Jason Shannon Acuña is better known around the world as film and American TV star, actor, host stunt man and skateboarder Wee Man. Having long been known for his part in crazy MTV series and film franchise Jackass, Wee Man is also the host of Fox Sports Net’s skateboarding show 54321. He is also a professional skateboarder and is now based in Los Angeles, despite having been born in Italy with Chilean roots.
Wee Man has appeared in plenty of films in his time, including Grind, Stories of Lost Souls, The Dudesons Movie, lots of Jackass films and things like Elf Man and Feed the Dog.
He has been involved with Jackass since 2001 and his antics include skating as an Oompa-Loompa, kicking himself in the head (a feat accomplished with the aid of his dwarven proportions), dressing as a king while rolling Johnny Knoxville down a staircase in a red carpet, and doing deep-knee bends while holding NBA star Shaquille O’Neal on his back. A truly personable character with real Hollywood appeal, he is a hugely amusing character with some serious skateboarding skills who can light up any event or function, premiere or brand with his whit, charm and natural ease in front of the camera. Says the man himself, “skateboarding is my heart and soul and even if I wasn’t doing TV and Movies I’d still be on a skateboard doing what I love the most.”
