Johnny Knoxville is speaking out on his blog, after his detainment yesterday at LAX airport, after he was caught with what appeared to be a grenade in his luggage.

Knoxville blogs: "A few days ago, I was filming some commercials for this show we are doing for MTV called Nitro Circus, so I took a bunch of silly props in my carry-on bag to the shoot. Well, when the shoot was over, the wardrobe girl packed my luggage so I could go home and, unbeknownst to me, she packed a FAKE hand grenade (a prop grenade that I'd taken to the shoot) in the front zipper of my luggage. Needless to say, when I was packing to go out of town this morning with my girlfriend and daughter, I didn't see the FAKE grenade in my luggage."

He also notes, "Ah [expletive] was I bummed when I realized what had happened... The cops did their job and verified that it wasn't real. Also, they were cool as they could be to me, considering the situation, and it is no one's fault but my own. I should have checked my [expletive] luggage through and through, but I didn't and now we have this incident."

Knoxville jokes at the end of the post, "P.S. When I saw the bomb-sniffing dog, I thought, "Oh [expletive], I hope I didn't bring any of my films in my backpack!"
