Knoxville is known for sustaining a considerable number of injuries during dangerous stunts over the years.“I knew going into this movie that this was going to be the last time I was going to do big stunts because I’ve got kids and I’ve had so many injuries,” Knoxville told NME. “I feel like I could go out good in this film by being my last with big stunts.
