Jackass star Steve-O was sentenced to 30 days in jail Wednesday for an August stunt in which he climbed to the top of a 100-foot-tall construction crane in Hollywood, lit off fireworks, and dropped an inflatable killer whale with "SeaWorld Sucks" written on it, KTLA reports. According to TMZ, Steve-O pleaded no contest to trespassing and possessing fireworks while having three other charges dismissed. He'll turn himself in to serve his sentence in December. In the meantime, KTLA reports he has to stay 100 yards away from Hollywood. And during three years of probation following his jail stay, he'll need a permit from Los Angeles to perform any pranks or stunts, including "staged fights in public" and "feigned medical emergencies," that could garner an emergency response.
