Saw this last night myself
Great look back wish they had show more that got cut Ryan water sking off the van roof was funny
I hope they think about release all of the stuff with him that never made it to air and the movies
Random Hero you where the shit and Me and my friends will keep the jackass alive up here in maine
Just got done watching the tribute to ryan dunn, One of my favorite people from jackass. It sucks that he died and me and my group of friends honestly understand what the jackass gang are going through comming up on two years ago our friend dom marchesani got drunk and hung himself, So it sucks to see them upset their the jackass guys you know they are tougher than anyone, but it just goes to show that no one is stronger than death and ryan dunn your loved and missed.
I randomly tuned to MTV tonight, and they were playing JA 3.5. The first face I saw was Ryan’s. He made me cry again. I remember all of the times that he made me laugh, and never imagined a day that he would make me cry.
Loses are always hard, but when a person like Ryan lives their lives so out loud, the silence in their death is deafening. I cannot imagine the pain that the guys, the family, and the close friends are dealing with. My heart goes out to Bam, who is the definition of Best Friend.
The guys’ claim to fame is the limitless shit they do to each other, and themselves, to get a laugh and have a ball. I pray that God keeps each and every one of them safe. I was soo happy to see Steve-O turn his life around through sobriety. Don’t get me wrong, I have done more than my fair share of 15 too many shots and am far from a teetotaler, but when something stands between you and really living life, it’s time to get rid of it. Steve-O’s decision to clean up demonstrates his bravery more than any stunt he has ever done for JackAss.
I pray that Johnny, Bam, and Steve-O continue to support each other and remain lifelong friends. God Bless Phil and Ape for watching over these guys all of these years, taking their shit, and loving them for the men they really are. I know the loss of Ryan had to affect them just as much as losing a child of their own. Ape has been a Mother to every one of these boys and she will carry this pain the rest of her life.
Ryan is fine now, and God only knows what stunts he is pulling in Heaven, but I know he is making them smile. Ryan’s biggest miracle was on Earth, turning pain and heartache into JOY.
R.I.P. Ryan – Love, A Fan
I just really miss you, Dunn, than a blog.
It just really hurts. I still really hurt.
As a kid, I was never really into Ryan, Bam or anyone who associated with them, I thought they were very childish. But going into the 8th grade (2004) changed that. I got stuck with people who loved the Jackass crew (and the CKY Crew) so I decided to give it a chance. the first thing I watched, was the Arbor Day episode of Viva La Bam, the first thing I seen was a huge tree falling to the ground, and I was thinking “Are these people out of thier damn minds!?” Within minutes I was literally rolling on the floor with laughter, to the point to where I was gasping for air.
From there, I was absolutely hooked. I followed whatever the guys did, and became completely infatuated with thier lifestyle. I loved both the Jackass crew and the CKY Crew, Ryan being at the top of that list. To this day, the Riot Control Test is still my favorite Jackass stunt, Ryan being one of the reasons why. You could just tell he was dreading that thing, and it made it all that more hilarious! One thing that I thought was extremely adorable was Ryan pulling Bam out of the snake pit in Jackass 3, it just showed how great of a friend he was.
When I heard what happened, it was early in the morning, and I was at my friends house, because she was going to do my hair. I got on Facebook, and saw a post that said RIP Ryan Dunn, I immediately thought it was a mistake (or a sick prank) and googled it and it was true. After that, I told my friend(who was also a fan) and the rest of the day was kinda depressing. I ended up going home early and was listening to my iPod, and a certain song came on and that’s when I broke. I swear, I cried for four days straight. I never thought that I would actually full on bawl over someone that I never even had a chance of meeting, but Ryan, along with every other Jackass/Viva La Bam member touched me in a way that I can’t even begin to describe. They could make me laugh when nothing else could, and the fact that one of them is gone now, it just doesn’t seem right.
Watching Bam and April cry like that, really brought everything home, and really put everything in perspective. Ryan was gone and he wasn’t coming back.
Afterwards I got on my computer, and watched everything I could find with Ryan in it. Even though it was really hard, and I cried through most of it, I knew that’s what he would have wanted me to do, to watch his stuff and to laugh until I couldn’t breathe. I am planning on getting a tattoo for him, and I made a tribute video for him.
I also couldn’t wait to see Living Will. I had been waiting on that movie for about a year, and when I thought back to the plot I broke down again. The first thing I thought about was maybe, that was Ryan’s way of saying that if anything ever happened to him, to not be sad, and to laugh at the memories he gave us and that he would always be with each and every one of us and he would always be watching over us(which is a pretty scary thought, when it comes to Ryan Dunn lol) and that he would never leave us.
