Jackass Foreverin härkäinen temppu aiheutti Johnny Knoxvillelle aivoverenvuodon

Seuraava ja ilmeisesti viimeinen Jackass-elokuva saapuu helmikuussa elokuvateattereihin. Luvassa on taas kerran aidosti vaarallisia temppuja, ja ehkä on hyväkin, ettei jatkoa ole enää tulossa.

Eräänlainen pääosan esittäjä Johnny Knoxville kertoi NME:lle saaneensa aivoverenvuodon härän iskun seurauksena. Kuntoutuminen kesti pitkään.

”Yeah, I got a brain haemorrhage from that. So my cognitive abilities were in steep decline after that hit. No one in my family is happy with the stunts. The bull hit was the worst hit I’ve ever taken from a bull, or maybe period. I remember taking some tests. The neurosurgeon said, ’Do you have trouble paying attention right now?’ I said, ’Yeah, why?’ He goes, ’Because you scored a 17 on [your attention].’ That’s out of 100.”

”I had to go under all these type of treatments, this transcranial magnetic stimulation, which they buzz your head with these magnets for about 30 minutes at a time for like, oh God, I would say 10 to 12 treatments over a series of two months and it’s supposed to help with depression and help with my cognitive skills. It was a tough one to come back from. I was trying to edit the movie at the time but I couldn’t sit still.”
