11!! Original cast
12
13[[folder:Johnny Knoxville]]
14!!! Real name: Philip John Clapp
15[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/knox.jpg]]
16[[caption-width-right:350:''"Hi, I'm Creator/JohnnyKnoxville. Welcome to Jackass!"'']]
17->"''Why couldn't I get a broken arm, or leg? Or collarbone? But no, I got blood shootin' out my peepee. I injured the only body part that means anything to me."''
18
19One of the co-creators of Jackass. Johnny Knoxville was an aspiring actor who was a writer for Big Brother magazine. For one of the magazine's videos, he decided to test various self-defense equipment on himself, which would go on to build the foundation for ''Jackass.''\
20Outside of ''Jackass'', he's had the most successful career of the group as an actor.
21----
22* AssShove: Got a prostate exam on ''{{Series/Wildboyz}}'' which was later seen in ''2.5''.
23* CoolShades: It's either these or thick-framed eyeglasses.
24* DirtyOldMan: As Irving Zisman.
25* EstablishingCharacterMoment: His first stunt ever shot on video, the "Self Defense Test," in which he tested red pepper spray, a stun gun, a taser gun, and a bulletproof vest out on himself.
26* {{Fanboy}}: Of 70s PunkRock, specifically Music/TheRamones, and Outlaw Country, such as Music/WillieNelson and Music/JohnnyCash.
27* AFatherToHisMen: A behind-the-scenes example. While he has subjected the cast to many pranks on set, he does genuinely care about their well-being. The most well-known example of this being in 2008, when he staged an intervention for Steve-O after the latter's out-of-control drug addiction resulted in him threatening to commit suicide. Knoxville and the crew arrived at Steve-O's home, surrounded him and told him in no uncertain terms that if he doesn't voluntarily go to the psychiatric ward for an evaluation, he would have the boys restrain him and take him there by force. [[note]]Fortunately for Knoxville, Steve-O, who was never the aggressive type, willingly complied[[/note]] It's in part because of this action that Steve-O is sober to this day.
28* GroinAttack: He was the victim of two particular examples of this:
29** The Cup Test in the original series.
30** In 2008, he performed a stunt for an Evel Knievel tribute show in which he did a backflip on a motorcycle. However, he crashed and the bike landed on his groin. As a result, he tore his urethra and had to wear a catheter for three years.
31* IconicOutfit: His trademark leather jacket, Chuck Taylors, and CoolShades.
32** Around ''3D'', he started wearing a lot of flannels.
33* TheKlutz: Notably extremely uncoordinated, he can barely stand up on a skateboard and almost immediately broke his ankle attempting to jump the L.A. River on rollerskates, putting him in a cast for most of season one.
34* TheLeader: Of the entire cast.
35* MeaningfulName: Counts as a StealthPun -- Knoxville is notoriously MadeOfIron. Fort Knox is famously the unbreakable fort housing the US strategic gold reserve.
36** Also, he was born in Knoxville, Tennesee.
37* PrematurelyGreyHaired: His hair started going grey in his late 20's, but he had been dyeing his hair until 2020.
38[[/folder]]
39
40[[folder:Bam Margera]]
41!!!Real name: Brandon Cole Margera
42[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/6oqdfsw.jpg]]
43[[caption-width-right:350:''"Whose dick do I gotta suck to get some explosions around here?!"'']]
44->"''I'd rather rip my dick off and throw it in the river than go through that again."''
45
46A professional skateboarder from West Chester, Pennsylvania, Bam also made videos of him and his friends (dubbed the "CKY Crew") doing various stunts and pranks. He and the CKY Crew starred in the spin-off, ''Series/VivaLaBam''.\
47Outside of ''Jackass'', Bam has hosted a weekly radio show, ran a bar called "The Note," directed several independent films, and has been involved in several bands.\
48He was fired from the franchise in early 2021 during the filming of ''Jackass Forever'' for failing to maintain sobriety.
49----
50* AbusiveOffspring: PlayedForLaughs. He frequently terrorizes his parents with pranks. The most infamous is him beating up his dad throughout the day.
