicallingo]

I always wondered where this gag came from...

[niglova77]

@etcgl Jackass was just the newer generation. It applied more to the people of its age. As Buster did with his generation. Some people just never understand that.

[Schpinki]

@etcgl Isn't it just as bad to say you don't understand the comedy of the current generation as it is for them to say it of yours? Isn't it possible that both styles have merit although very different?

what does this have to do with jackass

[etcgl]

@ashlayblues what is so sad is your comment. To say jackass is even good shows that you would enjoy evena monkey at the zoo throwing its own poop. Watching idiots hit each other and insult strangers has nothing to do with comedy. .

Comedy is an art and there is no art in a idiot hitting another idiot in the balls. There is no thinking in jackass just mindless crap that is dull and boring. Guess if you drink and smoke enough anything is funny.

I can't stop hitting replay.

@etcgl

Unless you are a pseudointelectual, I don't see what's the big deal in hating Jackass.

It may be stupid but still funny.
