    In the trivia section of his IMDB profile:

    Flipped a car 4 times over oncoming traffic on Rt. 202 with Bam Margera, Jess Margera (who only broke his wrist), and Chris Raab in the car.
     
  3. Lost a friend to a drunk driver in March. It's sad that no one around him was mature enough to take the keys from him when it appears he was lit up. Sadly, this could have been avoided.

    I believe during the aftermath of that skit when Knoxville's recovering at some point, someone yells "Dunn Can't Drive Worth Shit."

    At the risk of a threadjack, the director of "Summer Catch," Michael Tollin, also directed the "30 For 30" movie about the USFL. He was on Bill Simmons' podcast several months back and was talking about how hard it was to make Freddie Prinze look like a believable baseball pitcher. They even hired Randy Wolf, who lived in the area where the movie was filmed, to work with Prinze on the side, but Prinze blew him off.

    That's why in the movie, when they show Prinze "pitching," you never see his face, his feet and his arm in the same shot. It's a body double.

    It wouldn't be the first time a sports car has had to have been pulled out of his rectum.