51-->"I'm Bam Margera, and I feel like kicking my dad's ass all day today."
52* AdaptedOut: He was completely absent from the video game due to being under contract with Activision for the VideoGame/TonyHawksProSkater series.
53* AssShove: He stuck anal beads up his ass and attached them to a kite, successfully flying a kite out of his ass.
54* TheBabyOfTheBunch: Of a sort. Prior to the addition of Poopies, Zach Holmes, Jasper, Rachel Wolfson, and Eric Manaka, Bam was the youngest member of the principal cast. [[note]]He was born in 1979. For comparison, Preston and Dave were both born in 1969, Knoxville in 1971, Wee Man in 1973, Steve-O and Pontius both in 1974, Ehren in 1976, and Dunn in 1977.[[/note]]
55* DemotedToExtra: Due to being fired in early 2021, he only appeared in one scene in ''Forever'' (The Marching Band Treadmill).
56* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The "Shopping Carts" segment, in which him, Brandon [=DiCamillo=], and Raab Himself hop inside shopping carts and are shoved into curbs and bushes, while {{Music/CKY}}'s "96 Quite Bitter Beings" plays.
57* {{Fanboy}}: Of several rock and metal bands, including {{Music/HIM}}, Music/CradleOfFilth, {{Music/Clutch}}, {{Music/Turbonegro}}, Music/TheBloodhoundGang, Music/ChildrenOfBodom, The 69 Eyes, and of course {{Music/CKY}}.
58* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Strictly speaking within the context of ''Jackass''. As much as he liked to torment his parents, Bam does genuinely love them, and has even had several PetTheDog moments, particularly in ''Series/VivaLaBam'':
59** He revealed that he'd bought Phil a new vehicle after mangling his dad's beloved van.
60** He managed to get Don Vito (infamous for regularly wrecking his cars) inducted as a member of the Metal Mulisha.
61** He once got Billy Idol (April's idol) to visit her as a birthday gift.
62** For his parents' anniversary, Bam got them a seat for dinner in Monaco, gave them a bottle of wine that he had drove from Munich to Dracula's Castle in Romania — through a ''snowstorm in the Swiss Alps'', no less — to get, and even handcuffed Don Vito (who ruined the previously planned dinner in Venice) to a pier to stop him from ruining it again.
63*** On that note, even when he handcuffed Don Vito, he made sure he was provided dinner and beer to keep him occupied.
64** He did the whole "Don't Feed Phil!" shtick in order to stop Phil from over eating. April suspected was out of fear of Phil's health (and also because he fears he'll "look like him").
65** He made a bet with his mom that if she went a whole day without complaining, he'd subject himself to a fancy dinner with her. Even though he made it challenging by doubling down on his usual antics and reset the time whenever she complained, Bam made it so that April still won the bet in the end (by changing the clocks so she flipped out after already winning the bet).
66* TheLeader: Of the {{Music/CKY}} Crew.
67* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: He's never referred to by his real name, not even by his parents.
68* TheQuincyPunk: He has a love of PunkRock and HeavyMetal bands, is rebellious to his parents and other authority figures, has many tattoos, and is a skateboarder.
69* ThoseTwoGuys: On Jackass, he tends to be this with Dunn, while in the CKY videos, he's usually this with [=DiCo=].
70** Starting around after ''Number Two'', he tended to be this with Brandon Novak.
71* TearsOfFear: Cries twice in ''Number Two'', including when he is trapped in the trailer with a king cobra, then later when he is shot with a riot control mine.
72* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: ''Series/VivaLaBam'' revealed he has a fear of snakes, which is then exploited in each movie.
73** In ''Number Two'', he is trapped in a trailer with a king cobra, which scares him to the point of tears.
74** In ''3D'', he is manipulated into falling into a pit of rubber snakes via a false floor. Bam is absolutely terrified, then the gang start throwing real snakes into the pit.
75--->"That was fucking terrifying, I can't think of anything more terrifying than that."
