Jackass footage releases of comedian choking out Wee-Man in incident that saw her fired

Jackass may be finished, but behind the scenes drama surrounding the film series has been raging online.

Rachel Wolfson, one of the new additions for Jackass Forever who returned for Best and Last, has publicly hit out at Jason ‘Wee-Man’ Acuña.

Wee-Man had said on a podcast that he didn’t feel the new cast members had ‘stepped up’ in the latest film, leading Wolfsen to publicly slam him on X, claiming that he ‘hates women’.

Wolfson however made another wild claim, stating that comedian Natalie Palamides was fired from Jackass Forever after she ‘tackled him’ on set. This has led to footage going viral on the Jackass Reddit which shows her choking Wee-Man out in an incident that he reportedly had her fired over.

John C Reilly previously called out Steve-O over the incident on his podcast, saying: “Natalie came in and she's a really good friend of mine. She's a brilliant clown. Like one of the bravest people I've ever seen on stage ever.”

Reilly claimed that Wee-Man had made rude comments to Natalie and Rachel for ‘sitting around’ whilst the crew were filming a stunt in which the guys were kicked in the genitals, having both been the first women to be added to the cast for a Jackass movie.

The famous actor stated that Acuña ‘said a few more things to Natalie’ who had been told to ‘not take any sh*t’.

The pair reportedly started wrestling as the incident got more heated, with Natalie eventually ‘choking him out’. Reilly claimed that Wee-Man was ‘emasculated’ by the incident, with Johnny Knoxville reportedly egging her on throughout the incident and celebrating it.

Per Reilly, and now Rachel, Natalie was then fired ‘the next day’ after the incident.

After Rachel’s public beef with Wee-Man however, Natalie posted footage of the incident on Instagram with the caption: “My best and last day on Jackass,” and stating she was told 'anything goes on this set'.

The footage lines up with Reilly’s recounting of events, showing her choking out Acuña on the floor as Knoxville eggs her on.

One fan commented saying they hadn’t realised she was in Jackass, leading her to reply: “No lol was not asked back after this day… but you should go see it!”

Rachel showed her support in a comment on the post, saying: “this is what we meant when we said release the files.”

In response to the controversy, Natalie and Rachel have launched a parody of Jackass called ‘Jackpuss’. It’s not 100% clear if the launch is a genuine show they’re producing, or simply a way of mocking the backlash around their Jackass beef, but they have released a GoFundMe which is sitting at just under $4,000 at the time of writing.

The caption of the GoFundMe reads: “Jackass alumni Rachel Wolfson and Natalie Palamides team up to prove women are stupid.”

One of their posts on Instagram shows an all-female crew of comedians setting up their own version of the iconic hand sketch from Jackass, with the caption: “U Ř right. We are doing the exact same thing but w gurls.”
