*IMPORTANT - READ THIS* : This is a fan made documentary. I've listened to and watched over 100+ hours of interviews, I've isolated the soundbites and combined them to create a cohesive story, I’ve added a combination of self-made animations, my own footage, stock footage and archival footage (this latest one farmed from TH-cam) and transformed all the material into something new and different and bigger - like a DJ remixing tunes to create a new song. The goal was to (1) highlight how Steve-O overcame his inner pain (which is often overlooked as less visible than the physical pain he subjects himself to). And (2) making the Steve-O's documentary that didn't exist and I wanted to watch. This is the portrayal of a guy who tried to find happiness in the wrong places and nearly destroyed his life multiple times - but decided to relentlessly work on himself until he could find true peace and happiness. I'm a huge Steve-O's fan and this documentary is purely an act of love. If you enjoyed it, subscribe! I have many more videos on my channel, and many more to make. Final note: all materials in this video are used for educational purposes and fall within the guidelines of fair use. No copyright infringement intended.

One last thing: create the things you want to see in this world. Go write that book. Go play that song. Start that business. Whatever. Not everyone will understand or be interested. Some may even criticise and miss the point entirely. But you're not doing it for them. Those who need it, will find it eventually. But you have to make it first.
I agree 100 percent man i learned alot about him shit i never new more a fan then ever and dude did his thing on that documentary usually i cant watch a full one id watch that again
@@iii978 @III cuz that dog isn't that important In the span of Steve-O's career. This is coming from a fan who has been following and doing deep dives since early internet & big brother. Love the shit out of every every member of Jackass & CKY Vids. I remember asking my mom 2 drive 2 a Mall hours away 2 buy a element deck with the intentions of just getting the new CKY Vid.
I absolutely love that the whole documentary was entirely narrated by Steve O. That is a great thing! It assures you that everything is accurate. I wish many more documentaries were like this!
That's what I love about the (authorised) John Lennon docus too. Like 'Imagine,' 'Gimme Some Thruth,' and 'A Year Of Peace', etc. Or The Beatles Anthology. The FBI doc about Lennon was amazing too, many federal agents decided to tell the truth about his FBI files and the things they (+ the Nixon administration/Immigration) did to him and his wife to get them out of the US.
I just wish Bam would let Steve-O help him. Bam has been struggling for years and the truth is Bam doesn’t want help cuz he’s not ready. But if/when he is, Steve-O will be there for him cuz he’s been there, he’s real, and he cares about his friends.
I hope you get to make everything you’re passionate about, Flavio. Please don’t stop. You’re very talented and this is THE definitive steve o documentary. Much love.
I love that the only thing people love more than seeing Steve-O is seeing Steve-O sober and healthy. I genuinely wish this man the absolute best in the world. He seems like such an authentic and warm person.
Wild that he thought Jackass Two was his peak and the beginning of the end. He’s still relevant today and inspiring millions! I’m inspired to get sober because of him. Love you Steve-O ❤
@@m0rtred totally right, he is truly one of a kind. He has no ego at all and he's good for animals. He's a pure example of a human. Incredible smart but just a human and humans make mistakes and learn from it. Proud of him!
I love that motley crew story. So cool how they gave him the VIP pass and front row seats after finding out the lengths he went to in order to try and talk to his favourite band. Those kinds of thing can change a kids life and set them up for lifelong passions!
you dont know me i dont know you, but that makes me genuinely happy man live the best life you can the world needs you bro much love to you, hope you have a good day
God Bless Knoxville for doing one of the hardest things any friend could ever do for another friend who is beyond lost. Amazing video production, and touching story. Cheers!
This is so extremely well-made and inspiring. Steve-o is such an admirable person, and so are you Flavio De Feo for creating this absolute masterpiece of a movie.
The moment Steve-o was talking about his mom…. My heart hurts hearing that. No one wants their mom to suffer.. she’s proud of who you became Steve. God rest her soul 🙏
This is one of the best biographical documentaries I’ve watched in a long time. The fact that it’s not ‘official’ blows my mind. You have an extremely bright future my guy.
