Before the Jackass 3D film begins, there is a brief introduction involving Beavis and Butt-head, where there is a reference to the 3D technology used in the film. The opening sequence shows all of the cast while they are hit by various objects in slow motion. As most of the stunts in the film were filmed with a camcorder Panthom on a very high speed (1000 frames per second) there is lots of the must-see moments. Jackass 3D, like its predecessors (Jackass: The Movie, Jackass Number Two, Jackass 2.5), has no real plot. It's just a continuation, the most dangerous stunt performed by the characters and jokes are taken from the MTV's Jackass TV series. Among the numbers in the dangerous stunts there is a tether ball, played with a hive full of bees African, a tooth being extracted with a Lamborghini, the use of a special glue to rip off the hairs from the chest and much more. The final stunt showcases Steve-O launched inside a portable toilet using the banjo jumping ropes. The final sequence was made with a technique quite similar to the starting one, but in this case the viewer relates a series of explosions in slow motion and at the end of it, a flood is simulated with the cast that is completely submerged. Just as in the last two films, Rip Taylor makes announcing the end of the film before you see the credits. During the end credits there are some MTV series' scenes TV show are shown accompanying with the old photographs of the cast. Everything ends up with cast members singing Memories, an official single from the Jackass 3D movie.