76[[/folder]]
77
78[[folder:Chris Pontius]]
79[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/llxmypy.jpg]]
80[[caption-width-right:350:''"I feel like partying right now!"'']]
81->"''A lot of doctors, dentists, I don't really consider them real doctors. They think they're God, you know. Not me. [beat] Satan."''
82
83Chris Pontius was a writer for Big Brother magazine at the time of the creation of ''Jackass''. He is known for his various costumes and personas, as well as his penchant for using his penis in various stunts. He is also a co-host of ''{{Series/Wildboyz}}'', alongside Steve-O.
84----
85* AmbiguouslyGay: All over the place with the cast in general but Pontius is a cut above the rest of them, ESPECIALLY when he's Party Boy.
86--> "Does Party Boy prefer men or women? He doesn't care, if the bear's hungry he'll eat."
87* ChippendalesDancers: As Party Boy.
88* {{Crossdresser}}: Many of his costumes involve him wearing women's clothing, his Bunny the Lifeguard persona being the most notable example.
89* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The "Trunk" prank, in which he is bound and gagged, wearing only a thong, and bursts out of Knoxville's trunk as he's talking to unsuspecting victims.
90* GagPenis: Many stunts he's involved in often involve his penis. And yes, GroinAttack does come into play.
91** In the first movie, he tied a bottle rocket to his penis and lit it.
92** In the second movie, his penis is disguised as a mouse and is placed in a snake cage.
93** In the third movie, his penis is tied to an RC helicopter.
94*** Later, his penis is painted like a baseball bat and a ping pong ball is thrown at it.
95** In the fourth movie's opening title sequence, his penis is painted like {{Franchise/Godzilla}} and it destroys the streets of UsefulNotes/NewYork, before being bitten by a snapping turtle.
96*** Later, his penis is squashed between planes of glass.
97* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Steve-O.
98* IAteWhat: He infamously drank horse semen in ''Number Two''.
99-->"I'm ashamed of myself. I really am. I'm completely ashamed of myself."
100** Later, in ''Forever'', he drinks pig semen.
101-->"I think I prefer the pig."
102* IconicOutfit: Any of his alter-egos, but his Party Boy get-up especially fits the bill.
103* MellowFellow: He rarely gets riled up.
104* SexierAlterEgo: Especially as Party Boy and Bunny the Lifeguard.
105* ThoseTwoGuys: He's frequently paired with Steve-O.
106[[/folder]]
107
108[[folder:Ryan Dunn]]
109[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ane0ite.jpg]]
110[[caption-width-right:350:''"I'm Ryan Dunn, and I'm surrounded by morons."'']]
111->"''I gotta be horrible at everything...or else it just wouldn't be me."''
112
113Originally hailing from Medina, Ohio, Ryan Dunn moved to West Chester, Pennsylvania and became Bam Margera's closest friend. Known for his sarcastic demeanor and thick beard.\
114Outside of Jackass, he was also the host of the short-lived series, ''Homewrecker'' and co-hosted the G4 show, ''Proving Ground'' prior to his death. He also contributed vocals to the rock supergroup, The Alter Boys.\
115Tragically, he died in a car accident on June 20, 2011 at the age of 34.
116----
117* AssShove: He infamously shoved a toy car up his butt in the first movie.
118* BewareTheNiceOnes: While those who knew Dunn regarded him as a nice guy despite his snarky demeanor, he certainly had his limits. A well-known example of this was in 2003 when Steve-O pissed on him in the van while they were touring in Iceland, which Dunn retaliated by pouring a can of piss on him. Then when Steve-O vomited on him, he punched him in the face, causing Steve-O to bleed around his eye.
119-->'''Steve-O''' (''laughing''): I deserved it.
120-->(''The group breaks into laughter.'')
121-->'''Bam Margera''' (''points to eye''): "''Eye'' deserved it."
122* DeadpanSnarker: As the sadsack of the cast, he would frequently drop snarky one-liners.