1,013 days sober from alcohol and just a lil over 3 years sober from blow. Had a wild trip and this man among others I credit to helping me get my head outa my backside. Love him lots. The journey is hard but you haven’t gotten this far to just get this far. Keep going!
Thank you so much Steve-O for showcasing your life and how you went from rock bottom to where you are now. You are definitely an inspiration hands down. Being a cancer survivor after being diagnosed with Neuroblastoma Stage II at 11 months old and being in remission after my chemotherapy treatments finished at around age 2-3, I am very thankful that I am still here living. Seeing the look in people's eyes when I tell them I beat my cancer brings such joy. You do the same thing with your story. Thank you for all the laughs and cringe-worthy moments in the Jackass franchise! My respect for you has increased exponentially. Last, but not least, my many thanks to Flavio De Feo for making this documentary. One of the best I've seen.
I'm also a cancer survivor. Stage 4 oligodendroglioma. According to medical science I should have died 6-18 months after the biopsy. However 19 years now and I'm going strong!
This is not only amazing, but truly inspiring. You managed to capture not only Stevo's path TO BECOMING himself, but you portrayed perfectly THE PATH of the ever evolving human experience.
This is, by far and away, the best documentary on Steve-O, or really any celebrity, that I have ever seen. Kept me engaged throughout the entire thing and your edits and production are 10 out 10, how you only have 2.6K subscribers is beyond me but I am glad to add myself to them, keep on doing the superb work man!
In 3rd grade i had to do a presentation about myself. And for the “who is your hero?” Question i said steve-o and i even explained the multiple reasons i found him to be a special person and my teacher just flat out interrupted me and said “are you serious? Steve O is like actually a terrible person and its pretty ridiculous to look up to someone like that” and I was very embarrassed and annoyed i said “how do you know hes such a bad person you never met him” and this being in texas i was sent to the principle for talking back to my teacher but my principle was a reasonable nice lady and she just laughed about what i said and even said she admired how i believed you must first actually know someone in order to judge them so harshly. But my point is i think this documentary clearly shows that Steve O is a great guy to look up to. Hes very talented and has overcome a lot. Hes also ver nice and open minded unlike my ignorant teacher. I watch a lot of his new content and he is such an inspiring guy. Hes so positive about just getting out and living life to the fullest. He saved a dog from another country. Hes awesome. I love this video ive watched it like 4 times
@@josegonza1ez In my 44 years of living on this earth I have learned that judging a book by its cover is a grave mistake. Some of the best people I have met in my life where the exact opposite of what I initially thought they would be like from first meeting them. My best friend who I have known since we were 16 years old is a prime example of that. Your teacher obviously has/had some issues and probably should not of been a educator at all with comments like that. You have to give everyone a chance and sometimes a few chances depending on the situation. Try and treat others like you would like to be treated and just try and be a good person overall. You wrote a great comment and you should definitely send this video to that teacher if you can get a hold of them. Cheers 🍻
His comment about life and living at the end really touched me because before watching this I've been contemplating if life is worth the struggle anymore and that really inspired me. So thank you stevo-o I wish I had a real life mentor like you to help me get through in my life I'm sure it would significantly improve my chances of getting through these hard times in my life with a better success rate than I currently am having. I mean I'm a single mom in my mid 30s living in a mini van in -25 degree weather with no prospects for success.
Things are what we make of it Tini so hang in there. I find keeping an open mind to any posability is key to finding our path and try to injoy every moment of the journey the good the bad all of it.There is a lesson to be learned in it all. Most the time we live in the future or the past and never in the present, and soaking in all of the present moment is we're we find the joy in it all. REMEMBER You are loved unconditionally by a stranger. I'm one of them strangers. 😘🙏✌️
Wow what a story this was man. Happy to hear that you're choosing to turn your life around and sticking to your word with it. Many people try the sober route and it's too tough to stick, but the fact you went through with it and shook off drug addiction AND alcohol. You are one powerful man Steve-O, massive respect 🤘
It's super hard to live the sober life man after so many years of being off the wagon, I've been sober for about a year now, longest year of my life but it might also be the best, never seen things so clearly.
