RIP Ryan Dunn, the bearded daredevil who lost his life on Monday in a car crash in Pennsylvania. He had just turned 34 a week earlier. As a member of the infamous Jackass crew, Dunn was renowned for pulling off some of the most ourtageous stunts.
From reports, it would seem that his death was as spectacular. The car in which he was travelling, a 2007 Porsche 911 GT3, was allegedly speeding at 180km/h down Route 222 when it careened off the road and plunged into a tree. Police say that the car burst into flames on impact.
They have not been able to confirm if Ryan or his unidentified friend, who also died in the crash, was driving at the time. His body could only be identified by his tattoos and facial hair.
A photo posted on his Twitter account just hours before the incident shows Ryan drinking with friends.
Until authorities can conclude if alcohol played a part in his death, we can only celebrate the madness that was his life with a look at some of his craziest stunts for the Jackass movies and series.
We would, of course, recommend you NOT try this at home...
1. Jackass 3D jet engine fun
Ryan gets blown away - literally - by the power from a jet engine. It looks like so much fun, the rest of the crew - Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera and Dave England - get in the act too. From the movie Jackass 3D, released in 2010.
2. 30-second Tequila binge
This needs to be seen to be believed. In just over 30 seconds, Ryan chugs down an ENTIRE bottle of Jose Cuervo tequila in front of a live audience. While remaining on his feet, for a while at least.
3. Toy car up the butt
In perhaps his most legendary stunt, Ryan Dunn, with the help of a tube of lubricant, inserts a toy car that's been wrapped inside a condom into his rectum. To mark the occassion, he takes a trip to the doctor with a story about being unconcious the night before and needng an X-ray to find out why his backside hurts so much. The aged doctor's reaction is probably the best part.
Warning: video not for sensitive viewers
Ryan is also known to have superglued his backside to a hairy man's back, before getting his beard glued to Bam Margera's hand. He also somehow survived playing high-speed bumper cars in gold carts, and crashing his bike into a cactus.
Ouch and eina!
