NGL but reviewing jackass and cky footage, it really seems like dunn was just happy to be there
I'd be more than willing to bet he was a bit of a punching bag, and enjoyed a somewhat sycophantic relationship with bam
if you're a guy like bam and that person is taken from you, bad things happen
dunn was just a good guy, in all the old CKY and jackass shit, he's just there for his friends. i think bam legitimately liked him too, if there's any clips of bam maliciously fricking with him (outside throwing shit at him) i haven't seen it
ehren was the punching bag once jackass came around. ehren always talks about the bullying in group, but we all know it was mostly bam doing it.
I've known a lot of people like Bam and It's a very good thing that he's suffering right now and will probably die like that. People like Bam are so inherently selfish and up their own ass that it takes like total ego death for them to change at all. They are next to irredeemable and should be left to rot.
Why do people always say "RIP" (Rest in peace) when Jesus clearly said that only few people would be saved, and majority are on the road that leads to destruction in the lake of fire, where people are tormented in fire day and night, with NO REST or peace??
Jesus said if we look at women with lust, its better to pluck out our eyes and go to heaven blind, then go to hell with all our body parts intact, where the fire is never quenced and the worm dieth not.
you're not supposed to judge whether someone's going to hell or heaven. don't think it, don't speak it.
that's the lesson of the "judge not lest ye be judged" line.
Probably his only real friend on the same level as him. He was left with buttholes like Novak who has been just as much of a piece of trash on or off drugs.
Pissing you off seems pretty easy, if we're being honest. No surprise, there. Inability to regulate one's emotional responses is a characteristic of autism.
Steve-O on Adam Carolla is ten times worse than Bam’s instagram insanity
idk bros, because of the internet, we see a lot more of the ugly stuff bam gets into. i'd argue steve o never did this sort of crazy shit but we'll never know

this is more kino than jackass forever btw, frick you knoxville
Bam was off the rails well before Dunn died. He's white trash to begin with and Jack ass dumped unlimited money into his life. There's almost no other possible outcome than becoming a raging alcoholic. Dunn just happened to die around the same time that Bam's existing issues were becoming more and more visible.
>Jack ass dumped unlimited money into his life
False, Bam was already a millionaire from skating and from the CKY and driving around in a Lamborghini before Jackass even existed. It is true though that Jackass and then Viva La Bam did add fuel to the fire
>this is blatantly not true dude, get off bams dick
I think Bam is a dumb c**t but this is objectively the truth. The skating sponsorships and CKY videos are how he amassed his wealth initially but Jackass is what multiplied it tenfold.
bam turned pro in 98 and jackass dropped in 2000. you really think he earned millions from skate sponsors in a two year period? and this was before Element, so he was getting paid pennies. I think you're really overestimating how much professional skateboarders get paid buddy
Not him, professional skateboarders receive money? I thought that they get paid with free decks and merchandise

Yes. They get paid to film video parts, and to sell pro models. Youre thinking of people on "flow" who just gwr free stuff, or "amateurs" who still appear in videos
don't you ever call me buddy you fricking condescending frick. fact is bam was rich as hell from skating, maybe not a millionaire but his dad managed his money "buddy"
Steve-O confirmed Bam was rich as frick back in the day due to his Element and pro skateboard deals

Dude take your meds, nobody said anything remotely like that anywhere in this thread. You’re beyond delusional
Nobody has sold more pro models than him in history. He has sold more skateboards than tony hawk. Think about that for a second. Also, cky was completely produced in house and bam owned all the rights. They sold A LOT of those tapes in skateshops direct to store. In cky2k hes driving around in an audi s4 and audi a4. That big house he painted blue and turned into a skatepark that they were living in my the time jackass started? Bam ourchased that for his parents with his cky money as a thank you. He grew up poor. Inforget what their mom did but his dad was a baker, hence :i gotta be up at 4 tomorrow bam"
Hes a shithead, but hes one whos made way more money than i probably ever will, and has a big heart. It just seems to have an equally large hole in it, as well. Very sad, and i dont believe he deserves the treatment some friends are giving him. Raab doesnt speak to him. Everyonw abandoned him after he tried to give them the world. Very sad.
>Raab doesnt speak to him.
i don't know where this rumor started from, but raab appears in jackass forever in the same room as bam. someone (probably more autistic than me) found out that if you slow down the footage during his cameo, you can actually see bam. not even joking
?t=192
but i guess whether they were on speaking terms or not is another thing.
Im sure they are now. But i knoe for awhile they did not speak, and he thouggt he "ruined his life"
Of course, this is all second hand gossip. Its still fun to chitchat about tho. My sisters old friend was obsessed and was the onw who told me about raab pooping in his locker lol
This is very much false info. Bam was the lone editor and video producer of CKY, the precursor and only reason there even was a Jackass. Before all his weird personality disorders and drug addictions set in, he was pretty talented on a technical level (how to properly stage and light shots, editing during the pre-1080p era for tape). He was pretty talented on a technical level.
Knoxville and Tremaine were already talking about a stunt tv show of some kind before they saw the CKY videos.
CKY crew added Bams visual style, and Dico's pranks and characters.
it didn't. Dunn broke off contact with Bam long before his death because Bam was already a pathetic drug addict who treated everyone as shit. Bam used Dunn's death as an excuse for his lifestyle.
He wasn't mature enough to process it properly and that combined with his success as an edgy teen skateboarder stunted his growth as a person. He is permanently mentally 17.
do you know how few real friends a man will ever have in his life?
The ones who will actually go "bros before hoes",
end of an era, time to go to bed forever
Addicts will say anything if they think it will get them leeway with the people around them & make using easier
I'm sure Bam got so used to saying "Uhh I'm just drinking this everclear and doing blow at 9 am on a Wednesday because... uh... I'm just really sad okay??" and they would leave him alone
he was clearly an addict and at the worst time became super rich so nothing to stop him, then having that happen gave him an opportunity/excuse to keep using, it sheletered him from criticism bc "well his bff died" instead of growing up and getting sober like the rest of the original guys. He blames all his shit on the Dunn death but it's just a scapegoat. His friend dying bc of drugs/alcohol would have been the exact reason to stop for anyone with character. I've had friends die and it sucks but its really weak and gay to use it as an excuse/opportunity to not change being a weak disgusting piece of shit.

