ACS: Adam and the Dudesons

Adam welcomes Jukka and Jarppi from the new MTV television series, The Dudesons in America. The show is essentially Finland's version of Jackass and the show is even produced by Jackass star Johnny Knoxville. Adam can't help but notice that Jarppi is wearing a back brace. In fact, he broke his back doing one of the series first stunts and has been in the brace ever since. In discussing the type of stunts The Dudesons do, they all conclude that it's really about coming up with more creative ideas, and not so much bigger is better. Adam wants to know more about Finnish culture, specifically their laws on censorship and various customs. It seems that it is more or less anything goes in Finland, and the signature dish is Reindeer meat. Adam asks, You drink Rudolph's blood!? The guys also say that Bear meat is a common dish, often served with mashed potatoes and blood for gravy. Adam loves the stunts that are diabolically simple, but also wants to know if they have any major stunts planned the way that Evel Kenevil said he would jump over the Grand Canyon. Jukka and Jarppi say the one stunt they really want to pull off is having a guy wear a condom on his head and stick it up an elephant's ass. They have yet to find the elephant willing to sign the release form. Off the air, Adam was discussing how rally car racing is extremely popular in Europe but has yet to catch on here in the States. Adam thinks it's crazy how people line the paths of the raceway, and cars are flying everywhere while people are just sitting around drinking beers. Adam also mentions Travis Pastrana, who jumps out of airplanes without parachutes. He says someone is going to get killed eventually when that happens, will someone finally put their foot down? Jarppi says that even though they've had 5 hospital visits after only 8 episodes, their show is a balance of the big stunts, and also the smaller, more creative ones that they really love. Adam is reminded of the pranks he and Jimmy Kimmel had to come up with for their Wheel of Destiny bit on The Man Show. The idea was that an audience member would spin the wheel, and they needed cruel things to inflict on people that could also be television friendly. His personal favorite was Adam pees on your wallet. Sure enough, someone landed on that space, and they immediately took his wallet out and placed it in a urinal onstage. Adam peed all over it, grabbed it by tongs and returned it. Adam is also curious about Finland's relationship with Russia and other surrounding countries. They talk about languages and piracy, most notably how before their DVDs are released in Finland, they are already available for download in some countries. Adam remarks that it's scary you can buy just about anything from Russia, including military supplies. All the military talk reminds Adam of a great stunt accessory that anyone has yet to use: the air cannons that are used to shoot birds into jet engines. Adam shows them videos of how these cannons work, and as they wrap up the show, Adam has the ultimate Jackass prank: build a time machine and bang your friend's mom. Jukka says he would love to do that with Jarppi's hot mom, and Adam says The Dudesons have been nothing less than a delight. Be sure to check out their new series, The Dudesons in America, premiering tonight (Thursday) at 10 on MTV.
