'Jackass' Star Ryan Dunn Dies In Car Crash

6/20/2011 6:59 AM PDT by TMZ Staff  

"Jackass" star Ryan Dunn died in a car crash in Pennsylvania early this morning ... TMZ has confirmed with Bam Margera's mother.

34-year-old Dunn appeared in all of the "Jackass" movies -- famously shoving a toy car into his rectum in the first flick back in 2002.

Dunn and an unidentified person both died in the crash which happened around 3 a.m. at Route 322 and New Street in West Goshen Township. It's unclear who was driving the car.

We're told the car caught fire in the crash -- and hours later, a tow truck was called to the scene to remove the charred wreckage.

RIP Ryan Dunn, friend to BMX

As the world continues to mourn the loss of 'Jackass' star Ryan Dunn, who was killed in a car crash early Monday morning, the BMX world reflects on the loss of an inspiration, supporter and close friend to BMX.
Dunn, 34, who grew up in the West Chester, Pa. area, was a close friend of Little Devil and Orchid Footwear owner Derek Adams. And during Dunn's early career as a comedic stuntman in videos such as the CKY series, Dunn often wore Little Devil Clothing to support the burgeoning BMX clothing brand.
When Dunn, along with friend Bam Margera, made the jump to the 'Jackass' TV series, Dunn continued to wear Little Devil Clothing. Dunn also appeared in the intro to Little Devil's legendary video "Criminal Mischief," performing CKY and 'Jackass' influenced stunts. He even made the trek up to Binghamton, N.Y. for the world premiere of the 2001 BMX classic.
"I'm at a loss for words over the death of our friend Ryan. I'm still trying to process it. He had such a lust for life, it's hard to imagine him being gone. Thanks for being such an awesome dude for 34 years. Live fast, die young I guess," said Derek Adams on the Orchid Footwear site yesterday.
But Dunn's BMX influence didn't end with the premiere of the Little Devil video. During the production of Jackass' TV show and movies, Dunn was often featured as the BMX go-to when Jackass' brand of stunts involving a BMX bike were performed, including the BMX Tug-of-War.

Courtesy of Orchid FootwearDunn always did his best to support Derek Adams and Trans Am Distribution brands, including Square One Apparel.

During the skit, Dunn wore a Hoffman Bikes/Evel Knievel collaboration helmet and rode an early model Fit Bike Co. complete. He was positioned on the bike in front of a set of dirt doubles with a cactus in the middle, and attached to his waist was a rope, which was also attached to Jackass cast member Preston Lacey. "Goddamn, this is the BMX tug-of-war," said Dunn, and before he could clear the jump, he was yanked backwards into the cactus.
I know the loss of Dunn affects a great number of people, including his family, friends and fellow members of the Jackass crew, but I at least wanted to take the time to acknowledge his comedic and self-deprecating contributions to BMX throughout his career as an actor, stuntman and reality TV star.
Thanks for making the world a funnier place Ryan Dunn, and thanks for driving over that handrail in a late model American sedan after Van Homan grinded it in the introduction to "Criminal Mischief."

The 7 Most Horrifying 'Jackass' Injuries - recommended

MTV's "Jackass" came into our lives in 2000 and showed us that ...
being insane can be profitable. We've learned many things from those crazy bastards during their tenure: the importance of TV disclaimers; to never challenge Butterbean to a fight; and to never fall asleep in the presence of Mr. Bam Margera.
But most important, we've learned that man is mortal. Yes, hurling oneself backward on a bike or stapling one's scrotum to the leg will have painful repercussions. Relive the most horrible self-inflicted traumas after the jump.

7) Bucket Cars

Brandon Cole "Bam" Margera chose a path that was fraught with horrible pain. The guy is a professional skateboarder who has suffered knockouts and broken bones, and once, he even tore his liver. So by comparison, his "Jackass"-related injuries are pretty manageable. Watch when, during Season 2 of MTV's "Jackass," he broke his tailbone racing a tiny bucket car down a steep hill.

6) Insane Radio Flyer

It's a miracle that Steve-O is still with us after all of his suffering. The man is a true artist, although instead of paints he uses writhing pain, and sometimes feces. During a stunt for the "Jackass" TV series, Steve-O fell out of a little red wagon going at top speed. He scraped off a bunch of ass flesh. The incident caused Steve-O intense pain for two weeks, when no chair was soft enough.

5) Porcelain Nightmare

Bam suffered three broken ribs, a broken clavicle and broken foot during the filming of "Jackass 3D." Luckily, though, kicking his dad's ass while using the toilet on camera is perfectly safe. As long as Bam just focuses on that, nobody loses--except Bam's dad. Because there's no place more sacred for a man than the porcelain throne, this unfortunate beating made the list.

4) Turbulence

Loomis Fall's career has taken all kinds of unexpected turns. He has been in bands, most notably Wax, and he's an actual artist who sells actual paintings. Chances are, though, you recognize him from his appearances in the "Jackass" films and MTV's "Wildboyz" series. Fall is definitely a fitting last name for this skinny little jackass. During the filming of "Jackass 3D," Fall was launched from behind an airplane engine while wearing a full body wind suit. He broke his clavicle and shattered his hand.

3) Bodily Souvenir

Poor Steve-O. He was shot in the nipple with a high-powered BB gun and the scene didn't make it to film. However, the shot caused permanent nipple damage, and the bullet is still lodged in there to this day. It makes you appreciate your unscathed nipples, doesn't it?

2) Butter-Beaned

Johnny Knoxville, the fearless leader of this band of misfits, has charged with his men right into battle. For several seasons of MTV's "Jackass," it almost seemed like Mr. Knoxville was trying to destroy his reproductive organs. The man has been hit by a car and suffered multiple concussions, and in doing so has won our hearts. Thank you, Johnny Knoxville.
One of Johnny's concussions, however, stands out from the rest: the one he suffered when he tried to box Butterbean. The beating left Knoxville concussed and in need of stitches to repair his scalp.

1) The Backflip Heard Round The World

At this point you're saying "How isn't one of Steve-O's injuries in the number one spot?" Well, the answer is simple. During a stunt for "Jackass Number Two," Knoxville tried to do a backflip on a bike. It didn't end well. In fact, it tore his urethra. That's in your penis. Tearing something inside your penis gets you the number one spot on an injury list automatically.

You probably need a warm shower and some private time to caress your man parts after all these disasters. But first, unwind with a few videos of the crew talking about all their injuries.
