Life and career
Johnny Knoxville stated on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart that England has just one testicle as a result of a snowboarding accident. This is shown to be true in a scene from Jackass Number Two in which England attaches a leech to his scrotum. He has a daughter (who was claimed to be present during a stunt performed in the first movie, though off-camera) and a son (who appears in a deleted interview scene of Jackass 2.5). As seen in Jackass 3.5, England skateboards during his spare time.
Dave England was once a professional snowboarder and is featured in several of Kingpin Productions' snowboarding videos, including: 'Bulletproof' and 'Back in Black.' He was founder of the snowboarding magazine Skintight Magazine. He once worked as the field editor for Snowboarder Magazine and was the editor of "Blunt" magazine, the sister snowboarding magazine to skateboarding's Big Brother.[1] Dave also appears in the movie Shred, costarring Tom Green. The film, about a snowboarding school run by England's character, was filmed at Big White, a ski resort in Canada.[2]
Role in Jackass
Dave gets involved in stunts and pranks much like the rest of the cast, but he is the first one to get involved in something when fecal matter is involved. Dave proclaimed himself on the Jackass Number Two DVD commentary that he is the "world's first professional shitter", inasmuch as he gets paid to defecate on TV.
He jokingly claims that he is the only proven person in the world that is capable of defecating on command although he finds urinating on command to be difficult.
In one stunt (on Jackass), Dave eats a number of uncooked ingredients that he thinks would be suitable for making an omelette. He then forces himself to become sick by drinking raw eggs. He then proceeds to vomit into a bowl, which he then empties into a pan to fry. Finally, he tucks in very enthusiastically, eating the omelette he has just made.
