- I was dead broke well into shooting the second season of Jackass on MTV, and here's how that happened. I wouldn't have made this video if it were not for the comment I saw on my last video: • The Ridiculous Story O...
Looking back on how all of this went down, I just can't believe it...

I've been sitting here reading and replying to comments for the last twenty minutes or so, and I'm overwhelmed with gratitude. Honestly, I cannot express how much I appreciate all of the kind words and positivity. You guys truly keep me motivated to continue working as hard as I have been on getting all these new videos out. Thank you all, so much. Lastly, I want to clarify why I said it "hurts my soul" to see that old DVD-- it's not at all because other people were making the money from it (if that were the case, I would be upset about Jackass dvds). The reason I said that is simply because that DVD is awful. It deserved the 2-star rating it got, and I feel like it's a stain on my legacy. Not a big deal-- after all, one of the most important rules in life is to never take yourself too seriously. Thanks again, Everyone, really... xoxo -O
You`re the best Steveo !
steveo You’re awesome and it’s been great to watch you grow as a person while telling some kickass stories!!!
Long live Steve-O The Legend
Your a legend steve-o
I love u SteveO! Keep pushing through this cluster fuck called life! Hi Wendy
steveo youre the man steve-o! I grew up watching your shenanigans and im so happy to see that youre living the life! Say hi to your gorgeous Wendy
Steveo just telling his stories is seriously the best shit on youtube.
Thank you!
Especially being stoned its so class
Yea
@@steveo thank you man ur incredible
Every time I stumble across this channel I always end up watching video after video and don't even realize hours have passed. I should probably subscribe.
I love how he's 100% honest about exactly how much he's earned. Most people never do that. They just say "I wasn't paid much" which ends up being extreeeeemly ambiguous.
I know. Very endearing
Little Monster #1 so fucking true
Hey Steve-O
Little Monster #1 IKR when I was a kid I use to ask my mom how much do you get paid at work? and she's like you shouldn't be asking me that
Another taboo to benefit the rich whose net worths are known everywhere, somehow.
Think of this, he made more money on this video than the season of jackass 😂
different times my man
probably not because he probably gets demoitised
For real. Sucks they took such terrible advantage.
@@cloudz3409 True, but he definitely earned at least $1,500 from merch and book sales from this video alone.
Knoxville exploited you to the fullest.
Steve-O is literally the only person I can just sit a listen to him talk and talk and talk, and I never get bored or frustrated lol
same XD
Even having ADHD I agree
same
Same! I'm not trying to be that person, but a lot of guys that come from his walk of life do not speak very fondly of women to put it lightly (I'm trying so hard not to say something mean about people😂), but Steve-O is never like that. He even acknowledges that along with drugs and reckless behavior, his relationship with sex and women was bad at one point too. He doesn't try to hide it and act like he is a saint, and I respect that.
And lose brain cells.
Who knew almost 20 years later steve-o would be straight, sober and sane?
I mean most people assumed he’d be dead by now
and not broke
Gail Thompson dont really
Steve-O is the personification of ""you can be better""
Likea Boss I did.
You’re like that cool uncle who has an air hockey table in his basement
This one seems a lot less likely to molest me in exchange for playing with it though.
@@knuckledragger4648 😭😂😂😂😂
Don't forget the foosball table
Hey Steve-o man congrats on getting sober big fan by the way your one of my favorite Jack asses lol
Patrick Wiebe who are you talkin to man
I could watch Steve-o's videos ALL day long! Just hearing the different stories about your life is crazy and super entertaining. I've been watching steve-o and the rest of the jackass crew since I was like 12-13. You're all legends to me. There will never be anyone like you guys and I feel lucky to have been growing up with/watching you guys do your thing. God bless you all and thank you for all the entertainment and laughs you've given me and countless others to this day and many years to come 🤘😎
Thank you!!!
@@steveoyou the best steveo. 😎🤟
“How do I know you ain’t gone piss in the car” 🤣🤣🤣
what a smartass;)
Steve-o I am 3 months clean from pills today, thank you for being you.
Edit: Holy shit you guys, thank you for all the support.
congrats
Congrats dude
Keep it up man!
Congrats bro
Amazing job, you're on the right track 100%
I Could Literally Listen To Steve-O tell stories all day!! The Most Entertaining Stunt Man/Legend to ever Live...🐐
AGREEEE!!!!!
Yeeeeesssss! !!!
The stray dog he found and brought home is one of my top 3 videos on CZcams.
For shore 100%!
