If, for some reason, you were surprised by Jackass star Steve-O's recent hospitalization, this video — taken after he was released from his recent stint in jail — explains so much.

Steve-O, one of the Jackass crazies, has reportedly been placed on suicide watch at a mental health center after threatening to take his own life.

He was taken to the emergency room on Sunday afternoon. After drug tests, he was checked into the Thalians Mental Health Center — known for doing crisis intervention — where he was put on a 72-hour hold. That has since been extended to 14 days.

'Steve is stabilized on meds at this point,' the source told Star. 'He was also treated for burns on his skin as if he had been putting cigarettes out on his own body.'

The situation escalated over the weekend when Steve-O, 33, e-mailed suicide notes to several friends, blaming a broken romance. … But he caused a major scene in the hospital, says one insider.

'Steve started flipping out. He told doctors he wanted to hurt himself badly. He wanted to break every bone in his body one by one.'

A family member revealed that Steve-O suffers from bipolar disorder and is currently "in his extreme mania."

Sounds like Steve needs some Jamie Spears in his life.

HE'S STILL ALIVE? "Jackass star Steve-O will be charged with the felony of possession of a controlled substance. … Steve-O was arrested at 5 a.m. this morning at his apartment after a neighbor called in complaining about vandalism at the apartment building."

Because we know how much you've missed the crotch-smashing, barfy antics of the on-hiatus Jackass crew, here's the stunt responsible for Johnny Knoxville's torn urethra and subsequent bloodied underwear.

After the jump, the potentially NSFW image of Knoxville's gory long johns and his explanation of the injury.

Chris Pontius, one of the guys who brought you quality TV such as Jackass and Wildboyz, harassed the tourists gathering in Times Square yesterday by parading a group of men around in silver thongs. No explanation as to why, but we're assuming it had something to do with the fact that the guy is on drugs and/or completely insane.
