Health Concerns Force Knoxville to End Stunt Work Knoxville disclosed he has exceeded his concussion limit, making further stunt participation unsafe. He suffered more than a dozen concussions, the most recent from a 2022 bull‑strike stunt that caused a brain hemorrhage, broken ribs, and a broken wrist. These injuries compel him to focus on family and limited on‑screen roles [1].

Other Cast Members Will Continue Performing Stunts While Knoxville steps back, he noted that fellow Jackass alumni remain capable of executing dangerous acts. He expressed confidence they can carry the finale’s stunt sequences without his involvement. This shift marks a significant change in the franchise’s production dynamics [1].
