I'm so uncoordinated, I can't really do that much, so my specialty is standing in one spot or holding on to something, like an exploding rocket or a jetski.
I'm just basking in the glory.
I'm not looking to lose anything. I'm looking to continue making movies.
I don't remember the first stunt I ever did.
A couple days before the stunts, if I'm doing something particularly dangerous, I will go over every worst-case scenario in my head, like this could happen, this could happen, this could happen, this could happen. I try to think about that to where it's ingrained in me.
I have a whole slew of doctors. I can count eight in my phone right now - eight different doctors, all for different parts of my body. I have specialists.
I love the tabloids except for when I'm in 'em.
If someone hits me I consider it a challenge.
A lot of stand-up comedy guys, when they get a little famous, just give up their stand-up career, and it cancels out the thing that set them apart.
I love Louisiana. It's amazing.
Coal mining is tough. Acting is just tedious.
I feel like my eyes have gonorrhea.
But I can still lick the spoon!
Being a complete juvenile delinquent helped me grow up a little.
