The ‘I’m Johnny Knoxville’ joke format lets people reveal their inner jackass

Johnny Knoxville made his name* as one of the reckless stunt performers of MTV’s Jackass in the early noughties.

*Almost literally, as he’s really named Philip Clapp

He has been back in the public eye with the release of Jackass Forever, which might be why he’s now the subject of a popular Twitter meme.

We’ve picked through the tweets and gathered the best examples for you. No need to read it while hitting yourself in the groin with a 9 iron or anything.

Some are genuinely dangerous, so don’t try them at home.
