Did you know

The song that Jack Black sings at the party was improvised. Jared Hess admitted he didn't have time to come up with one, Jack quickly replied "Leave it to me, I already got one."

While filming a wrestling scene, Jack Black jumped from the ring and struck his head on a chair. This caused a black eye and a gash above his right eye which needed stitches.

According to Jack Black on his video confessionals, his stuntman/body double Tom had never been a stuntman before. The production was having trouble finding a stuntman in Jack Black's body size, because most stuntmen are "not his shape". Tom was "just some dude" they found that matched his size.
