These are all from man burn night on. I was at burn for 15 days so you guys are getting multiple dumps. This first slide is when I wasn’t sure if I died and was here forever in desert purgatory. Packing my tent. These tents are SAVIORS. If you’ve never been in a shift pod with air conditioning, I recommend it Driving the truck once everyone left for literally 3 seconds and I felt so powerful @freymudd and a dog we met named “cardi b” at the bacon party on the last night we were on playa (wearing a chin dildo) Cones on playa after everybody was breaking down Logistics room renaissance painting. Logs rave was a big hit and I hope they let me do some artsy stuff for patient experience in the main hospital next year !!!! @wokeupcute and @ninoshow night of man burn!!! I love these two and they are such beautiful peeps loml @killagrxm - I have to come visit you and hallmark STAT I liked to be up here and think about if you guys were sleeping in ur tents cause I’m creepy Being insane at sunrise Beautiful @em.o.leeeee CRUSHING FOOTSIE FIRE ON MAN BURN NIGHT VERY BURNER SIGN MAN BURN GIRLIES!!! We found a spot to sit after we dodged a family reunion Man burn was particularly beautiful this year The actual night of man burn makes me pretty overstimulated, there’s like 400 parties happening all at once next to each other. but communal fire watching is very good for the neuroplasticity in your brain. A bunch of pics with my love and a real genius @wokeupcute taken by @ninoshow ❤️ Thanks kitty for being such a good friend 💕 We did not know what to do in these 😂 We put on warm clothes with our cute outfits over it after this because burn this year was COLD Lmfao I basically took this to show @lancebangs @benjilanpher @hbodocs I was walking home from the showers and these two cracked me up

In 2021 I was in the back of a production van on the way to set with DoP Morgan Schmidt and I heard him on the phone talking about filming a Burning Man documentary and I said “Hey, if you ever need anyone for that doc…I’ve always wanted to go”. A year later I get a text “Want to go to work that Burning Man documentary for 16 days? But you have to leave tonight”. I was at the gym, I threw the dumbbells at the wall and ran out the door. I get a call from @benjilanpher and he hears something and asks “Where are you?” “Uhhh, a thrift store” “You’re at a thrift store and not a camera store?” “Yeah? 😬” “You’ll fit in perfect.” Luckily @samskalbeck was there to fill in any wardrobe gaps I had. Huge thanks to @jilliansarettel for helping me compile a lot of these BTS photos from the burn and @kennyrodz for the NYC premiere event photos Forever grateful to the crew I met on this job, the amount of talent, professionalism and overall just fun and good vibes on this set was immaculate. One of those jobs with a crew you truly just hope for again and again.

Somewhat hot off the high-to-lowbrow heels of the 25th anniversary jackass-themed art show that took place in Los Angeles November 2025 came the official announcement for what would be the last theatrical release of the franchise in June 2026. One week of filming in all was slated to take place with a new big time opening sequence and as many ideas that could be crammed into the hours in and around shooting the assorted scenes of said open. We hit the ground running with cameras the last week of February with not only freshly engorged lips for @poopiesgram but a brand new cast member straight outta the apparently imminent future: 1WLarry, aka Larry, who was every much the dick as anyone else on the cast (thanks to the vocal repartee supplied by @adamraycomedy), and boy oh boy did he ever stick it to @steveo. Meanwhile, over in the big bay, Spike Jonze was working out the mechanics of the incredible moving room that would ultimately provide the illusion of sliding and gliding the cast through various stunts, call back or otherwise, with black-and-white photo decor from throughout the past 25 years by @benzo_to_the_max and myself. All on-set PTSD aside—because of course @johnnyknoxville came more than prepared with a car packed full of ouchie surprises—was it great to be back in the trenches with everyone for one last absurd filming fling? In a word or two, heck yeah! How did we end up filming so much butt stuff? Who knows! But we did. Rather poetically so, I guess, as the rear end did indeed play a very large role in our end.

It’s been surreal to watch @hbo’s @themanwillburn documentary series, which features Death Guild Thunderdome in several episodes. Especially exciting and meaningful to us is seeing the impact of our offering on the people the series highlights. . Thanks for catching so many striking moments, crew! ☠️🖤☠️
