Careercow Brandon "Bam" Margera - From Jackass to Lolcow

[Tootsie Bear]

From memory that CKY easter egg of Bam fucking Jenn... she had her underwear on. Not in a pulled to the side kinda way, like in an obviously they weren't fucking way.

It's been literally like 15 years since I saw it, but she was just grinding on him with her tits out. And they both were looking at the camera. It smacked of 'sick let's put this shit on CKY'. It felt like she was in on it, and defs probably to deflect from Bam getting it from Ville every other night.

Wasn't Jenn an entire trainwreck too? Like she was quite a bit older than Bam, a single Mom, broke into his house or something when they split?

Yeah, I believe Bam mentioned they had to get a restraining order on her because of that. I wonder what her reaction to Bam today knowing her ex-bf looks like Don Vito with hair.

They follow each other on Instagram, one can only assume it's all water under the bridge.

Holy shit, he aged terribly, and most of it seems to be bloat from drugs and alcohol. I never was into Jackass, but I remember him from one of the THPS games for PS1. I think he was in the third one? He didn't look bad when he was young. Now he looks like an old man even though he's just 41.

Compare him to Ville Valo, who actually looks like a man in his early forties and has aged appropriately (Valo is 44 and this pic was taken last year by a fan):

What a shame.

What a shame.

Agree. I remember watching that documentary on him a few years back where he's basically whining about making some movie with Dunn in it, and April's trying to convince him to do something with all the footage he had recorded before the accident. He looked terrible then, and he looks even worse now.

 

[Drowningman]

If he makes it to 50 that will be a miracle.The man is a self destruction machine.

 

[The I Scream Man]

Unfortunately he’s probably going to kill himself, the question is will it be by accident or not

 

[RomanesEuntDomus]

Bam never grew up, he whines about being forced to follow rules, using words like "rad" unironically, even the rethoric about being forced out of the Jackass movie and whining about making a better one without those pricks is so unbelievably juvenile... and just to top it off, he draws aweful fridge art with his sharpies. He's a guy in his early 40s talking and behaving like he was a teenaged skater boy in the 90s. That's just so fucking sad.

Frankly, I kinda hope he'll stumble over this thread and make an account. The meltdown would be epic.

It's really bad when you think about it. The chances of him getting his shit together are almost zero, meanwhile, the most likely things to happen are either death by accidental OD or suicide - and in the latter case, there's the insanely depressing possibility of Bam going the full faggot route and taking some people with him. Either his wife and son for some fucked up reason or his parents for being mean and not allowing him to piss away his money on drugs. Or he shows up during filming of Jackass 4 and shoots up his former co-stars.

Fuck, this is a horrorcow waiting to happen.

 

[Bassomatic]

Bam's been a hot mess for a long time. He's always been an ass and local lolcow. It's a shame his bro Jess was pretty cool dude, and the old CKY stuff was pretty darn funny to wee basso.

Spoiler: few Bam stories

Met Bam a few times because bro basso was a pro am skater. Bam was good, but never a great skater, he just had that 'tude that sold things and skate image as a person, it's irony Jace was Army and mountain dew Ads as a joke Bam is legit what skater image turned to because his antics.

His brother Jess (drummer of CKY) was local so saw Bam a bunch of times growing up.

The biggest claim to fame was at a skate park in Philly (under I95) was bro saw him practicing in the fall for the later Jackass skit of skating Santa. Bam was well not doing so well on the half pipe and chimped out and yelled at at all of us. He threw his board directly at my bro but was a good 10 feet short.

His parents were pretty cool and I feel real sorry for them

I loved the old CKY VHS, Jackass was ok but it just seemed like a Lowered bar because CKY vids were all handi cam and just bam and buddies being dicks (the knight fight in a 711 was a riot) while Jackass had a production value and budget that really took some of the magic away imho.

 

[Michael_Jordan_Peterson]

I was happy to see he was doing better at one point when he started to get sober or whatever and was skating again. Definitely loved the CKY series as a kid, think a friend still has one of the VHS tapes I actually purchased legitimately and we definitely have some super old camcorder tapes of shopping carts being crashed into bushes. Money + Fame + Drugs is definitely a killer combo. I hope there is some happy ending for this shit, he has a kid, all he has to do is bring it down a notch.

