Sadly they’re probably going to find him OD’d somewhere. Hope he’ll turn himself in and get some help but I have no reason to expect that to happen.

The Jackass guys are smarter than people realize sometimes...cutting ties with Bam was the right call. I don't think there was anything more frustrating than seeing his fans defend and enable him after they kicked him off the movie. |

I think the most tactful thing I can say is we reap what we sow.

Shit, I had no idea he had been arrested twice in March. Alcoholism and mental health issues are a dangerous combination, I really hope he can someday get his shit together.

Steve-O and Johnny Knoxville both at least had some college experience and found lives after Jackass. Knoxville especially has a pretty good niche going as a comedic second or third fiddle.
Bam.. Bam never really seemed to find anything to keep himself busy in any meaningful way, save for maybe Viva La Bam, itself a sort of ripoff of Jackass.

Bam was a pretty decent video editor and he could have just made skate videos and music videos etc his niche once the Jackass stuff dried up, but even on his own stuff he ended up handing it off to Joe Frantz after a while for some reason. |

If being booted from the group that fries their testicles and gets trampled by bulls isn’t a wake-up call…no number of arrests is going to ring that bell.

Yeah, if only he could have been like...I dunno, one of the most popular and influential skateboarders of all time or something. It seriously gets overlooked how massive Bam was in the skating world. Dude is pretty easily the second most popular and well known skater of all time behind Tony Hawk. |

I'm not gonna be shocked if they find him deceased. This whole thing is a tragedy, Bam needs to be locked up at this point rehab hasn't been helping and other measures have been used. If he wasn't famous he wouldve been serving time.

Totally sucks to say, but if it all seems inevitable, I wonder if it will be met with relief and peace from his loved ones. |

Dude is pretty easily the second most popular and well known skater of all time behind Tony Hawk. This is true. He could've made a pretty good living just off of marketing his image, hitting the convention circuit, starting a podcast, etc. He didn't have to keep hurting himself. |

He could've made a pretty good living just off of marketing his image, hitting the convention circuit, starting a podcast, etc. He didn't have to keep hurting himself. Man, dude is only 42. That's 12 years younger than Tony Hawk, who is still out doing skate demos and shit. Hell, Tony Alva is 65 and still out shredding. There is absolutely NO reason that Bam shouldn't still be riding high in the skate world, being rightfully treated as a legend, while actively still skating (not competitively of course). Or for that matter, he could easily be in the same kind of role as Knoxville, one of the elder Jackasses who occasionally does dumb things, but is mostly there to help usher in the new era of idiots. Bam really is a tragic case of the celebrity status and lifestyle becoming more important to him than the things that actually brought him that status. He abandoned skating, Jackass, his friends, his family, his endorsements...all for what? I just don't get it. |
