Steve-O found a very -y way to promote his upcoming comedy special in the U.K. — by jumping off the famed London Bridge and into the River Thames.The 49-year-old entertainer took to Instagram on Friday and posted the video which shows a countdown before jumping off the bridge and into the river.

Dressed in an «I [heart] London» and British flag patterned bucket hat and socks, Steve-O took the plunge on Thursday in what he described as «an epic day,» — never mind that he was briefly detained by police before being released.«I was detained by police after doing this jump off the Tower Of London Bridge yesterday, but they were totally cool, and understood that I’m just super excited to be taping my THIRD (and craziest by far) comedy special on Friday, July 14 in London (where I was born!),» he captioned his post. «This incredible photo sequence was shot by @petejobson, and the photo from above was shot by @mikechudley.

What an epic day yesterday was! PS— the video of this is in my stories!»In video he also posted on his Story, Steve-O can be seen talking into a camera promoting his upcoming special just moments before he's placed in the backseat of a cop car.

Prior to the London Bridge stunt, Steve-O also jumped off a double decker bus, again, to promote his special.«I asked for a professional photographer in London to shoot me illegally climbing onto the roof of a big, red double decker bus, and @mikechudley absolutely killed it!
