Careercow Brandon "Bam" Margera - From Jackass to Lolcow

[Kulee Baba]

Nothing much going on with Bam, must be staying quiet in the hopes of reconciliation with Jackass. I doubt Bam is attempting as actual sobriety as he posted videos with him hanging with his skateboarder friend Terry Kennedy who by Bam's own claim was getting stoned in Bam's house. Also Bam says he doesn't smoke weed, which I can believe because from personal experience drug addicts who abuse Stimulants tend to not seek pot.

 

[Rogowski]

Yeah most speed addicts can’t mesh well with weed, it fucks with their paranoia and anxiety which is ironic because most would benefit from being able to relax

this happened
it was steveo not bam
process that. he fucked up

 

[Yeeted Teet]

In fairness, for all of his faults I really do think that Bam genuinely cared about Ryan Dunn as a friend, and was sincerely upset when he died.

Many great lolcows have been forged by adversity

Unfortunately, yes.

A few years or so ago I remember reading that Bam was working on a documentary on Dunn, it required Bam going through hours and hours and hours of raw footage from everything from the early CKY days all the way through Jackass and Viva La Bam eras right up to his death.

The amount of raw footage was insane given that prior to Dunn’s death Bam carried a camera with him everywhere he went, and after months of holing himself up in Gothboi Manor - presumably with editing software, a bag of speed, and a pallet of cheap Vodka - he was only able to whittle the footage down to something insane like 20-30 hours of material.

This task he had undertaken became an unhealthy obsession and allegedly he spent months sitting at a desk with his editing equipment chain smoking and drinking, trying to make this perfect tribute to his best friend and as we all know he ultimately failed.

I’m sure I got some of the details wrong here but the basic story is probably close and I think this is what broke his brain completely.

There were clips of it in this documentary about Bam, the first time he was gonna get his act together. It might have been posted in this thread, but it was all about him becoming a wreck and how he was gonna build Ryan Dunn a skate park (this is when it started becoming a meme.)
The clips from the movie were absolutely awful. It's what happens when you get really deep into something like alcohol psychosis. You can see it in some of his Instagram clips where he is listening to really shitty noise music he is trying to make now. When you're out of your mind on drugs and booze you start liking all things chaotic even if they are absolute trash. This is also where people usually decide to get into rapping ironically, like Steve-O.
So basically imagine a teenager makes a documentary and that teenager is into the really surface-level shit about David Lynch and experimental cinema, that's what it looked like.

Here’s bam keeping it classy and not capitalizing on or disgracing his dead friend’s legacy in any way, shape, or form:

Looks like Bam is actually testing out stunts and it looks pretty lame for someone of Bam’s caliber.

I love that on the second link, someone is calling them out for being so safe with that stunt, and how dated it is.

One guy driving, two idiots riding in a truck with cameras and two idiots with selfie sticks running alongside one idiot riding a tricycle in a funny hat with knee pads. So 5 idiots to film one doing a really lame tricycle ride down a slope.

I’m sure it will be so killer once Bam gets a more expensive camera to film such rad stuff.

The best thing for him would be to make him get his ass out of the car and run alongside guys to film stuff so at least he might lose a few pounds.

Speaking of his weight, let's point out some stuff Bam did that clearly didn't age well.

• Mocking his father and his uncle for being fat throughout Viva La Bam.
• Fat Fucks stunts on Jackass where he's wearing a fat suit with someone else. He wouldn't need that suit anymore these days.
• Laughing at a chubby friend on a lost episode of Viva La Bam. The premise of the lost episode was that Ryan Dunn drunkenly boasted that he could totally do a stunt where he gets into a barrel and tossed down a waterfall in Iceland...so the CKY guys actually book a trip to Iceland to do the stunt.

I'm willing to bet Bam has done his fair share of drunken boasting as well, so who knows, maybe he can rehash the premise of that lost episode one day.

I hate to be that guy that just posts a laughing emoji in place of an actual contribution, but And yeah, that's why I said the old Pepperidge Farm Remembers meme when he kept hounding his Dad for being fat only for him to become so himself. Is his brother heavy/fat too? I can't remember.

Also, while he is morphing into his father/uncle, I'd say he looks more like Vito, because until them, Phil's eyes both go in the same direction.

As weird/ugly as Vito looked, he didn't look like a homeless wino and addict that'd immediately have cops called on him once in proximity to any gathering of normie citizens like Bam does now. Bam is currently sub-Vito looks wise, and also on a trajectory to replace him in his family mythology as their blackest sheep and biggest disgrace, sadly enough. I just hope he still has at least one or two true n loyal friends in his everyday life looking out for him and keeping even worse trouble away from his house

I think the reason why Bam's and Vito's eyes are fucked up looking 24/7 (and Phil's isn't) is because Phil isn't a heavy drinker (or can control his alcohol intake).

This is, quite literally, high school shit right here. Honestly maybe even middle school shit I feel like me and my friends did crazier shit than this in high school.

Guys I'm shit and don't know how to archive instagram videos, but Bam just uploaded some dumb shit. Buying a butt plug and massive dong for his wife to go fuck herself etc.

And confronts her on their lack of of a sex life and she rips him a new one about his hygiene before demanding he go back into the sex shop to buy her a magic wand. It's suuuuuuper classy.

I'll screen record it just in case (pls no bully am wamman no tech boss).

Seems like pretty contrived shit, like Bam trying for the wacky MTV domestic realty TV content.

But the three year and half year old is still breast feeding? I was a bit shock a kid that old was running up to mom to aggressively suckle. Then again his wife seems like the type to let a kid breastfeed till he’s ten not because she’s some hippie earth mom, but because it makes her feel needed and the kid far more attached and dependent on her than is healthy.

I worry about that poor kid with attention seeking drugged out head cases for parents.

That's what it looks like. But she looks trashy herself that I bet this is a normal occurrence between them.

He's jealous of how much attention his wife pays to their son, what a pathetic, immature loser.

Guess whoever took control of his IG couldn't keep it out of his hands for long.

The kid is going to have as much trouble quitting the tit, as Bam does quitting the bottle.