123-->'''Dunn:''' I was scared of burning my own friend.\
124'''April:''' Why would you burn him in the first place, Dunn?\
125'''Dunn:''' [[RuleOfFunny 'Cause it was funny]].
126* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The "Poo Dive" segment, where he dons floaties, flippers, and a snorkel and dives into a sewage plant nearby the Margera household.
127* HatesBaths: Dunn was notable for his lack of hygiene and often went days without showering or bathing. As a result, several stunts were made specifically to get him clean.
128-->"I didn't shower after the poo dive for at least a week, I know that much, and it could've been much longer. I can't remember the last time I showered."
129** During the "Terror Taxi" stunt in ''Number Two'', as he shaved off some of his pubic hair to help make Ehren's beard, he noted that he skipped showering for several weeks to make it a little more gross.
130* HeterosexualLifePartners: He was very much this to Bam, to the point where his death devastated poor Bam.
131* IconicOutfit: A white t-shirt, blue jeans, and CoolShades.
132* TheLancer: To Bam.
133* ManlyFacialHair: He grew out his beard as the franchise progressed. The beard became so synonymous with him that after his death, the iconic "skull and crutches" logo was given his beard in tribute.
134* NoseShove: Bam once used a power drill by shoving the plug into Dunn's nostrils (no, we are not making that up), earning the latter the nickname of "Plugs."
135* SurroundedByIdiots: The image quote says it all.
136* ThoseTwoGuys: Was frequently paired with his close friend, Bam.

139[[folder:Steve-O]]
140!!!Real name: Stephen Gilchrist Glover
141[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dqdlcih.jpg]]
142[[caption-width-right:350:''"Yeah, dude!"'']]
143->"''I'm Steve-O, oh, fuck!'' [laughs nervously] ''Oh, why do I have to be Steve-O?"''
144
145A former clown and aspiring skateboarder, Steve-O had been submitting content to Big Brother magazine. Not only did this pay off, but he was also recruited to join ''Jackass.''\
146Outside of ''Jackass'', Steve-O is a successful [=YouTuber=], podcaster, actor, and stand-up comedian, and owns a line of hot sauces.
147----
148* AssShove: He has a tendency to stick objects up his ass.
149** He shoved a bottle rocket up his anus in the first movie.
150** He chugged beer through his rectum in the "Butt Chug" in Number Two.
151** Notably defied in the first movie when he refused to shove a toy car up his ass (because his father told him it would greatly disappoint him), prompting Ryan Dunn to do it in his place.
152** The label for his first hot sauce, ''Steve-O's Hot Sauce for Your Butthole'', depicts a cartoon caricature of Steve-O with a stick of dynamite in his ass.
153* AttentionWhore: He admits in a video he did for GQ that he's one. Even during his lowest point, he always had a camera in front of him. This has not stopped in the slightest after getting sober.
154* EstablishingCharacterMoment: One of the first stunts he ever did for Jackass was the infamous goldfish stunt, where he swallowed a goldfish and puked it into a fishbowl.
155* {{Fanboy}}: Of 80s GlamMetal, specifically Music/MotleyCrue.
156* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Chris Pontius.
157* IHatePastMe: Since going sober, he has admitted that he despises how much of an asshole he was while he was on drugs.
158-->"I mean, sure, I was a drug addict, but that's no excuse for what an angry douche I was [...] with my neighbors [...] and just treating people badly in general."
159* IconicOutfit: In the original series and the first movie, the Cheetah, a pair of cheetah-print, Brazilian cut bikini briefs. He stopped wearing it after the first movie because he was wearing old man makeup for the "Son of Jackass" skit, and the prosthetics remover caused the Cheetah to expand and blow out, rendering it unwearable.
160* {{Irony}}: In ''Forever'', he participated in "The Quiet Game," where he's dressed as a mime and must remain quiet as a skateboard drops on his legs guillotine-style. Considering that he is a former clown who graduated from clown college, you'd think he would easily succeed. He immediately fails and screams when the skateboard drops on his legs.
161-->"I forgot to be fucking quiet, dude."
