[edit] Television show
The first series received mixed reactions, with some people claiming it was just a lacklustre imitation of the American show Jackass, while others, especially those previously offended by Jackass, complained it pushed the boundaries of taste too far out, due to a high content of extreme stunts and strong profanity, as well as full frontal male nudity.
[edit] First series
It all started when Dainton and Pritchard started filming themselves skating and pranking each other, in a collection of bootleg videos called Pritchard vs Dainton. MTV decided to create a television series about these two men and their other two best friends in a show called "Dirty Sanchez", a slang term for a sexual act. Each show features, among the many often controversial and always dangerous stunts, clips of themselves, their families, their friends and their workmates talking about them and their lives.

[edit] Dirty Sanchez' Gumball 3000 2006
The Dirty Sanchez team were featured in the 2006 Gumball 3000, and kept a Blog of their exploits at Profileheaven. In the race, they drove a Nissan 200SX by the name of the Angry Pirate.
[edit] Dirty Sanchez: Stage Show
At the 2004 and 2005 Carling weekend at the Reading and Leeds festivals the Dirty Sanchez team performed a variety of stunts live onstage at the cabaret tent, including being dragged across a sandpapered stage on bare buttocks, and smoking a bong filled with their own urine, and with their own pubic hair instead of tobacco. They also appeared at the Leeds leg of the festival in 2006.
[edit] Dirty Sanchez: The Movie
Dirty Sanchez:The Movie was released on September 22nd, 2006. It is in the format of a world tour [1] and incorporates stunts related to the Seven Deadly Sins. Stunts are on a larger scale and more extreme than stunts shown in the TV show. Stunts included in the film include:
- Pritchard getting a tattoo on his penis saying "I ♥ Dainton"
- Pritchard getting another tattoo on his leg saying "Sleep When You're Dead" in Russian but actually saying "I Love Johnny Knoxville"
- Pritchard believing that he is attempting to beat the World Record for number of paintballs shot at a naked body (102), but the record doesn't actually exist.
- Pancho undergoing liposuction in Bangkok...without anesthetic.
- Dan Joyce consuming results of Pancho's liposuction.
- Pritchard having the end of his little finger on his right hand cut off in Japan with a cigar cutter.
The film also features the first cross over battle between two stunt groups. In their tour of Japan, the Dirty Sanchez team battles the Tokyo Shock Boys to see who is more extreme. In the end the Tokyo Shock Boys refuse to do a live show with Dirty Sanchez due to their disgusting antics.
The DVD of Dirty Sanchez:The Movie was released on 22nd January 2007 by Pathé Distribution Ltd.
[edit] Featured stunts
Unlike Jackass, Dirty Sanchez' stunts are not named and classified, rather they just take place during a program without notice, often catching the viewer by surprise. Stunts on Dirty Sanchez have included:
- "Griptape": Dragging Pritchard's bare buttocks across a strip of grip tape, the sandpaper-like material on top of skateboards, and then drenching them in vinegar and salt.
- "Pancho Abuse": Pancho enjoys drinking copious amounts of alcohol, which more often than not leads to him passing out. When this happens, the other boys are quick to take advantage. So far, they have shaved his eyebrows off, taped his mouth shut and attached two dildos to his hands, inserted many cigarettes into his mouth, nose and ears, shaven a reverse mohican onto his head, superglued his nose shut and turned him into "The Hulk" using green spray paint.
- "Pubic Pizza": Competing against each other by seeing who can collect the most pubic hair from a range of people in a set amount of time, and the loser (the one with the least amount of hair) having to eat a pizza topped with the hair. Joyce failed to turn up and subsequently lost, was forced to eat the hair-covered pizza, and even continued eating after vomiting on it.
- "Beer Enema": A favourite trick of Pritchard's is to have beer or lager poured into his anus through a tube - he then fills a pint glass with the beer from his backside and Joyce drinks it. He throws the beer up again into the glass, before drinking it for a second time. This in turn causes Pancho to vomit his pizza.
- Volunteering to be pelted with golf balls, hockey pucks, footballs and rugby balls from close range.
- Pritchard volunteering to have his bell-end pierced - with slightly bloody consequences. He has since used his Prince Albert piercing for additional shock value by hanging weights and various household objects from it.
- Stripping naked and attempting to buy beer from a cornershop, jumping in front of people, or surprising single male golfers.
- Nailing Pritchard's penis to a plank of wood using a U-shaped nail
- Piercing their ears, tying weights to the earrings and throwing them down cliffs
- Each member running on a treadmill, collecting their sweat into a jar, and then holding hot stones for as long as possible. The loser is the person who drops it first, and must drink the jar of sweat.
- Tying Pancho to the top of a ladder then pushing it over
- Generally abusing Pancho i.e. throwing bricks at his head, clamping a bike lock around his neck and having Joyce swallow the key. He eventually broke free after Joyce excreted the key several days later (the boys left Pancho to find the key for himself inside the toilet bowl).
- Naked paintball
- Pouring paint up their backsides and squirting it out onto a large sheet of paper on the ground.
- Shaving off Pritchard's hair. In the Third series, Pritch specifically asks Dainton not to touch his hair, as he has been growing them for three years and would not accept losing them in three seconds. Despite this warning, Dainton creeped into his room one night and shaved off part of his hair. For the rest of the series, Pritchard is shown with a bald head.
- "Spunk Chops" is an unaired stunt, but is viewable on the first Series DVD. Each member would masturbate for 1 week and collect their sperm. The person with the least amount of sperm at the end of the week would have to take every other members sperm (including their own) and rub it into their face.....Pancho lost.
- Catching clay pigeon shooting targets pritch's head, causing deep cuts to the skull...
- Dangling their testicles over the pockets of a snooker table, to have snooker balls pelted at them at high speed.