@@JonasofPersia Sobriety is the best high...once you readjust, which it sounds like you did. Things do come along that fulfill some of that explorer in you. (You deserve something special for a year of sobriety so here is to many many more, stay sober for life okay!) In my case this explorers delight arrived this year after 18yrs 4mo of my own sobriety... I found a small stone one day in April this year. I was walking on crutches a staring at the ground. For some reason I felt compelled to pick up a rock, so I did. It was nothing special so I went forward on my crutches and flipped the rock from my fingers while my palm held the crutch. As I came forward and my foot touched down the rock I pitched came to a rest right beside another dark greenish grey rock/stone... This stone had three symbols *=O>* made of a crystal like stone inlaid into the darker stone. After taking a hi-def 4k 12.1 megapixel image of it with my LG Nexus 5X and zooming in... well take look, and as you scroll the down the page you'll see many enlarged micro images of what is in the symbols.It's mind blowing what is on the stone. First of all, a date of 1235 AD! Then pics of ET's, humanoids, advanced mining machinery...you just have to see (link to my Blogspot page below) I soon realized maybe the same [free shareware>]GIMP image filtering software that I used on the stone could be applied to images of clouds, old UFO pics, any pic really. IT WORKED! The coolest part is anyone can do it. And anyone can reverse or reproduce the steps for literal online proof that as bizarre as it, it's real! Enjoy. :-) electronicorgans.blogspot *DOT* com/2021/04/just-found-ii-o-marked-ancient-alien.html
I’m a recovering addict. I really like what he said after he decided to get clean & sober “I am preemptively doing the work to become the person my future partner deserves.”
Fantastic job man - nothing "amateur" about this... Great piece of well-rounded and well-produced work carrying us all the way through the birth, rise, peak, fall, rebirth and full redemption of whom is turning out to truly be one of the greatest media personalities of our time! 🤘
This is, without a doubt, an extremely well-done documentary. I wouldn't have believed it is a fan-made, just from sound bites and random Steve-O footage, if it wasn't for your own pinned comment. Indeed a work of love, as you said yourself. You certainly deserve more subscribers than you have. Cheers from Brazil, props for your awesome work and have a awesome 2022!
Don't know how I came across this today but I watched the whole thing and have to say, well done for making something respectful and responsible and not exploitative. It makes me feel like becoming a better person as well. It's not always easy.
What has come across throughout the Jackass era doesnt at all reflect Steve-O's background and journey. This Doco deserves WAY more visits. Its important to watch for anyone who has assumes who this person is and their journey through ife, its inspiring for anyone at all. Bravo Stevo-O !
My grandmother was like my mom. When she died a shitty, unfair death, I did the same thing: I got wasted. Addiction took me and it took me a few years to get to the bottom. Almost 7 years sober now. I feel his pain because it's my pain, too.
I know how you feel! The way Steve O described his mom's family...100% mine as well so much so that my great grandmas brother OD'd on morphine and the rest were high functioning alcoholics, every single person! They all died before age 65.
I remember when Jackass first came on MTV. Everyone was OBSESSED with it! Everyone I knew watched it relentlessly. Was such a good show for its time! Steve-O is a legend. This documentary was really, really good.
This is incredible. I love the story telling and messages beneath the messages. Steveo is an addict that overcame addiction and became one of the most humble human beings with a great understanding of what needs to be done in life. Well done putting this together.
That was spectacularly well done. I hope Steve-O sees this, he would instantly realize that he HAS become immortal in that sense. He's happy, respected by his fans, lives a good life, and is generally seen by us as something of an elder statesman of the MTV generation, and he has a good message. Not something we would have expected, but we're all glad he REALLY made it.
10/10! What a brilliant celebration of this super gnarly and talented guy. So glad he is sober and still living his life to the max. Loved this documentary thanks!
Less than 10 mins in and this further validated for me that Steve o is the man. He has a emotions. He cares about others more than the world will ever know. He can admit he's fucked up but somehow has proven the world wrong that anyone can be successful and never too late to straight out. Keep trucking bro. Youre an inspiration for me (I'm 28) older AND future generations. Keep be amazing man. Youre doing amazing man. You've come a long long long way!