I finally got to see it, and all I kept thinking back to, is one: Ryan’s not here anymore, which made me want to break down. And two: he would want me to laugh at the stupid shit he said and did, not to mope about it, so that’s what I did:) Ok, I’m just rambing now so I’ll stop. But Ryan, thank you for putting a smile on my face when noone else could. I will never forget you, and anytime I trip, I’ll think of you:) I love you Random Hero, and I’ll see you on the other side.
I still can’t believe that one of the greatest jackass star’s is gone. He was my favorite and always made me laugh. If i was in a bad mood i would put on one of the jackass movies , viva la bam, or cky. Anything with Dunn in it!! Now when i watch it, i still laugh but also feel sadness inside, but i would never stop watching any of it!!! i just recently had the chance to watch Living Will, it was a great movie for Dunn. I’m just glad they released it!!! Just because he passed on does not mean it should not be released, so now it is and it is worth watching even if u are not a jackass fan!!! I do have a decal on my car for Ryan. Everytime i look in my rear-view mirror his memory is looking back at me!!!! Love U Ryan And I Always Will!!!!!!! Christina
It’s hard to even write how I feel. I have never really cared about deaths of any celebrities or anything I know its sad for their families and shit but when I heard we lost you it hit me hard I felt devastated it was so fucking sad..I still get emotional watching videos of you,you know its hard to watch jackass cause I know we will never see that amazing smile of yours or hear your laugh which was awesome …You are so greatly missed by so many people and will forever be in our hearts…Rest in Peace you talented sexy ass man ..

like most, and as I have said before, I never had the luck to know Ryan personally, just for tv or internet or DVD, just miss you Ryan, I can not understand why you’re gone and have left us. not be going as Angie, I imagine, but obviously it is different … I think that if I am dead in life, being that I had never in front of me, as it must be to spend more than 9 years of romantic relationship … simply that woman has a terrrible willpower and admirable … I think it would not support … beyond that, my heart is with Angie, his family and friends! the only thing I have to say is that I love Ryan, I love you, and nothing will be the same without you, but I am glad Ilived to see you and laugh with and thanks to you … you’re the best, you are my love, my dream come true, and you are the brightest and the great star in the sky and for all with all that touched … from Angie to us, your fans. thanks for the laughter of many years, thanks for everything you gave me, you never forget,always be in my heart, soul and body. the only thing that leaves me some comfort is that I’ll always remember with a huge smileas you want it, and we will see in a few years and so you can be with you and meet you for real! I will love you for life and after too … x always yours … samy
PS: hopefully have the happiness to see you again, is what most want, while you will be in my home and my back. and remember that my tears and laughter are all yours … my bearded redhead … I will miss you as usual, with love, samy

Id like to say my deepest thoughts and love goes to Ryans Angie, may god watch over you and ryans family.
When i heard the news i had to leave work, i just broke down into tears for hours. I was shocked. It made me feel sick that someone i grew up watching a looked up to so much has sadly passed away. Even now i still cant believe it. Come back man we need you!!
As a true fan and jackass follower, i did the most respective thing i could think of. I got R.I.P ryan dunn aka random hero tattooed on to my leg. Your the man dunn always will be. I love you man
Much love Charlie
I still can’t believe you’re gone. It’s already been 5 months and the thought still hasn’t settled…I remember when I first heard the news. Ryan Dunn. Tragic car accident. Death. I was in shock. I thought “No way… this can’t be true.” I never thought someone like you, one of my heroes… Just gone. My words just come out in pieces. I even heard what happened on the radio that day. They played the song “Close Yet Far” by CKY, as a tribute song. I cried for the next few nights… I was so upset. So sad. I feel so bad this has happened. I wish I could of done something to prevent it. Just something… but in the end, in all truth, I could of done nothing. Nothing at all. But what I can do for you now is just smile. I wish I had that caring, kind, happy-go-lucky smile that you had. The one that would just make everyone around you smile. You had your own glow that would light up the darkest room. I’ve watched the CKY series, All of Jackass and Viva La Bam, so i’ve been a fan since I was about 5 or 6 up until now and so on. So that was probably in 2000 for me. You’ve left us all with some great memories, of your best and worst moments. You showed me how to laugh at myself, to have guts, to be there for my friends…If it weren’t for you and the Jackass/CKY crew, i’d be some block head stuck up girly girl. When I was little, and i seen you guys on tv, I thought you guys were super heroes. Invincible! No matter what happened, you guys were ok in the end…(well, ok eventually. haha) I realized those superheroes were just regular people, which made it pretty cool to know that we all have a super hero inside as well. I wouldn’t be the same person I am today if it weren’t for you guys and I couldn’t of been any happier than I am now. It has always been my dream to meet all of you. But since some things have changed, the least I can do is put flowers on your grave when I get older. Maybe we’ll meet in the after life. I hope Bam, Angie and everyone else is doing ok. You left in a flash. But the memories will never fade. You will live on. A Jackass legend. Rest In Peace Ryan Dunn. A.K.A Random Hero. My hero.
