"new" (?) show on spike TV. sort of like jackass or viva la bam, but with norwegian dudes who are WAY crazier (the ads for the show had the jackass dudes admitting they were their inspiration, which i didnt know about). I saw a bit of it last night and some dude took a small motorbike and jumped it off some huge ramp flying like 60 feet into a pond, breaking the hell out of his ankle. they put their faces into some kind of anthill which looked rather uncomfortable. they were tumbling down hills in a giant plastic dumpster thing.

this is definitely peurile entertainment, but i always laugh my ass off watching it.

Yeah, Finnish, let me assure you. ( What about them seems Norwegian? )

They've been at it for years, with surprisingly minor injuries. I think their stuff actually predates Jackass? Anyway, they're from the rural northwest and have always had this weird hillbilly lofi touch, which is kinda fun.

They had a cool show some years ago, where they invited local celebrities and proceeded to hurt them in various ways. Served most of them right... They got a T-shirt saying 'Nah, it won't hurt' ("Ei se satu") for compensation
