Jackass star Steve-O might be a household name and worth millions of dollars, but he’s proved he’s not above hitching a ride to his Australian show with a fan.

The professional stuntman shared a clip of himself on the side of a busy road asking a fan for a lift after he discovered that his tour bus was leaking “like crazy”.

Fortunately, Steve O made it to his show on time. “Couldn’t have happened without the boys,” Steve O says and poses with the men who gave him a lift.

However, he faced some more drama ahead of his next appearance. When he discovered his tour bus wasn’t back in action, he caught a cab that cost almost $2,000.

“The next day we go for a six hour taxi ride,” Steve O told his 6.5 million followers. “I make it to my shows, no matter what,” he added.

A post shared by Steve-O (@steveo)

The Jackass star is currently on his Australian tour The Bucket List which has seen him visit QLD, NSW, ACT, and WA. He has upcoming shows in VIC and SA this weekend.

The stuntman recently told Kyle and Jackie O that the closing scene on his tour – which has been pre-recorded – is a stunt he’s been dreaming up for decades.

“The closing sequence of the bucket list tour, which I’m proudly bringing to Australia, it’s a skydiving scene,” he said.

Steve-O added: “Years ago, I decided that skydiving was not at the level that I considered a stunt. I said, grandmas, do this. So I made a pact probably 20 years ago, I said, if I ever go skydiving, I am going to be butt ass naked, and furiously masturbating.”

In preparation for the stunt, Steve-O told the hosts that he abstained from sex from “four whole days”, took four Cialis for breakfast and  has his “jackass buddy to do the duties of fluffer.”
