The Impractical Jokers LIVE Punishment Special

unnamed
WHO: truTV, Impractical Jokers and Howie Mandel

WHAT: A LIVE televised event hosted by Howie Mandel. Come watch the Impractical Jokers’ EPIC LIVE FIVE STORY HIGH-WIRE WALK. In celebration of truTV’s Impractical Jokers groundbreaking 100th episode, the Jokers (Joe, Sal, Q, and Murr) will take on their most challenging dare yet – an epic high-wire walk five stories in the air above New York City during the show’s first ever live punishment extravaganza. Fans and the public are encouraged to come watch, offer support and enjoy the onsite activities.

The live punishment will have a charitable element as each Joker’s favorite charity: Doctors Without Borders (Sal), Daniel’s Music Foundation (Joe), Make-A-Wish (Murr), and Stephen Siller Foundation (Q) receives a charitable contribution, determined by how far of a distance each Joker walks.

Leading up to the live event, truTV will engage fans via social media by encouraging followers to tweet using #LivePunishment. Fans can tweet their vote for which Joker they think will “walk the farthest,” using #TeamMurr, #TeamJoe, #TeamQ, or #TeamSal. A poll will be featured on-air during the live broadcast, tabulating Twitter votes in real-time, stopping just short of the Impractical Jokers’ high-wire attempts. Follow @truTVJokers for updates.

DJ G Money will provide music on the main stage from 7-11pm leading up to the live broadcast, as well as during commercial breaks. Garrett from Z100’s Elvis Duran and the Morning Show will be hosting on the main stage from 7-9pm, and the Z100 and Power 105 Party Patrol will be passing out swag on-site from the Z100 tent.
