Extreme stunts on tap for MTV

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - MTV has ordered a pair of post-"Jackass" extreme-stunt reality series, each with a format that's been tested.

In "Dudesons in America," four Finnish stuntmen and pranksters whose exploits are well known in Europe will attempt to do "even stupider stunts and pranks" than they performed back home. "Jackass" star Johnny Knoxville is on the executive producing team.

The second series is "MTV's Parkour Challenge," which aired as a one-hour special in October. Parkour is a foot race through a cluttered urban environment in which racers scale obstacles using nothing but their bodies.
