Biografía

His dangerous, controversial stunts

Strange, bizzare tattoos

Leopard skin thong

Often vomits in Jackass

Raspy voice

Was extremely upset and offended by the joke Amy Schumer said during the Charlie Sheen roast regarding his friend Ryan Dunn, who had passed away only a few months prior. Steve-O later said on a podcast was the reason he was upset by this joke was because he agreed with it in a literal sense. He has also made clear he has no problem with Schumer from this joke.

The first thing on Jackass he was supposed to do was jump into a pile of elephant feces. But as the crew was following Steve-O to his house, Steve-O's car broke down in the middle of a pet store parking lot. There Steve-O did his famous "swallow goldfish and puke it up" stunt. The next day, people instantly knew who he was and he got fired at his flea market circus job.

Before he got his big break in Jackass (2000), he did many stunts in front of his friends at parties. One of the stunts involved him lighting his hair on fire and then doing a back flip. While doing this stunt something went wrong and he burnt all the skin on his face off. He had to wear a face mask for a month.

He was tattooed by a "holy man" in Thailand who had previously tattooed Angelina Jolie. The tattoo drawn by the holy man is located on his right shoulder blade.

Was never a clown for Ringling Brothers, but did graduate from Clown College in 1997.

[on quitting drinking] The whole last year before I got sober, I really became a nasty, mean-spirited guy. I think I felt so bad about myself that I took it out on everybody else. I put together this mass e-mail list with the most influential people in my life, and I would blast everyone all these ridiculous e-mails, thinking that it was all, like, really cool at the time...Like, I would describe hallucinations I was having. Or I would talk about jacking off. And I was copying my own family on all this crazy bullshit. And I would just attack people for the benefit of this list of 100 different people. It was all really embarrassing, man. I thought some really inappropriate shit was okay. And that's the scariest thing, to think that if I pick up a drink or a drug, I'll go back to that place...I would love to be able to smoke pot. But the problem is if I do that, my weed bone's connected to my booze bone. And my booze bone's connected to my coke bone. And then it's all this crazy shit. I used to try to quit piecemeal and ultimately I always wound up going back to everything. So the only thing I'm sure of is that if I do choose to drink or get high again, it's all bad -- Not even downhill. You pick up where you left off. And where I left off was a really bad place, man.

My main focus in sobriety has been to replace fear with faith or love.

Abuse yourself all you want - just leave animals out of it. Don't wear fur.

I don't care if people think I'm boring.

Being a vegan just helps me build up my self-esteem. I feel good about it every time I eat a meal.
