History Heartwarming / Jackass

* In ''Jackass Forever'' skit, ''Silence of the Lambs'', Ehren finds a way out of the dark room, but he calls for Dave to follow him to safety, not wanting to leave him behind (at first). Dave, being all too suspicious, refuses and Ehren just leaves him, but points for trying in actually trying to help him.

** Also the ''MTV Tribute to Ryan Dunn" special where we see Dunn's closet friends and family talk dearly of him, granted, the usual Jackass clip are there, but just the beginning with Knoxville telling that the tribute was to celebrate Dunn and how much they cared for him. AW.

** The opening to “4.5” is also a bit of a breathe of fresh air. While there are still quite a few stunts and hits, it overall shows the crew having a fun day at the beach, such as surfing, dancing and having fun. Also, in a blink or you’ll miss it moment, Johnny is seen with two of his kids.

** When Knoxville teased a possible fourth movie, Bam supported the same by giving it the working title ''Jackass 4: We're not Dunn Yet''. Despite remaining in DevelopmentHell (and them deciding to retitle it ''Jackass Forever'' after it got {{saved|From Development Hell}}) he sure knows how to honor his best buddy.

* When Steve-O was going through rehab and detox, as sign of solidarity no alcohol was allowed on set for Jackass 3.

* When Steve-O's life was hitting rock bottom and was really on the verge of killing himself, Johnny Knoxville and Jeff Tremaine showed up at his place and basically forced him into psychiatric help. Everyone agreed that this saved his life, no one, not even Steve-O's family could get through to him, but his Jackass family managed to get through.

* There's something very heartwarming about all the extra attention using 'Corona' for the theme music has given eighties punk rockers {{Music/Minutemen}}, their late guitarist D. Boon, and bass legend Mike Watt. Just look at the play counts for 'Corona' on YouTube and how many of the comments state that they discovered the band through watching ''Jackass''.

** Unfortunately, "real" fans of TheMinutemen seem to hate the "Jackass" audience, so you take the good with the bad.

* The ultimate heartwarmer (in this Troper's opinion) is that, upon Ryan Dunn's death, the Jackass logo skull became adorned with Ryan's characteristic hairdo and beard.

** Knoxville even teased a possible sequel for the third movie, titled ''Jackass 4: We're not Dunn Yet''. Despite remaining in DevelopmentHell, he sure knows how to honor his fellow Jackass crew member.

* April, ''Team Mom'', H holding Dunn's hand for support during the Super Mighty Glue stunt.

* Thanks to ''Jackass'', Knoxville is now legitimately big-time and technically doesn't have to put up with the nonsense anymore, but he still payed (out of his own pocket) a camera crew to follow him around as he did ''additional'' stunts after filming for ''Jackass 2.5'' wrapped and the cast once again disbanded to resume their lives and spin-off shows. When discussing this with the media, Knoxville admitted that he loves doing the stunts and that he could not bear to resume his legitimately big-time life after filming (what was thought to be) the final ''Jackass'' film.
* Believe it or not, the ending for Jackass 3, which is a look back on the first Jackass seasons, accompanied with pictures of the cast members as children, to the tune of Weezer's "Memories".
