Nitro Circus...anyone watching this?

It is very much a spiritual successor to JACKASS.

I just saw last night's episode where travis tried to flip a monster truck, and I thought to myself the last 2-3 episodes have been pretty fucking insane.

The shit these guys are doing is pretty wild and really did remind me of the fun stunts the JACKASS guys used to do before they just became obsessed with gross out humor.

This is the first thing I have watched on MTV since Jackass stopped. I've always liked Pastrana so I gave it a shot and it is definitely a fun show. What's not to love about people doing crazy shit?

Last week's episode with him backflipping into the Grand Canyon only to hit a ledge was fucking insane. I dig the hell outta this show.

Saw the opener.

I just made myself a note to record the show.

Finally saw an episode. It's great. And I agree that this kind of stuff was the FUN stuff that Jackass had before going for puke/shit and bad jokes.

and the worst thing about the show so far has been when they bring on Knoxville and Steve-o and focus too much on them. The Guinness World record episode was pretty amazing. Lowest backflip. Awesome.

I feel the need to add that Jolene has balls. Huge honking brass balls.

Yeah, I added this to the ol' DVR rotation a few weeks back. It's definitely fun to watch, and those guys are insane. That trick where they had the motorcycles, trucks, cars, and anything else they could find all jumping at the same time was crazy. Watching Pastrana dislocate his shoulder, then pop it back in place was uncomfortable, to say the least, though.

If anyone is interested, previous episodes are hosted over at Jackassworld.com.

And yeah, this show is all kinds of insane. If I ever catch a bad case of the cancer and make-a-wish gets my number, I'd probably ask to hang out with these guys for a few days.

I just watched this (i'm kinda doing the entire run in one day) and HOLY FUCK!
They are really chemically unbalanced.
Jumping from the Palms room was insane enough, the grand canyon stuff took it WAY out there.

I'm incredibly late to this but they only just started showing it in the Uk. But I have to say. The cold open with the Deer is probably the best opening I've seen to a show in a long time.