Dang I cried when he proposed up all the way to the end wtf man I was not watching the video for that... Low blow, I love you man God bless you and I'm so happy for you and your life. Thank you for existing...
God bless you man! You are part of my story man. I was in trouble and dieing as well due to drugs. In 2012 I made a decision to surrender and I'm proud to day that I'm over 10 years clean and sober and just purchased my dream home. I have a wife and 2 beautiful sons and a life beyond my wildest dreams! Thanks man!
I was struggling to feel even the smallest sense joy inside my heart today. But after watching your documentary: NO PAIN IN VAIN - The Shocking Life of Steve-O. Not only did I find joy, but I wrote a letter to my mom. We haven't talked to or written one another in 4-years. Thank you!☺️
for someone who was as absolutely insane, on a COMPLETE path of destruction…. for him to turn his life around and be sober and help people is one of the biggest turn around thrillers ever
I like very much how this is done with bits and pieces of dozens of interviews, pretty much like "Tupac: Resurrection". It's super hard to do this properly, and this guy nailed it.
@@FlavioDeFeo you're welcome, i could not believe that this wasn't an "official" documentary, made alongside Steve o, i was mind blown when I read your comment explaining it!
You are an excellent documentary editor. Thank you for making this, I love Steve-O and find his story to be very inspiring, so I really appreciate the care and attention you put into telling his story in a way that is positive.
Im a recovering addict and man this brought me to tears i think people can relate and learn so much from this nice 1 Steve o live life sometimes we have to hit rock bottom
Okay, another comment because you deserve the interaction for TH-cam’s algorithm.. I just finished it and this was by far the best documentary I have ever seen. Props to you for doing such a good job on this. So impressed on how he has recovered this much
His story, no matter how insane and grandiose.....strikes a lot of chords within people's souls.....a lot of us have felt the same way he has at different points in our lives.....his story is such an important one to tell for today's generation, we can all learn at least one thing from watching this. THANK YOU to the creator
Really very good job Flavio. Skillfully crafted. Far better than the demise and rise doco. You maintain tremendous balance with the narrative and editing. Congratulations ,thankyou and good luck with whatever you choose to pursue next.
This was really well put together and a great watch, I hope you continue making documentaries because this was genuinely good and should have way more views.
This is one of the best documentaries I've ever watched - so well put together and informative. I was so surprised to find out it was fan made rather than an official documentary about his life - has Steve-O seen this? If not, he should be shown it, he would love it I'm sure
I watched the entire thing before i read the comments and HOLY SHIT MY JAW IS ON THE FLOOR I COULDNT BELIEVE THIS WAS A FAN MADE VID. You seriously did such a good job!!!
I am so happy for Steve O, he seems like such an intelligent, eloquent man and the fact he’s still alive after all this, is nothing short of a miracle. The world needs Steve O in it. ❤
Omg what a uplifting documentary! I can relate to his life story so much,and usually that doesn't happen with my type.So thank you for this wonderful piece of work.
I'd like to chime into what everybody says: This is amazing and super impressive. The quality is awesome and without your own comment, I would have never guessed this was a fan-made product, let alone produced without the protagonist involved. You, Sir, really produced a masterpiece and Steve-O must see that - but I'd assume he has.
i'm glad that he still has such a large audience of people who like seeing him do better. it would've been a shame if he lost the opportunity to entertain people because he chose to get clean and calm down
Thank you for this documentary this helps me with my sobriety. I will have 1 year clean and sober on Nov 19 and I started my sobriety journey when I was 44 years old again thank you this makes me feel I can do so much more in my life.
I started watching this thinking there's no way I'm going to finish watching an hour long video. Yet here I am an hour later blown away at how well this was put together. Great job and thank you for sharing it with us all. Incredible work brother wow!
