The franchise that most of the Western world knows as Jackass—a crew of loveable, Teflon-coated miscreants consisting of Chris Pontius, Bam Margera, Wee Man, Steve-O, and Johnny Knoxville—began years ago when the group decided to document their gleefully destructive antics on camera. What this VBS Special highlights is that the crew behind the Jackass cameras—director Jeff Tremaine, cinematographers Rick Kosick and Dimitry Elyashkevich, and writer Preston Lacy—have also been with the show since its humble, hand-held beginnings, and embraced the new mode of filmmaking and the new crew that came with it. Join VBS as we go behind the scenes on the set of the third Jackass film, Jackass 3D, and see what happens when the time-tested tradition of unhygienic pranksterism and unbridled camaraderie meet the technological wonders of three-dimensional film.
