JACKASS STAR RYAN DUNN CRASHES HIS PORSHE & DIES AT AGE 34!

Ryan Dunn, one of the stars of MTV's "Jackass," was killed in a car accident. He was 34.

The daredevil, known to fans for his gross-out stunts alongside Johnny Knoxville, was in a Porsche that was traveling down Route 322 in West Goshen Township in Pennsylvania around 3 a.m. when it went over a guardrail, crashed into trees and burst into flames.

Both Dunn and an unidentified occupant perished. Pittsburgh radio station 96.1's The Morning Freak Show is reporting Dunn was behind the wheel when the car crashed. NBC Philadelphia is also reporting that Dunn's body was so badly burnt, he had to be identified by his tattoos.

The sad news was confirmed by April Margera, the mother of fellow "Jackass" star Bam Margera, who was a longtime friend of Dunn from before their "Jackass" fame, according to NBC Philadelphia.

Just hours before the crash, Dunn posted a photo of himself and two friends drinking on Twitter. He had just celebrated his birthday on Saturday.

"We're deeply saddened by the passing of a member of the MTV family, Ryan Dunn," the network said in a statement. "Our hearts and thoughts are with his friends and family."
In addition to the "Jackass" show and its four full-length movies, Dunn also cohosted his own stunt series, "Proving Ground" for the G4 Channel, which just premiered on June 14.
