Jason Acuna is Wee Man
Wait a minute. Flinging playing cards at Wee Man’s ass is funny enough. Why did they have to mess with that? The joke was on Wee Man because he volunteered to take the card shots, but he didn’t know they’d hooked up the stool to electric shocks.

“What was crazy was we had been shooting for 12 hours, and they were like, ‘Ok, we’ve had this guy here all day just waiting,’” said Wee Man. “And they were going to get to that, and I was in my hotel room, just waiting to go to sleep. I was like, ‘Let’s just film this bit and get it over with.’ In my head, I would just think he was pretty much like a sharp shooter, getting ready to throw cards under my ass. And there’s a lot of that that got cut out. There was three more tries.”
Preston Lacy had to be monitored for fear he might clue his buddy in on the joke. “Security took me down to the French Quarter, and got me drunk, because they didn’t want me up there throwing him signals and stuff, like something’s going on,” said Lacy. “I would have been like, [pulls ears], like, ‘Come on, something’s going on here.’”
Still, Lacy understands why a prank victim wouldn’t catch on right away. “You don’t think, because you just get caught up in it. At the same time, you’re kind of trying to be funny. So you’re thinking about the next thing you’re going to say. You’re not thinking about exactly what’s going on. You’re thinking about this guy, they did a great just with the card guy, building it up because for weeks they’d be talking about this guy who could throw playing cards through a watermelon, so that started getting in our heads. Jason had the funniest line, ‘When the guy was practicing, he couldn’t hit sh*t. Like, it cracked 10 times in a row.’”
Jackass: Number Two opens on this Friday, September 22nd.
