Before the body-threatening antics of Jackass came crashing into public consciousness, there was Canadian Ralph Zavadil, aka Captain Video, who cascaded off roofs into snowbanks and jumped off ladders into half-empty swimming pools. Beauty Day is a rambunctious documentary about this irrepressible pioneer of local-access cable shenanigans who entertained and outraged viewers in the small city of St. Catharines, Ontario...that is until one stunt got him kicked off the air for good.
