‘I’m Out To Make Tom Cruise Look Like A Big Fat P—y’: Jackass Alum Steve-O Discusses His Drive To Keep Performing Wild Stunts At 50

As a lifelong fan of both Tom Cruise and Steve-O, I find their antics utterly captivating and exhilarating. While Tom Cruise is the epitome of grace under pressure, Steve-O embodies the spirit of rebellion that resonates with so many of us.


At 62 years old, Tom Cruise isn’t just a globally recognized movie star, but one renowned particularly for his daring stunt performances. Cruise and his daredevil acts serve as motivation for many, though few may be more influenced than Steve-O from the ‘Jackass’ crew, who seems to draw inspiration from Cruise in pursuing his own death-defying stunts, aiming to surpass the feats of the ‘Mission: Impossible’ legend.

Despite many members of the Jackass group scaling back on risky activities that could cause long-term harm, Steve-O persists with his tours, performing some extraordinarily bizarre and genuinely dangerous acts. This daring man has even contemplated getting breast implants, though he eventually decided against it. However, he recently disclosed to EW that he’s concocted even more outlandish ideas, all in an effort to make Tom Cruise’s stunts appear routine by comparison. He stated…

If it weren’t for Tom Cruise’s incredible badassery throughout his 50s and beyond, I might not find as much motivation in my life. My goal is to make him seem less intimidating, which has become my personal mantra. It’s a challenging position, but I’m relentless and have decided that I too will be badass and continue to push limits at the age of 50. This entire idea of a cosmetic surgery and the planning for this new tour is all about emulating Tom Cruise in my own way. It’s been quite a rollercoaster ride, filled with numerous mishaps and some unexpected triumphs.

It’s not surprising if you feel that way. When you observe Tom Cruise performing death-defying stunts like driving motorcycles off cliffs at 60, and you’re 50 yourself, it’s natural to think you could still pull off some equally daring feats. Even Steve-O, who’s known for being one of the craziest people out there and has expressed fear of skydiving, is in awe of what Tom Cruise does, just like the rest of us. This admiration from Steve-O, a renowned daredevil, speaks volumes about how impressive Tom Cruise’s stunts are.

Steve-O admits to Entertainment Weekly that he contemplated shooting a bullet through the side of his mouth, thinking it would only harm his cheeks slightly. Thankfully, it seems that Steve-O does conduct thorough research on his stunts and recognized this action wouldn’t have a favorable outcome for him.

Despite attempting to tarnish Tom Cruise’s image, Steve-O is gradually recognizing that his days of risking his body and causing audience members to faint at his performances may be numbered. His ongoing tour appears to have pushed his physical limits to the maximum. The challenge lies in Steve-O finding a new purpose if he’s not engaging in these stunts anymore. He persists…

It’s uncertain if I have the energy or ability to perform another show like this. Regarding the thrilling acrobatics, I’m unsure if I can surpass what I’ve already done in this one. Furthermore, every project I’ve ever taken on was always going to be my final one. Perhaps I will discover new paths and challenges, but at present, I don’t see how I can push my body beyond its limits as it has been for this performance.

Fans are always thrilled by Steve-O’s daring feats throughout his life, but hopefully, they wish for his safety as well, as he approaches the age of 50. It might be best if he hands over the “crazy” antics to Tom Cruise from now on.