@@GlockRevolver mine also🖤
I was 17 when season 1 premiered on MTV. Jackass changed my life. My friends and I wasted no time trying to imitate as much as we could. I don’t know how many times we hit up Hot Topic to purchase as much Jackass merchandise as possible. You guys made my childhood awesome! Thank you!
At 17 your way past childhood your basically an adult
My 17yo son passed on from an overdose in march, this year has been shit for me in so many ways, thank you for helping me smile, laugh and take my mind off things while i can, even while sleeping in my Truck!!! It's awesome to see how much you have matured but still have the same awesome sense of humor you have always had...i was about 14-15 when jackass came out. Your one of the few celebs that i would love to hangout with. It would be so fun and humbling to hangout with you.
Sorry about ur son, mate
So you had a kid when you were 16?
My sister also passed from an overdose in March...on Friday the 13th. It's coming up on a year already and the pain is still so fresh....I couldn't imagine it being one of my children . I'm really sorry💔💔💔💔
I died from an OD last year... thanks to friends i survived ...
Idk why, but I really love the "yeahh dude" in Steve-O's intro.
We all sing it.
Fucking iconic
lol even my five year daughter says it sometimes lol
Hell yeah!
Steveo was like Kurt Cobain when Nevermind came out. Cobain was living in his car as his album climbed up the chart.
Yeah Dude
Yeah I said that in a previous video's comments as well. It's true, Kurt Cobain was in fact homeless when Nevermind, the same album that ended up topping even Michael Jackson, was released. Kurt Cobain is interesting to me because I think he both wanted to be a rich and famous rockstar, but at the same time he didn't. He was torn between his punk rock side, and the side of him that really loved and idolized the Beatles. He ended up blending the two about as perfectly as anyone has ever managed to do, but I think if you asked him and he was honest he'd be like "I wanted to be OK, I never wanted to be the equivalent of Jesus to rock music" though.
But yes, 100%, when Steve-o was like "I was broke on the eve of getting so much success for myself, perhaps even before I really knew it" that immediately made me think of Kurt Cobain as well.
@@voteZDLRKurt wasn't even punk rock, he was just Kurt and people wanted to be like him so they dressed punk rock😂 but no fr tho, he had a very hard and sad life. What we see as a grunge aesthetic now is just what grunge people looked like at the time, not to say people didn't dress that way on purpose but you know.
ROCK ON STEVE-O!! Yewwww
I just love his honesty
Me too. I don't think anyone else that famous ever told the world about how much they made.
Steve-o: The bit wasn’t even that funny
Him: Throw himself at a pumpkin.
Me: lol
Same
I'm glad I'm not the only one who laughed at that lol
Its LITERALLY a God given miracle you're not dead Steve o
It's a god given miracle he's even on this earth with us
@@dawdlewaddles2760 that's what I said
@@enginecalibrationcode8779 I meant that I'm happy he was brought into this earth to entertain us
@@dawdlewaddles2760 Ah. I see now. My bad.
stop saying literally
Bro you’re the only person that I listen to when told like and comment, you deserve everything you have💯
Thank you so much!
This guy deserves every good thing coming his way.
Growing up i never thought id see Steve O as a better role model than my dad
I've never related to a post so much in my life lol
Steveo: The bit wasn’t even that funny
...dives head first at a pumpkin
Me: *laughs uncontrollably*
Zac Reedy realizes you’re a stupid fuck
dude same 😂
Confused but thanks for the reply
Me too
@@PHATB0Y20 Because he has a different opinion? 🤦🏻♂️
l used to always find steve-o attractive lol and he still looks good to this day! :D
Same girl same....but I've always been attracted to guys everyone else looks at like 🙄🙄🤢🤢🤢
@@eccronnieves977 Steve o is attractive though
@@dancer1I definitely think he is...but not everyone will think that tho🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Stevo, thank you so much for your candor. Your videos are the soul-cleansing stuff that I enjoy. I know you say you appreciate us, and lemme just say I appreciate YOU! Keep it 100 and cheers to a new year, dude.
Steveo having all these insane stories and seemingly doing quite well for himself nowadays is super inspiring.
Not to mention he is an extremely good guy. I wish nothing but the best for him. He deserves it.
Steve O was always the coolest guy out of all the jackass crew. Wish I had a friend like him.
love the guy
Knoxville
Especially when he's clean & Sober
And definitely the smartest and kind(when he's sober!!!
steve and chris for life!
My Fiancee and I love you, Steve-O. We love all the guys at Jackass and all the laughter they've brought us over the years. I love the fact that you are going in-depth about your life before, during and after Jackass. It's nice learning these things because it gives your person a new depth.
