Jump the Gut (GORILLA BITEZ #000475) is the third G-Bite short according to its production number. It was featured on the Phase One: Celebrity Take Down DVD compilation and the Tomorrow Comes Today DVD single.
Plot
2-D attempts to jump over Russel's gut on a tricycle using a ramp while Noodle and Del place bets on whether he will clear it. Unfortunately, 2-D fails, waking Russel up and sucking Del back into him, meaning that Noodle, who lost the bet, takes all the money anyway. In the end, Russel threatens to jump on 2D the next time he tries something like that.

Transcript
[A ramp has been set up next to Russel, who is sleeping in the road. 2-D is building up speed on his bike, preparing to jump over Russel]
[Noodle and Del are standing by the ramp, placing bets on whether or not 2-D will clear Russel's stomach with Noodle's tricycle]
Del: When he lets go of that brake, man, it's gonna be like Evel KnievelW's stunt bike plowing through a whole platoon of two-inch plastic German ground troops.
Noodle (in Japanese): Ok Del, I’ll see your one thousand... and raise you five hundred. (よっしゃ、一千から五百上げて…どうだーデル？, Yossha, issen kara go-hyaku agete...dôdâ deru?)
Del: Yeah, that's one bet you gonna lose.
[Cut to Russel snoring, located 5-6 inches from the ramp. While sleeping, he scratches his crotch area.]
[2-D releases the brakes on the bike and goes pelting towards the ramp]
Del: He’s never gonna clear that gut! Russel's been taxing catering all day and has come in way over weight!
[2-D flies off the ramp, the scene freezes as we view the scene from several different angles]
[Noodle screams]
Del: Whoa!
[2-D lands directly on Russel's stomach, waking Russel up and crashing his bike as it bounces off Russel]
Russel: Oof!
Del: Whoooooooa!
[Del is sucked back into Russel, sending all his money flying. Noodle gleefully jumps to catch it]
[A very angry Russel stomps over to 2-D, who's lying on the ground, and grabs him by his collar]
Russel: If you keep doing this, man, I’m gonna be jumping YOU next time you asleep and I don’t think neither of us go'n make it. You dig?
[A speech bubble containing fecal matter appears, implying that 2-D swore (possibly using the words "crap" or "shit"), but his mouth does not move]
