Not in the traditional sense, but Rod and his stepfather do fight each other in a competitive sporting sense and it gets a bit out of hand.

Rod and his stepfather are shown to be fighting a lot. Rod isn't a child, but it's can hurt to watch

A raccoon is run over, it isn’t shown but it’s directly bragged about and you hear it and see the car jump :(

To record how long he can hold his breath, the main character's friend holds his head under water then forgets to check on him. He's okay and coughs out the water.

Rod has mattresses ducttaped him for protection during a stunt. It's consensual and he is still free to move but I get icked about ducttape being used sometimes so jsyk

The protagonist says he feels he has broken bones after a massive fall, but no injury is graphically shown.

No, but a character tells a very graphic story about a fatal fall. It turns out to not be true, but still may be upsetting

Not directly involving the eye, but one character gets a piece of metal cut near his eye.

No parent (or anyone) dies on screen, but the death of the protagonist's father is discussed.

Happens twice. Not graphically, since you don't see or hear it, but it's made abundantly clear that's what's happening.

At the beginning when Andy Sandberg tries to do a stunt with a ramp on his motor bike, he fails hard, smashes into the ramp in a hilarious moment, then v*s graphically, spoiling the funny crash completely. (For emetophobes like me.)

There's a scene where Kevin is looking at two dogs having sex on the computer then lies and says he was doing research for mom. Not really bestiality and just a little weird lol but still

Not officially, but during a kiss scene another character remarks that the (mistakenly) thought the characters in question were siblings.

Nobody is shot or harmed with a gun. However, there is a scene where a gun is used to open up a container in a context where it generally wouldn't be appropriate to carry one. It's played for laughs though.