Thank you!
I absolutely love hearing you be so candid and honest about your life experiences. Also my little brother wanted me to say he thinks you're awesome dude!
Bro now you are making 10 times more with 1 video on CZcams, and u don't need to hurt yourself.
Stay healthy
i dont think he cares about this youtube money lol
@@1tride684 I am sure that if you have 5mil subscribers.. you are set for life :)
money never was his main concern, attention and identify are
@@sidalong6128 attention and identify... Its funny when you indians try to use the english language. Sanjeet or sida your grammar is incorrect
sernaspartan don’t be a prick
The kids 100 years from now, will still tell tales of the great Steve-o
The thing is most kids now don't know who he is so it's up to us to keep the word out.
Hey Steve-O, first time caller long time listener. Just wanted to pop in the comment section and thank you for your sacrifices in life and creating so much entertainment for the 90's kids. Growing up my friends and I worshipped you and everything you've done. Thank you again. Even now I'm going through the worst chapter of my life in a divorce and losing my parents slowly to cancer but you're still out there producing great content and making me smile. You really help me get through the days. Take care, bro.
We are so grateful for you Steve-o, i started watching jackass at 10 i think it came out, i remember sneaking into the movie theater to watch to first Movie and literally crying i was laughing so damn hard. We love you man, and we will support anything you have a hand in for as long as you keep making videos, books anything.
Right now im unemployed, broke, lonely, sober, straight, depressed and started to watch steve-O videos telling us about his life and man, this dude is inspiring me so much! I have nothing to lose! Im a totally unskilled man! But steve-O make me feel inspired! Hopefully I’ll find what exactly I need in my life before I get death.
Dave O , hope you doing better Man
At least your sober. Thank God every day for that
Gosh that's deep
I hopee yourr okayy
Thats insane
I love older Steve-O looking back at younger Steve-O.
You're a huge inspiration man! I admire how even though you had financial difficulties you still winged it and made it.
Steve-O!!! We all love you. I watch you first over everything else I watch on CZcams. You keeping it real, honest and humble makes me love you even that much more brother!!!!
This man has been to hell and back and still positive af.
not even vegans can criticize him
He’s one of the few “tv famous” people that’s doing CZcams right! He actually gets the platform. Love him.
If you laugh you sub! how is he a pedophile? you can’t just throw things like that around without actual proof. people that do that make me sick.
@If you laugh you sub! he's talked about the tattoo publicly.. even talked about it during a comedy special. Pedophiles don't do that. He was on every drug imaginable when he got the tattoo and his mindset at the time was "oh.. I'll get this tattoo and it'll mean fuck having children"... after he got the tattoo Preston and Knoxville told him no one was going to see it thst way and it would be a really awkward tattoo to have. So Steve O went to the tattoo shop to get it covered up. The tattoo guy didn't want to do the cover up..so Steve O grabbed the needle and covered it himself. He's brought attention to the tattoo multiple times to make jokes about how stupid it was. The tattoo is the only thing people use to try and say he's a pedophile. There are no allegations. No videos. Nothing that actually proves he's a pedophile. If he was actually silent about the tattoo and deleted comments of people talking about and avoided ever talking about it, that would be suspicious...but he literally brought attention to it during one of his comedy specials..and I'm 2015 Steve O and Preston were going back and forth on Twitter about how dumb and stupid the tattoo was.
@If you laugh you sub! screw you! He's not
"There rippin off my eyebrows and I'm fuckin broke" 🤣🤣🤣
Steve-O is the best. I'm so glad he's sober now and living life to the fullest. He was always my favorite out of all the JACKASS crew.
This dude is the funniest ever!!! I am happy he's still alive to tell his story.
His too crazy
@@xavier7316 So true, could have just been another fame casualty, but he's living the dream now.
Steve-o is quite possibly the most interesting man in the world
Him & Ozzy Osbourne
plagveskvll knew u were gonna be that smart ass smh
@@anasanam6812 ok who the fuck asked you anything
Hunter S Thompson
Exodus.exe i love hunter
Bro I'm in my 30's now and I watched your stuff all the time when growing up - today I just found this channel by accident when looking up what you're up to these days and damn man... This is the best thing on youtube!!!
