Steve-O pranks SeaWorld to show his hatred for them

Jackass star Steve-O really hates SeaWorld and decided he needed to perform an elaborate prank in order to highlight his point.

Explaining to thedodo.com Steve-O felt he needed to take a stand after seeing the film Blackfish.

“I have a pretty passionate stance against animal cruelty, as everyone knows.”

“But I want to be really clear here too - when I go on tour to various locations, one of first things I think of is what kinds of trouble can I get to, to shake things up and get some news. This worked out so great. I could kill two birds with one stone: bring attention to the cause I believe in, and bring attention to myself,” said the movie star.

“It’s magical if I can take a wild and crazy stunt and do some good. Here I am setting out to entertain people and then I can do something to make a difference.”

It takes him a few goes to scale the road sign and as always with Steve-O there is a few painful falls, but the funny man achieves his goal in the end.