This is a true masterpiece, I’d be blown away if Steve-O didn’t appreciate the quality of this work. If I was him I’d buy this thing from you and put it on my own channel

You have to give everyone a chance and sometimes a few chances depending on the situation. Try and treat others like you would like to be treated and just try and be a good person overall. You wrote a great comment and you should definitely send this video to that teacher if you can get a hold of them. Cheers 🍻
His comment about life and living at the end really touched me because before watching this I've been contemplating if life is worth the struggle anymore and that really inspired me. So thank you stevo-o I wish I had a real life mentor like you to help me get through in my life I'm sure it would significantly improve my chances of getting through these hard times in my life with a better success rate than I currently am having. I mean I'm a single mom in my mid 30s living in a mini van in -25 degree weather with no prospects for success.
Things are what we make of it Tini so hang in there. I find keeping an open mind to any posability is key to finding our path and try to injoy every moment of the journey the good the bad all of it.There is a lesson to be learned in it all. Most the time we live in the future or the past and never in the present, and soaking in all of the present moment is we're we find the joy in it all. REMEMBER You are loved unconditionally by a stranger. I'm one of them strangers. 😘🙏✌️
Sounds like you are pretty badass!!! If someone can fight her way out of this its you!
Wow what a story this was man. Happy to hear that you're choosing to turn your life around and sticking to your word with it. Many people try the sober route and it's too tough to stick, but the fact you went through with it and shook off drug addiction AND alcohol. You are one powerful man Steve-O, massive respect 🤘
It's super hard to live the sober life man after so many years of being off the wagon, I've been sober for about a year now, longest year of my life but it might also be the best, never seen things so clearly.
GOD LOVES YOU BROTHER!
Hope steveo sees this

Sobriety is the best high...once you readjust, which it sounds like you did. Things do come along that fulfill some of that explorer in you. (You deserve something special for a year of sobriety so here is to many many more, stay sober for life okay!) In my case this explorers delight arrived this year after 18yrs 4mo of my own sobriety...
I found a small stone one day in April this year. I was walking on crutches a staring at the ground. For some reason I felt compelled to pick up a rock, so I did. It was nothing special so I went forward on my crutches and flipped the rock from my fingers while my palm held the crutch. As I came forward and my foot touched down the rock I pitched came to a rest right beside another dark greenish grey rock/stone...
This stone had three symbols *=O>* made of a crystal like stone inlaid into the darker stone. After taking a hi-def 4k 12.1 megapixel image of it with my LG Nexus 5X and zooming in... well take look, and as you scroll the down the page you'll see many enlarged micro images of what is in the symbols.It's mind blowing what is on the stone. First of all, a date of 1235 AD! Then pics of ET's, humanoids, advanced mining machinery...you just have to see (link to my Blogspot page below)
I soon realized maybe the same [free shareware>]GIMP image filtering software that I used on the stone could be applied to images of clouds, old UFO pics, any pic really. IT WORKED! The coolest part is anyone can do it. And anyone can reverse or reproduce the steps for literal online proof that as bizarre as it, it's real! Enjoy. :-)

I’m a recovering addict. I really like what he said after he decided to get clean & sober “I am preemptively doing the work to become the person my future partner deserves.”
Such an amazingly positive outlook from insight. Commendable, self love is the best love
Nice work getting clean, only a lucky few manage it in my experience, remember that every day
Same here. I now have my girl and i dont ever look back. Wish you the best husband. Choose carefully
big fucking deal you used to do junk that was bad for you and was killing you,how brave of you to stop
@@famerhacker actually is, so now you look silly
Wow, I cannot believe this is fan made! It was an incredible piece of work!
Fantastic job man - nothing "amateur" about this... Great piece of well-rounded and well-produced work carrying us all the way through the birth, rise, peak, fall, rebirth and full redemption of whom is turning out to truly be one of the greatest media personalities of our time! 🤘
I cried so much at the end .... Absolutely love Steve-O and his life and stories and everything. Thank you for the movie! :)
I'm so happy this was recommended to me. Excellent film, with great editing and a great subject in Steve-O.
Thank you for watching! ✌🏻 I have more cool videos on my channel and many more to come. Subscribe!
This is, without a doubt, an extremely well-done documentary.
I wouldn't have believed it is a fan-made, just from sound bites and random Steve-O footage, if it wasn't for your own pinned comment.
