“I can’t do anything where I can get another concussion,” Knoxville said. “[I’m] way over my limit for concussions, but I don’t care about anything else. I just can’t get hit in the head anymore — but a lot of other guys can.”

"Ze human race, ze former hunter, ze former gatherer. A mind made for ze wild trapped in ze modern day. Many find zis modern age of luxury a comfort. But wirh comfort comes malaise.

You are tempting me - you fiend. Haha. Hmm... Or maybe I could watch his Grizzly Man doc again. It's the crazy story of a guy who tried to make friends with wild bears.


Spoiler [CW: concise but graphic]Yes. He ended up getting killed by a bear. And eaten. His girlfriend too.
