The stars of Jackass are known for finding themselves in all sorts of dangerous and unpleasant-looking situations, but apparently their antics don't end when the cameras stop rolling.
Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O and the rest of the Jackass daredevils are set to return in a new film released next month, but Jason Acuna, aka Wee Man, caught the attention of fans with a stunt performed this weekend.
Footage of the star has gone viral online after he was filmed in the arms of WWE Champion Brock Lesnar ahead of WWE's Royal Rumble event on Saturday, January 29, but the embrace wasn't exactly a comforting one.
Check it out below:
In the video, filmed in a restaurant in St. Louis, Missouri, 6ft 3 inch Lesnar can be seen holding Wee Man over a table as onlookers laugh and chant.
It's unclear what Wee Man thought of the whole situation, but he didn't appear to struggle too much before Lesnar flipped him over his shoulder and slammed him into a table, which then appeared to fall to the floor.
The sound of smashing glasses was accompanied by cheers and laughter from the Jackass crew, with Knoxville hugging the former UFC heavyweight for the dramatic body-slam.
The footage has been viewed hundreds of thousands of times since being shared on Twitter yesterday, with one viewer describing the video as the 'best content [they've seen on here in awhile [sic].'
Another viewer wrote: 'The Crossover I didn’t know I needed to see.'
Wee Man doesn't appear to have commented on the stunt after it went viral, but it seems the table didn't do too much damage as he could be seen grinning at the Royal Rumble event, in which Knoxville competed after having previously appeared on WWE Smackdown.
Speaking to GameSpot ahead of his appearance, Knoxville said: 'My name is Johnny Knoxville. I come from the south. I like to talk smack and run my mouth. All the girls say I'm something to see. I'm the new king of the WWE.'
The Jackass star ultimately came out ninth in the competition, while Lesnar secured the top spot after entering at number 30.
Following the event, Knoxville told WWE he still wanted to be a world champion as he assured he was 'just getting in to it', adding: 'you're only a failure if you fail to get up, and I got up, and I'm going to keep pursuing becoming the world champion.'
With everything else the Jackass stars have taken on, becoming a WWE champion really doesn't seem too far-fetched.