Indeed a work of love, as you said yourself.
You certainly deserve more subscribers than you have. Cheers from Brazil, props for your awesome work and have a awesome 2022!
Don't know how I came across this today but I watched the whole thing and have to say, well done for making something respectful and responsible and not exploitative. It makes me feel like becoming a better person as well. It's not always easy.
What has come across throughout the Jackass era doesnt at all reflect Steve-O's background and journey. This Doco deserves WAY more visits. Its important to watch for anyone who has assumes who this person is and their journey through ife, its inspiring for anyone at all. Bravo Stevo-O !
Thanks for watching!
I’m 10 minutes in and this is the best documentary I’ve seen. I applaud your work.
* standing ovation * .... Brilliant!
I can't believe I watched the whole thing, enjoyed it ALL, and then found out it was fan-made.
Thank you!
My grandmother was like my mom. When she died a shitty, unfair death, I did the same thing: I got wasted. Addiction took me and it took me a few years to get to the bottom. Almost 7 years sober now. I feel his pain because it's my pain, too.
I know how you feel! The way Steve O described his mom's family...100% mine as well so much so that my great grandmas brother OD'd on morphine and the rest were high functioning alcoholics, every single person! They all died before age 65.
i would be incredibly interested to see more documentaries like this, so well done.
I remember when Jackass first came on MTV. Everyone was OBSESSED with it! Everyone I knew watched it relentlessly. Was such a good show for its time! Steve-O is a legend. This documentary was really, really good.
It really was a pop culture phenomenon for a generation
Being on late was just right as would consume a fair few Bevvy'S & get blazed etc with Mates utterly loving this entertaining classic.❤
This is incredible. I love the story telling and messages beneath the messages. Steveo is an addict that overcame addiction and became one of the most humble human beings with a great understanding of what needs to be done in life. Well done putting this together.
That was spectacularly well done. I hope Steve-O sees this, he would instantly realize that he HAS become immortal in that sense. He's happy, respected by his fans, lives a good life, and is generally seen by us as something of an elder statesman of the MTV generation, and he has a good message. Not something we would have expected, but we're all glad he REALLY made it.
Flavio does absolutely masterful work and this is another entry to add to this realization.
Thank you for the support my friend 🙏🏻
This deserves so many more likes! You put his story together perfectly. :)
Thanks man! ✌🏻truly appreciated! Share it to help expand its reach!
Crazy that Steve O and Novak are the 2 sober ones and Bam is out here struggling baaaad! I really hope Bam gets through that healthy and safely.
Dude thank you for making this free. Amazing documentary
WOW Better then any documentary on Netflix!!! Man I love docs and this is up there with any one I've ever seen! 👍🐐
Thanks Phillip, much appreciated ✌🏻
10/10! What a brilliant celebration of this super gnarly and talented guy. So glad he is sober and still living his life to the max. Loved this documentary thanks!
Steve O has gone above and beyond in his chase for immortality he will leave us all behind a story of change and perseverance. Bravo Steve O!
Great job! This is a great documentary.
Less than 10 mins in and this further validated for me that Steve o is the man. He has a emotions. He cares about others more than the world will ever know. He can admit he's fucked up but somehow has proven the world wrong that anyone can be successful and never too late to straight out. Keep trucking bro. Youre an inspiration for me (I'm 28) older AND future generations. Keep be amazing man. Youre doing amazing man. You've come a long long long way!
Dang I cried when he proposed up all the way to the end wtf man I was not watching the video for that... Low blow, I love you man God bless you and I'm so happy for you and your life. Thank you for existing...
Didn't clock on that this was a fan made documentary till the end. had me hooked the whole way. amazing work & documentary
Wow. Never thought I’d get emotional watching a documentary about Steve-O. Wonderful put together, I hope he gets to see it!
Thank you so much for your feedback - it’s truly motivating! Have a great weekend friend!
God bless you man! You are part of my story man. I was in trouble and dieing as well due to drugs. In 2012 I made a decision to surrender and I'm proud to day that I'm over 10 years clean and sober and just purchased my dream home. I have a wife and 2 beautiful sons and a life beyond my wildest dreams! Thanks man!
