TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

This film has been given a blessing by the Special Olympics.

It took seven years to get the film made due to its controversial subject.

The line "When the fuck did we get ice cream?" wasn't scripted and you can see that Johnny Knoxville is trying hard not to laugh after it is said.

Originally set for a US theatrical release in 2004 the film was pushed back due to studio executives' concern over its content.

Edward Barbanell and Johnny Knoxville became very close friends by the end of filming this movie. Edward can be seen in credits and outtakes of some of the Jackass movies.

Popular Dialogues

"David Patrick: We stopped off for ice cream. Winston: When the fuck did we get ice cream?"

"Billy: You scratched my CD! You picked it up in pure daylight and you scratched it!"
