Jackass star Steve-O was removed from a Hollywood billboard he taped himself to earlier today. He posted a selfie on Instagram, showing several layers of dark tape covering his body from his armpits to his thighs adhering him to the billboard, which just so happened to be promoting his new project “Gnarly.”

In the Instagram post he wrote "I’m attached to a billboard right now and want to emphasize that a team of real professionals rigged everything safely. There is zero chance of me falling, and it’s important to me that we not waste any valuable city resources on this. I’m happy to just hang out, and really want the world to know about this project I worked so hard on. It’s called Gnarly and, If you’re over 18, check it out at steveo.com! Thanks!"

In the end, the LAFD confirmed that they were at the scene and had to shut down lanes of traffic in order to complete a rescue operation. Steve-O was removed around 11am this morning.