Been following your antics for nearly 20 years.. still make me cry with laughter, much love dude
"Cops were excited to see me for the first time"
Lol never change
That Moment when you realize that SteveO is getting paid more from CZcams than MTV
I’ve been watching you/the Jackass crew for the better part of 2 decades. I didn’t know what I was watching hardly when younger, just enjoyed the mayhem ha. To look back on it now and see all the awesome things you’ve accomplished, struggles you’ve overcome, etc, it’s truly cool to experience. You could teach classes/seminars on how to be successful.
steve-os life is a literal jackass movie 😂
I'd like to hear some Wildboyz stories. I'm glad I own all four seasons on dvd
lucky
Indeed his fucking lucky
Yeah Wildboyz was one of the greatest shows to ever exist!
Love ya Steve-O!!
Yes yes yes fucking yes
i watched every season on youtube a few years ago
Looking super healthy man
he does he looks amazing!!
Honestly seeing him now vs back then is like seeing 2 brothers
Definitely
He definitely does not look 70 years old. After being an absolute drug addict, he looks good.
Your honesty is only outshined by how well you are doing in sobriety. I subscribed to your channel a month ago. Back when you were sick I never would have done that. GB.
You have truly been through a wild ride, its awesome to see you grow from the very beginning to now
Whenever somebody asks me who I’d like to have a conversation with dead or alive its always Steve-o
Lucy cisneros same
SteveO on CZcams telling storys is one of the best things on CZcams so far :D
Love it !
ZoCkBoBo right it’s so Interesting
Just broke my screen to hit the like help stevo 🤣🤣
Steve-O, what makes your stories so great is that you lived to tell them another day. I don't think anyone knew the amazing effect your courage and craziness was going to have. The human race didn't know what hit them. You have truly made an impression. The world is different because of STEVE-O. Thank You.
honestly a true role model for anyone who had struggled with addiction
Steve-o, you’re the best inspiration and I’m glad after all these years you’re still a rad dude.
I never thought I would see any of the Jackass crew old and sober especially Steve O. I’m honored to have grown up with you guys thanks Steve O for everything dude
Me and my dad used to watch jackass whenever it was on. He thought it was funny af, even the bits I didn't laugh at he'd be cracking up. You and the crew gave me a ton of memorable moments with my dad, and that's something that lasts forever. Thank you for being around, Steve-O. Love you bro.
Me too, I barely have any memories of my parents but I still remember the very first time Jackass was on we were all laughing our asses off
This is really wholesome you guys. Wish Steve-O could see this🙏🏽❤️
What a badass genuine dude! You were always my favorite jackass boy.
Ryan Dunn would be mine. Buddy is resting in peace though.
Love hearing the stories man, You tell them well.
Your a hero to us man. And a hardass at that lol. Take care of yourself Steve-O
I'm 3 months off heroin and going strong. Steve-o your a huge inspiration!!!! Next will be getting off sublocade.
12 South good luck man
!
Good job!
Thank you to everyone for the support! And good luck to anyone working on getting clean. It's worth whatever you have to do to get there.
Stay Strong Bro!!
He said the pumpkin one wasn’t even that funny. But he showed the one clip and I started laughing. 😂😂😂😂
Me too! I was busting up! 😂
Facts that shit had me dead 😂😂😂
Andrew Beer yeah same I died to that 🤣
Andrew Beer ikr
Same🤣
You're the best Steve-o. You've been cracking me up for years. I love you dude!
Super happy for you! Have been a fan for a long time and it's great to see you happy and sober. Keep up the great work!
I could literally sit here all day long and watch to your videos. Really tumbs up to you Steve !
Wild boy stories would be awesome. I love Chris and feel like he’s the least known about out of the group. Beside Preston
Not many know erin or dave england, pontius was cool
Yes! Please give us Wild Boys stories
What about Rake Yohn?
bigmike1547 I thought about him. But I feel like only bam can give us a real story about him.
Love your evolution Steve-O! just know you’ve impacted a life right here 💜
I’m currently readying your book. Your journey is so intense and insane!! It’s so cool to see how far you’ve come!!! You rock dude!🤘🏻
I have 9 months clean today. You are an inspiration steveo!
9 months clean today!! Whoop whoop. You a friend of Bill's? Either way, congrats on 9 months. I'm right behind you.
Day at a time boys
Well done congrats.
9 months don't soud like a lot of time, but it is :D
Go on bro :D It's always better to be clean
I was a pothead for 5 years I had maybe 20 days without weed during this time.
Now I am clean for 8 months. Keep it up :D
Definitely a friend of bills. I earned my seat you could say 😳
@@DystopianDinoo you and me, both!! Mine was a hard surrender but I'm so glad I did it! Congrats!!
