Elaborating on it, Johnny Knoxville stated, “Apparently people thought a plane had crashed yesterday in Simi Valley. Little did they know it was from a monstrous explosion @jemfxpopov created for us for the final day ever of @jackass filming. We were standing near the explosion and couldn’t believe what we were seeing. 😂 Immediately after the entire cast went and hugged @jemfxpopov’s neck. Thank you to Elia, his crew and the rest of our amazing crew yesterday to make sure we went out with a bang.”