162* KnuckleTattoos: He once had "Shit" and "Fuck" tattooed to his knuckles. They have since been removed.
163* NonIronicClown: Prior to Jackass, he worked as a clown and was working as one in a Florida flea market when he got hired for the show. He is also a graduate of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Clown College, which was statistically harder to get into than ''Harvard.''
164* PainfulBodyWaxing: He got a full body wax in the TV series. He also gets just his eyebrows waxed off in ''4.5''.
165* ProneToVomiting: If [[Literature/GuinnessWorldRecords Guinness]] held a record for the number of times someone threw up on camera, Steve-O would take the prize ''in spades.'' With each new entry, Knoxville and Tremaine kick things up a notch to get him to do increasingly more disgusting stunts.
166** In the first film, he proceeds to snort some wasabi, which was ''so painful'' that he puked all over the plate. ...Then dipped some sushi in the vomit and ate it, with more predictable results.
167** ''Jackass Number Two'' features the infamous "Butt Chug", where Steve-O - with the power of rectal suction - chugs beer in the opposite direction. In the extended cut, after relieving it in a glass, he drinks it. There is also the delightfully straight-forward "Fart Mask", where Steve-O puts on a [[BuffySpeak space-age glass helmet-like thing]] hooked up to a hose and funnel, which is applied to...Preston's ass. And works exactly as described. Only, Preston decides to not ''just'' fart in it, but drop a full turd in it. [[RunningGag Ends with predictable results.]]
168*** A deleted scene features a dozer dumping fresh fertilizer on him. Guess how that ends.
169** ''Jackass 2.5'' features Shridhar Chillal, the man with the longest fingernails in the world, pour beer down his nails and straight into Steve-O's mouth. [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere His puking causes virtually everyone else to start running away.]]
170** ''Jackass 3D'': WARNING: Pure, undiluted BrainBleach ahead: [[spoiler:In the "Sweatsuit Cocktail", Preston puts on a sauna suit while exercising on an elliptical as a number of space heaters blast hot air his way, all the while a funnel system collects his sweat into a cup. Which Steve-O proceeds to drink. [[OverlyLongGag With, you guessed it, predictable results.]] Notably, this stunt was ''so'' gross that it caused Lance Bangs, already known for his weak stomach, to essentially start convulsing attempting to film it.]]
171** ''Jackass Forever'': Surprisingly, shockingly averted! Steve-O only pukes once, and only during the ending sequence, the "Vomitron." But in all fairness, ''everyone'' who was strapped to it threw up since [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin that's exactly what it's supposed to do.]]
172** ''Series/{{Wildboys}}'': In its four-season, 32-episode run, Steve-O puked a grand total of...32 times. That's literally OnceAnEpisode. You ''could'' make a drinking game out of it, but it'd be a really bad idea.
173* RecoveredAddict: After a history of drug abuse, Steve-O became sober in 2008 and remains sober to this day.
174* RunningGag: Paired with OnceAnEpisode. No matter the series or film, there '''will''' be ''at least'' one segment dedicated to getting Steve-O to puke. The sound of Steve-O throwing up is second only to the intro guitar riff as ''Jackass's'' SignatureSoundEffect.
175* TeenyWeenie: By his own admission. He even has a tattoo that reads "I have a small weiner."[[note]] It took him three days to realize that "weiner" is spelled incorrectly[[/note]]
176* ThoseTwoGuys: He's frequently paired with Chris Pontius. The two even hosted ''{{Series/Wildboyz}}'' together.
177* VocalEvolution: Likely due to a combination of age and his past drug use, Steve-O's voice has gotten raspier over the years. It was actually revealed he mostly uses his throat muscles to talk instead of his vocal cords.
178* VomitIndiscretionShot: Steve-O himself claims that he has vomited more times in TV and film than any human in history.
179* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: He's terrified of snapping turtles, specifically alligator snapping turtles. Despite letting virtually every other animal known to man allow him to chomp or sting his ass, he drew the line at snapping turtles for the longest time. It wasn't until ''Jackass 2.5'' that he ''finally'' allowed an alligator snapper to bite his butt - albeit, a ''very'' young one. Despite that, it ''still'' ended up being way worse than anyone expected.
