He survived his trademark wild stunts along with some personal struggles. It is of paramount importance that I find separation between me and the persona of Steve-O. Why? We have to go back to the beginning of my journey. I didn't get attention from my parents. My dad was a businessman.

And my mom suffered from alcoholism. Your father would praise you for stunts. Diving headfirst to the baseballs. And he'd give one dollar. I don't think you have to be Sigmund Freud to imagine that had something to do with coming an attention war. That was when I started doing dangerous stunts. I'm Stevo, and this is the fish hook. Why stun? Growing up I felt defective. And the thought was I wasn't gonna live very long. So I was lashing out at death, taunting it. But I lost my mom in two thousand and three and that traumatized me more than anything. out of control broadcasting my downward spiral to two hundred influential people in real time. You were manhandled into a psychwood. Yeah. This was gonna be my legacy having miserably failed at life. And the the toughest thing is that I wanted to make my mom proud.