It's truly a miracle how this man is still alive to this day and thriving. You love to see it. Big up steve-o
An absolute masterpiece! This deserves an award. One of the best things I’ve watched in a long time!! Class production!!!
Thank you!
I was struggling to feel even the smallest sense joy inside my heart today.
But after watching your documentary: NO PAIN IN VAIN - The Shocking Life of Steve-O.
Not only did I find joy, but I wrote a letter to my mom.
We haven't talked to or written one another in 4-years.
Thank you!☺️
This makes me truly happy ❤️ wish you the best!
CHIN UP YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS SHIT GETS BAD BUT YOU ALWAYS GET BACK UP N IM SURE YOUR MUM APPRECIATE THE LETTER
That is beautiful. I'm happy for you!!
Damn man...that's deep. Hopefully y'all start chatting on an everyday basis again my dude.
Take care!!!!🤘🤘🤘
stay strong and positive my brother, things can only get better
Bro...that was an incredibly well-done documentary. I am absolutely blown away that you did this completely on your own. Amazing. Truly amazing.
It's crazy that art is almost always derived from inner pain. Steve-o is a testament to that. Anyone else doing this kind of stuff is just disturbing
for someone who was as absolutely insane, on a COMPLETE path of destruction…. for him to turn his life around and be sober and help people is one of the biggest turn around thrillers ever
This felt like it was 10mins. So so so good. I wonder if SteveO has ever watched it
Thank you!
What a beautiful film. You destroyed this story. Such beautiful edits and a really meaningful telling of the tale. Amazing.
You absolutely right Colin!!
ayyy my favorite investigator, isn't TH-cam a small place after all
couldn't have said it better myself
I like very much how this is done with bits and pieces of dozens of interviews, pretty much like "Tupac: Resurrection". It's super hard to do this properly, and this guy nailed it.
Holy shit man the part about his mom was sad like no matter who’s parents it is but still man it made me tear up
WOW, this is such an amazing piece of art. Thanks for making it Flavio!
- the message in the ending really got me, wow, let's go live life right now!
Thank you so much, this makes me very happy!
@@FlavioDeFeo you're welcome, i could not believe that this wasn't an "official" documentary, made alongside Steve o, i was mind blown when I read your comment explaining it!
@@EiquMiller Same, this guy has natural talent, editing hurts my tiny little shrimp Braine
This documentary is definitely on the “Top shelf” of documentaries….So well done..Thanks..👍🍻
Thank you ✌🏻
DUDE!!! Seriously? This was one of the best Biopic Documentaries I've ever seen! I'm so flabbergasted! Just brilliant man!
Almost cried multiple times throughout this film. Proud of you Steve-O! You're a fucking legend!
You are an excellent documentary editor. Thank you for making this, I love Steve-O and find his story to be very inspiring, so I really appreciate the care and attention you put into telling his story in a way that is positive.
Absolutely one of my favorite docs. Steveo will live on forever. My generation thanks you man. This was well worth the watch. Thanks
Im a recovering addict and man this brought me to tears i think people can relate and learn so much from this nice 1 Steve o live life sometimes we have to hit rock bottom
Okay, another comment because you deserve the interaction for TH-cam’s algorithm..
I just finished it and this was by far the best documentary I have ever seen. Props to you for doing such a good job on this. So impressed on how he has recovered this much
Truly appreciated! Thanks so much man! 🙏🏻
His story, no matter how insane and grandiose.....strikes a lot of chords within people's souls.....a lot of us have felt the same way he has at different points in our lives.....his story is such an important one to tell for today's generation, we can all learn at least one thing from watching this. THANK YOU to the creator
This video should have more views. this is amazing. TH-cam really does us smaller creators wrong...
100% agree
Thank you! Share it with a friend! ❤️
The algorithm is worse lately
It’s gone so corporate in its own way.
This should have come to me way sooner
Wayyyyyy sooner
Good luck
@@FlavioDeFeo
Has dude seen this yeT?
Have you gotten a response?
