There's a quiz show where your balls are punished by a flipflop on a mechanised pulley system if you don't know the right answer.
Sometimes it isn't entirely clear which stunts have been set up on Jackass. Sometimes it feels like reactions are slightly performed rather than 100% reactive and in-the-moment.
But for this one, there's no hiding the crew's pained expressions. Three of the Jackass team are lined up and get hit in the balls by rogue flip-flops. Slow-motion shots leave none of the pain off the table.
Guys bend and crease, and sometimes fall to the floor with their mouths wide open, screaming in agony.
It's horrendous - and I couldn't stop ogling for more.

Citizens knocked to the streets by gallons of cum can only mean one thing: a dick monster is on the loose. So we don't ruin the surprise we won't reveal where this skit is in the film, but let's just say at one point a penis is dressed up to look like a monster that's hundreds of feet tall.
It took me 30 seconds or so to realise it was a dick and not a huge, towering prop.
And you say dicks are just there for laughs? Well no! They're there for *actual storytelling* too, and to create actual suspense. No artistically crafted pretend dick monster ever could look as menacing as a real one.

There's so much more dick content. As cast member Jeff Tremaine told The Guardian: "Listen, it’s never not funny to see someone else get hit in the nuts.” We couldn't agree more.
Ten years after the last instalment of Jackass, the team is back, and with Knoxville now 50, it's nostalgic and comforting to see them still this relentlessly good at physical comedy.
It's just scene after scene of hilarious stunts, just how you like it.
Dick jokes, it turns out, never go flaccid.
Jackass Forever is in cinemas from Friday February 4