180-->'''Steve-O:''' There's a reason why I turned that down for so many years!''
181* YouNeedABreathMint: As a result of drug use and poor dental care (mainly not flossing), Steve-O at one point had perpetual bad breath. He recalled one time where he got into a van with the other ''Jackass'' guys, and Wee Man complained about Steve-O's breath, to which Knoxville responded:
182-->"Saying Steve-O has bad breath is like saying Wee Man is short."
183[[/folder]]

185[[folder:Dave England]]
186[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/6xi7dzj_6.jpg]]
187[[caption-width-right:350:''"My ass hurts so fucking bad!"'']]
188->"''I consider myself a professional shitter, which I think there's very few of. I'm sure there's some others out there, but can you name one? Probably not."''
189
190A former professional snowboarder, Dave England was the editor for ''Blunt'' Magazine (''Big Brother'''s snowboarding-centered sister magazine). He is known for his over the top reactions to injuries and his ability to defecate on command.
191----
192* ComicalOverreacting: From ''Number Two'' onward.
193* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The "Department Store Toilet" segment, in which he defecates in a department store's display toilet. While this is well after the TV series had ended, it establishes him as the resident "poo guy" on ''Jackass''.
194* GroinAttack: He lost one testicle due to a snowboarding accident.
195* PottyFailure: He can actually invoke this on command, leading to him calling himself "the world's first professional shitter."
196** A more traditional example occurred in the first movie, when Dave shat his pants during the "Department Store Toilet" prank. He succeeds in the second attempt, though.
197* SplitPersonality: "Darf," which emerges when Dave gets drunk. Darf is such a {{Jerkass}} that no one likes him, not even Dave himself.
198* ThoseTwoGuys: He's frequently paired with Danger Ehren.
199* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Ever since "Beehive Tetherball", he's developed a crippling phobia of bees. Part of the problem is that he can't calm himself down. After a single bee stings him, he starts freaking out and as a result of his heightened body heat, he becomes a literal bee magnet.
200[[/folder]]
201
202[[folder:Danger Ehren]]
203!!!Real name: Kenneth Ehren [=McGhehey=]
204[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/37wfoen.jpg]]
205[[caption-width-right:350:''"Safety first!"'']]
206->"''I don't get as much respect sometimes as I'd like, but I probably deserve anyways because, like I said, I'm one of the most annoying people you'll ever meet."''
207
208A former professional snowboarder from Oregon and close friends with Dave England. He was recruited onto ''Jackass'' at Dave's request. Ehren is known for being the butt of many jokes and pranks from the other crew members.
209----
210* ButtMonkey: Poor Ehren just can't catch a break. Many pranks were seemingly designed specifically to humilate him.
211** In Nutball, when Steve-O drew from a bowl to determine would get hit in the nuts with a dog bone, the names were rigged to all say Ehren's name.
212** The most infamous example of this was ''Terror Taxi'' in Number Two. He's dressed up like a terrorist (with a beard made from pubic hair) and takes a taxi to an airport, only for the stunt to go awry as the cabbie attacks him, and pulls a gun on him before locking him in the trunk and drive away. Then after it's revealed that the whole thing was an elaborate prank, he's pissed and disgusted when he finds out what his beard was made of.
213** This has not eased up one bit in ''Forever'' and ''4.5'', in which he's endured [[GroinAttack multiple shots to the groin]] (from a punch by a heavyweight boxer, a softball, a hockey puck, a pogo stick [[note]]which caused his testicles to bleed[[/note]], and a bowling ball) and was tied to a chair, covered in honey and salmon, as a bear was unleashed on him.
214** This even extends to the video game, where in one mini-game, a plane flies by with a banner that reads "Ehren sucks."
215* CareerEndingInjury: He was a professional snowboarder prior to ''Jackass'', but retired after breaking his neck.
