'Jackass' Star Johnny Knoxville Opens Up About Infamous Gun Stunt

'I shot myself in the chest with a bulletproof vest,' he admits to MTV News.

It's the stunt no Jackass wants to discuss: the time before Johnny Knoxville had a show on MTV and he decided to shoot himself in the chest with a gun. Apparently there's footage out there of the incident, but it's seemingly never been seen by a wide viewership. Is the stunt just a rumor — part of Knoxville's pre-"Jackass" lore — or did it really happen?
