With an all-star crew of Wade Simmons, Brett Tippie, Richie Schley, Chris Lawrence, Dave Sweetland and more, you can guarantee there’s plenty of wild action to go along with the historical info and bonkers stories. Watch the clip with Brett Tippie above for a taste of what to expect in the film.

The film is due to drop on April 3rd and you can pre-order it here.