216* CatchPhrase: "Safety first!" as indicated in the image quote.
217* IconicOutfit: As Danger Ehren, the blue jumpsuit, goggles and helmet.
218* SuntanStencil: He does this to himself in an episode of the show, which results in him having the show's name written on his chest.
219* ThoseTwoGuys: He's frequently paired with Dave England.
220* ThrowTheDogABone: Of a sort. While he still endures plenty of abuse in ''Forever'' (in keeping with his signature ButtMonkey status), he gets off pretty easy compared to Jeff Tremaine, who unlike Ehren, had it coming due to years of putting the cast through hell.
221* TheToothHurts: In 3D, he infamously had his tooth pulled out in the Lamborgini Tooth Pull. This actually damaged his skull up to his eye socket.

291** Both like to pull pranks on their fathers. But whereas Bam's pranks tend to result in Phil getting hurt (i.e., tampering with his chair, causing Phil to hit the ground when he sits in it), Jasper's pranks merely exploit [=DarkShark=]'s phobias and makes sure to not get him hurt.

445* BlessedWithSuck: He's a former con who has gone straight, but has had very little luck in finding legitimate work as a result - at least, until his son offered him the gig of a lifetime by starring in a smash hit film. He now likely makes more money than he ever did slinging, but the hard, ''painful'', '''''terrifying''''' truth is that he is now a proud member of Jackass. [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Good luck to his future endeavors!]]

468----
469* BerserkButton: Rake '''HATES''' mustard, ''especially'' yellow mustard. We don't mean "he simply doesn't like mustard." For instance, putting it anywhere near his food causes him to get abnormally angry; he's gone on record as saying that it disgusts him about as much as period blood, and when Bam winds up covering him in the stuff, the cast was astonished that he "took it that mellow" when they saw his reaction - which included screaming at the top of his lungs and kicking Bam's car repeatedly, implying that he's had far worse reactions in the past.
470-->'''Bam:''' Now Rake hates me and I have a dent in my car.\
471'''Dave Battaro:''' I think you got lucky.

476* HiddenDepths: He has a BS [[note]]Bachelor of Science[[/note]] in chemistry. In a deleted scene from the first movie, Brandon [=DiCamillo=] refuses to spray mustard on Rake because he's afraid the former will retaliate by pouring chemicals on him, as he's roommates with Rake.
477--> '''[=DiCamillo=]:''' I won't spray him, that's the damn deal, first off. Second off, I don't even wanna know what you're planning. Because I don't wanna...I don't wanna fucking know.

490* GroinAttack: In the video game's story mode, he suffers an injury in which he, as Knoxville put it, "sprained his vagina," necessitating a new director.
491* MeanBoss: PlayedForLaughs. Jeff is the guy who makes the cast do their stunts, so he's not exactly popular amongst the cast.
492-->'''Steve-O:''' If you did what our director does to us to a puppy dog, you'd be in jail!

523A camera operator for ''Jackass'', with an unfortunate tendency to vomit.
524----
525* ProneToVomiting: Whenever he's filming a particularly disgusting stunt, he has a tendency to puke, which often necessitates the gang to confiscate the camera he's holding.
526** This reaches an apex in ''Jackass 3D'' when Lance actually ''starts glitching out'' during the "Sweatsuit Cocktail." Right before he pukes, he starts going through ''something'' that is best described as a seizure, trembling and shaking before finally retching. In all fairness to him, that stunt was pure BrainBleach and to date the single most disgusting thing Steve-O consumed.
527--->'''Rick:''' We're losing Lance, guys.
528--->'''Knoxville:''' Why is his hands...?'' (laughs)
529--->'''Steve-O:''' Lance, you alright?
530--->'''Rick:''' I think we broke him again.
531** Taken even further in ''Forever''. ''4.5'' reveals that he had thrown up ''six times'' during filming, the most times he has ever done so during the filming of a Jackass movie.
532* VomitIndiscretionShot: Relating to the above, when Lance pukes, the other camera operator doesn't try to hide it.
