There was one show of this nature that stood above the others, and one of its cast members just pulled his greatest stunt yet here in the Grand Canyon State.

Who is Steve-O?

Steve-O is a man of extremes. He struggled to get a career off the ground in his youth, and decided to pursue stunt work. He spent a short time at Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Clown College before meeting Johnny Knoxville.

Steve-O's Latest Arizona Stunt

Despite the Jackass crew going their separate ways, and living their lives to the fullest, Steve-O is still out looking for new thrills to conquer.

What did he do? He decided to get a tattoo... at 10,000 feet. He jumped from the plane with a local tattoo artist, adorned with a disco ball helmet and a tattoo gun, and soon the art began. Did it come out perfect? Of course not, but what do you expect from a free fall tattoo?