When I first released this I also shared it on Twitter and IG and I’ve tagged him… no idea if he even saw it 🤷🏻♂️
Yeah they showed this when I was in rehab, I watched it before I went in as well and a few other times😅😅 absolutely amazing thank you
Man this deserves more views.. Is Steve-O even aware of this? 🔥
Thanks man, much appreciated! 🙏🏻
I REALLLY NEVER NEW STEVO WAS SUCH A WISE AND HUMBLE PERSON WHAT A GREAT MAN MONEY NEVER REALLY WAS HIS GOAL
Steve o broke the chain of his mother’s side deviance. He restarted the loop, in a really fucked up but wholesome way. Good ending.
That was a strong fucking looooong insane family gene or whatever he broke through. Pretty tough
By not reproducing, he broke his father's chain as well.
@@ilearncode7365 lol
Really very good job Flavio.
Skillfully crafted.
Far better than the demise and rise doco. You maintain tremendous balance with the narrative and editing.
Congratulations ,thankyou and good luck with whatever you choose to pursue next.
This was really well put together and a great watch, I hope you continue making documentaries because this was genuinely good and should have way more views.
Thanks man! I have more cool videos on my channel (and many more to come). Join us! ✌🏻
Damn…. I got all teary eyed at the end 😭 . What a great film. I adore steve-o and all that he’s overcome. He’s an inspiration to all!
Ps; I wonder if Steve-o has seen this?!? I hope he has 🤍🤍🤍
This is one of the best documentaries I've ever watched - so well put together and informative. I was so surprised to find out it was fan made rather than an official documentary about his life - has Steve-O seen this? If not, he should be shown it, he would love it I'm sure
Thank you for watching
I watched the entire thing before i read the comments and HOLY SHIT MY JAW IS ON THE FLOOR I COULDNT BELIEVE THIS WAS A FAN MADE VID. You seriously did such a good job!!!
I learned so much about Steve-O. I totally see him in a different light.
Yes!
This masterpiece definetely deserves more attention! Thanks for your efforts!
Thank you for watching!
A great watch, hope the algorithm catches on to a great video.
I hope so! Thank you!
It did
I am so happy for Steve O, he seems like such an intelligent, eloquent man and the fact he’s still alive after all this, is nothing short of a miracle. The world needs Steve O in it. ❤
Omg what a uplifting documentary! I can relate to his life story so much,and usually that doesn't happen with my type.So thank you for this wonderful piece of work.
I’m happy to read this, thank you!
I'd like to chime into what everybody says: This is amazing and super impressive. The quality is awesome and without your own comment, I would have never guessed this was a fan-made product, let alone produced without the protagonist involved.
You, Sir, really produced a masterpiece and Steve-O must see that - but I'd assume he has.
Thank you 🙏🏻 truly appreciated!
This was really entertaining. I’m glad Steve-O is happy and treating his body better so he can last a lot longer to entertain all of us
i'm glad that he still has such a large audience of people who like seeing him do better. it would've been a shame if he lost the opportunity to entertain people because he chose to get clean and calm down
Thank you for this documentary this helps me with my sobriety. I will have 1 year clean and sober on Nov 19 and I started my sobriety journey when I was 44 years old again thank you this makes me feel I can do so much more in my life.
This was incredibly made, I thought it was a legitimate documentary.
It is a legit documentary.
@@2woE11even yes but I thought it was made by a production company, not just 1 person.
@@Ethan-rq3og it is
Poor choice of words. The thought that counts though.
@@Ethan-rq3og this is from Netflix
It's 2021. I'm 35. How did never know any of this? Incredible doc. Steve is awesome.
I'm so happy the guy is happy and healthy today.
Right?! I used to watch Jackass when I was in high school but I never knew all of this!
I started watching this thinking there's no way I'm going to finish watching an hour long video. Yet here I am an hour later blown away at how well this was put together. Great job and thank you for sharing it with us all. Incredible work brother wow!
This is a true masterpiece, I’d be blown away if Steve-O didn’t appreciate the quality of this work. If I was him I’d buy this thing from you and put it on my own channel