Can you imagine how much money they were making and only paying him so little? I really hope he's making a lot of money off CZcams.
people making money on youtube? LOL
Tim Ritter yes, it’s 2019
They make less now tho
You can look up you tubers estimated earnings. He’s bringing in anywhere from 31k-502k a year off of CZcams alone. Who knows how accurate it is but that’s a pretty broad range so he has to be doing decent. Even if he’s making 30k. I’m happy for him. He deserves it.
MusicMan420 where the hell have you been for the last 2 years? You heard about apocalypse? Any video with bad language or graphic content is demonetized. He’s only making money off of merch sales.
You're the best Steve-O! Dreams come true indeed
These stories are amazing keep it up. Each time i watch i continue to be impressed by your life story and how you got cleaned up. Keep it up man
"I'll make the iron hot" best quote ever, approaching a year sober, your an inspiration bro
A year ? Well done my man keep pimpin ! 💪🏼
Congratulations man. I'm happy for you.
Proud of you man keep it up 💪💪
Good for you brother! Keep that positive attitude and motivation
YEA DUDE!! KEEP IT UP!!
Steve-O should do cartoon voices..iv never heard anyone talk like him🤔
lebron james
indeed
however
it would always sound like steve-o and that would be confusing haha
Really? My grandma who has half a lung, half a liver, and has smoked tons of cigarettes all her life sounds exactly like him 😂
Marge from the simpsons
sounds like a more mild sean dyche
Steve-O your the fuc*ing truth thanks for all the laughs over the years. Keep on ur grind brothef
Thanks for all your fun videos. And happy to of found your CZcams channel! Thanks steve-o
Bam: buying 2 Audis
SteveO: I couldn’t even afford 2 whoopers
Niggas fucked up in the crib ain't got 2 dollars
Bam was already sponsored when Jackass started 🤷🏾♂️
Maya Toledo Bam has SHITLOADS of history making money before Jackass. Skating, CKY etc.
Now it would be impossible Whoppers since he's vegan.
I've got a lot of respect for you Steve O. You have had ups and downs, shared it with the world and persevere. I think your future is with helping other humans or helping animals. You are truly a good person.
Your story is incredible, love you! Please keep uploading 🙏
Love seeing the insight and perspective on your come up man. Way cool of you to share your story.
I never thought I’d see the day sober steve-o is way cooler than never-sober Steve-o
I was 14 when jackass started. I'm 33 now. So I grew up on you dude. And it's great to see where you're at now!
same boat im 31...grew up on cky and jackass stuff and steveo deserves the most recognition
I was 9 when it started, i was probably 11 when jackass was available on VHS or DVD not sure. They were calling my mom to know if I could rent it hahahaha good times.
Steve O entered in my life in 2006 when I got to see jack ass for the first time as a kid and since then I lived my life with no regrets . Thank you Steve O for the Motivation.
Glad to see you healthy and happy bro. Much love from PA
This may well be one of the best channels on CZcams, Steve-O feels so much more genuine than “youtubers”.
That is because he became a youtuber before it all gets hyserical aroun here. ;)
I could listen to Steve-O talking, like, forever! From cool stories to non-sense.
You're the greatest! Thanks for all you do!
We love your videos and stories man thanks you for sharing steve o💚
I actually prefer sober Steve-O to junkie Steve-O
Ain’t no junkie you ignorant fk
Isaiah Christian he was !
He didn’t mention stealing of family doing herion and injecting crack so stfu
@@isaiahchristian8641 but u gotta admit, he was crazy in his coke and nitrous days. in no way was he sane at his worse so i think that he at his worse he was a bit junkie like. still love him tho
Feels good to see sober Steve O
Kids these days have no idea what it’s like growing up in the 90’s2000’s watching you destroy yourself. Thanks for the memories Steve-O
Cierto
I’m sad I couldn’t see the jackass movies and tv show while they came out but god damn the movies are what I need right now, so funny
Hell yeah
Yeah, different times
Oh yeah
every video of you makes me laugh, and that is probably the greatest gift someone can have. thank you Steveo for being so awesome!
I think you are a great guy, I love to hear you talking about your life. Thank you for all the great fun and the effort you put in
“They’re rippin off my eyebrows, and I’m fuckin broke”
The way he delivers normal sentences just makes me fucking laugh
I laughed so hard when he said that. 😂😂
They flew me out to newyork city, with no eyebrows. 😂😂😂
That's not a normal sentence
"Cops were excited to see me, FOR THE FIRST TIME. "
You said so much in just one sentence.
I cant go a day without watching at least one steve-O video, your my hero dude! Rock on
Such a huge influence on my childhood man, you're the king
