Careercow Brandon "Bam" Margera - From Jackass to Lolcow

Are professionals eligible? Doesn't seem fair.
I'd nominate him just for his sheer commitment to fucking himself over. He's been swirling the bowl for years, but he's really dug deep this last month. Don't deny his antics are on the level as last year's runner ups, at least. Let's at least give him until he tires of playing Junkie of the Urban Jungle before we write him off. He just might take a bullet, and you have to admit no lolcow has done that before.
 
...why do I get the feeling that a confrontation between Bam Margera and the cops will wind up exactly like this?

Agreed. If there's a police confrontation at all, he's not going out like some gunslinging badass. He'll be a blubbering fool wearing a bathrobe like a cape. Let's hope it gets caught on camera.
 
Jess is just rambling his milquetoast Democratic views on Twitter. Confirmed that the Police haven't found Bam yet.

EDIT: Morning tweet from Jess.

Suggests the most likely scenario that Bam found some scummy friends to help stay low. I do wonder how long Bam can stay low.

Didn't Bams drink & drungs problems start when he began to hang out with HiM. Guess he's trying to shift the blame for his own weakness.
Pretty much. That's the sad part. If you look back at old footage Bam is pretty sheltered, and other than doing stupid shit on camera, seemed like a good kid.
 
Now Im curious where the other Jackass guys are now?
Steve-O got clean, became an animal rights activist, and is on podcasts regularly.

Knoxville has brain damage, had an eye pop out of its socket, and split his dick, but seems to be doing relatively well for himself.

The one I never liked was Chris Pontius. The Party Boy bit and him drinking horse jizz were just disgusting.

The more "innocent" stunts were my favorites, like the rocket skates, the High Five, golf course airhorn, the doorbell airbag, or the Electric Avenue.

am trying to not get too optimistic, but considering he was once beat down by a woman in her 60’s for calling her a nigger, the latter seems like a solid possibility
To be fair any fight you've started with a sixty year old is automatically a loss. Even if you beat them up you're still the pathetic loser for picking on the elderly.
Of course, he'd been there before with the riot control bean bag. And you could see the "what the fuck am I doing?" look on his face before it.

Knoxville also nearly got killed on at least one occasion, like the golf cart demolition derby.
Or that giant rocket which explodes out of the side like 3 feet from where he was holding on.

I don't know really, but Ville seems to be doing very well for himself. His past troubles with alcohol and drugs were very much talked about and are in the past but I haven't really read any interview from his current tour to confirm if he has talked about any struggles. Some new songs are good tho, if you are into that genre.
IIRC April put blame on the singer for Bam self esteem issues too, specially regarding weight.
But in the end the one who should change and seek a better path is Bam. Like said before here, many people around him from back in the day are doing fine, with damages but fine. They may have introduced him to the party animal life style but most people should grown out of that and any really positive e influence that could be helping him has been cut out of his life by himself.
Anyway, I look forward for how it is going to end, but I know that the end will go out not with a BAMG but with a whimper.