 

[Cool Dog]

He keeps getting fatter and fatter. His head has tripled in size the past decade. He's going to look like Phil but sound/act like Don Vito in a few years.

He looks like he's fucking 50something but is what 40? 41?

What a shame.

Bam's face screams "Graves disease!" to me.
Thyroid disorders an make your eyes bug out in bizarre directions. I know he's on drugs and is an alcoholic, but I'm sure there are other severe health issues going on.

 

[ulsterscotsman]

I don’t even know how April hasn’t disowned him. All the stress he put her through in VLB, Jackass, and I’m sure all the recognition.

She was always a sweet lady, don’t know how she could birth such a piece of shit.

Have you seen the house they live in?

 

[MirnaMinkoff]

Bam is back on his IG rants as of an hour ago. I can’t archive from IG, but I’m sure plenty of ppl are grabbing them.

Not as entertaining as his meltdown last week. Still blaming Jeff Tremaine for stealing his brilliant ideas. He admits tested positive for heroin and that’s why he got kicked. Accuses Knoxville of eating adderall and drinking scotch. Jackass is too Hollywood. Writing stuff in a book in Hot Topic graffiti code so Jackass can’t steal it!

He also has crumbs on his face/stubble and looks gross as fuck.

ETA: look like a wrangler took back control of the IG account from Bam. Now it’s happy photos of the old gang, cute kid pics taken two years ago, etc... they did leave up the “bam army” give me money posts.

Man, Bam is fucked up in the head. But I won't deny a movie where he kills himself by one of his insane stunts will be more entertaining than Jackass 4.

 

[Tramadol]

Or he might be like Artie Lange and just keep on living for some inexplicable reason despite doing pretty much all he can to kill himself with food, drugs, and alcohol. Maybe he's got some Neanderthal DNA.

Artie is one one one lucky man
that hes still even alive
he didnt die when he drank bleach, slit his wrists and stabbed himself in the stomach 9 times with a 13 inch kitchen knife
in that order
in one single suicide attempt

Bam is equivalent to a child star and this makes his current state pretty typical for a child star, except he made more money and for longer than they tended to and he had good parents that actually helped him make money instead of stealing it all.

His big pile of money has actually harmed him in the end. If he had less money and less protective parents he might have hit bottom quicker and now be like Steve-O or Novak now. Instead the money and mom have extended his 30 year adolescence and twenty year long addiction to this pathetic and absurd point.

Bam is also obviously the guy who suicide baits like crazy to get his way and bully/guilt his family. On the first IG meltdown he mentioned they “had” to go to Oceanside because his wife found him googling how to “tie a noose”. So he got kicked off Jackass for using heroin but decided if he moved to California they’d have to let him back on the project. His family was not supportive of the stupid plan so he threatened to kill himself if he didn’t get his way.

 

[Mr._Blonde]

The irony is that Steve-O and some of the Jackass crew got their shit together. I always figure Bam would be the one to get sober first.

Holy fuck, he looks like absolute shit.

Spoiler: ARCHIVE Bam Margera vreaks down...again Saturday 21 Feb 2021

 

[Maureen Ponderosa]

He admits tested positive for heroin and that’s why he got kicked.

I’m pretty sure he said his piss test was “hot for Adderall,” but he’s drunk slurring his words so bad it’s hard to make out.

I hope he does make his movie. At this point just doing a docu where Bam does drugs, spergs, and ends up an hero in the third act would be more entertaining than geezer stunts anyway.

You could be right. I thought he said “hair-ron” ghetto speak for heroin, but then again he also then started talking about Knoxville taking adderall so that fits his “everyone else does it but I’m punished for it” bs narrative...and also since adderall is a legal with a prescription I could see him choosing to cop to it.

Drug addicts will always pretend prescription drugs don’t count and are totally different than those illegal ones.

Personally I’m sure he’s pissed hot for plenty of stuff and has kept drinking.

Whoever wrangled control of his IG back pissed all his followers off by immediately adding 50 photos from months or years ago showing Bam with his buddies (all the ones he’s shit talked for the last week, except for Knoxville) and his kid. (The kid looks at least a year younger in all the posted photos today than his actual age.)

Lame scrub and spin attempt. People are saying their feed has been 90% Bam updates thanks to the flood of new photo uploads, deleting all the meltdown/ psycho shit. Someone should ask who’s been put in charge of it.