Nah better marry a hooker and do drugs till my brain explodes. Earthrocking till the end.
Bam, being the narcissist that he is, got over him ages ago and only uses fake grief to justify his selfish behavior. I'd bet he was called out for this many times and threw a hiss fit and pretended to cry or something.
I once saw Bam at a restaurant in Delaware. Pretty sure he shit his pants at Grotto's Pizza. It was dripping down his leg as he walked out. I could see it on his shoe. This was back in 2017.
>bam falls into the snake pit >starts freaking out actually having a breakdown >dunn sees and lifts him out >everytime bam fell dunn was always the first one there to see if was okay
bam was a huge douche and one of my least favorite members but their bond was obvious
bam is a chaotic and spiteful dude, his pranks and """jokes"""" were always excessively cruel or violent, and dunn grounded him to a degree. once he was gone, there was really nothing to keep him from going off the rails. the rest of his group either distanced themselves because he was just unpleasent to be around, or were dealing with their own demons, mostly a lot of hard drug problems within the jackass crew, not just steve-0
Hey man why are you smoking meth? >My friend died
Why are you running around country avoiding your family? >My friend died
Why are you drinking till blackout everyday? >My friend died
Why are you singing about sticking your penis up your butt? >My friend died
Why did you marry a convicted felon who pistol whipped her pimp? >My friend died
Why are drinking your own pee? >My friend died
Why are you such a piece shit? >My friend died
Why don't you shower? >My friend died
Wasn't that like 10 years ago? He'd probably want you to move on with your life. >My friend died
sometimes it just isnt that deep. sometimes we just miss our friends, and cant figure out how to stop. a little beautiful, a lot of sad. hard to move on when the bond you had with someone lost, is better than anything you have now. yes, a lot of people get over it. but a lot of people dont. i feel for bam and i want him to be okay. for him, tonight, i earthrock
>have best friend >they're suddenly taken from you in a brutal car crash that was entirely their own fault and could've been avoided if he hadn't been drunk driving
What a mystery.
He'd been living life on hardcore easy mode up until then and never had anything even remotely that serious to deal with before. Add to it that he was already a spoiled manchild made super soft by being told yes all his life and boom the downward spiral into alcoholism began.
I used to really like bam but now he's a frickin joke.

I met Ryan Dunn one time in a bar in Houston w Don Vito. Dunn was really cool and just down to earth. Bought him a few rounds
it's always the good ones that go first
yep. good ones like Dunn pass then tumors like Bam just stick around forever somehow. fricking sucks. They're like wienerroaches
I don't doubt it anon, my summary was mostly getting at the notion that he was a nice guy, maybe too nice.
You've clearly never had a bro anon

He was the only guy that he was openly gay with
Having the same friend since childhood make you gay?
absurdly gay
Only to women.

who fricking cares? stop talking about this homosexual under a hundred layers of irony

He escaped rehab again last night
How can you escape something that's voluntary?

It was court-ordered and very much not voluntary
No
damn, not even Steve-0 (drug addict time) looked like that

this is more kino than jackass forever btw, frick you knoxville
bam actually has a huge heart. on the inside, he's deeply sensitive and emotional.
i wish women were more like bam.
Bam already was fricked up, Dunn just kept him in check.
Bam was off the rails well before Dunn died. He's white trash to begin with and Jack ass dumped unlimited money into his life. There's almost no other possible outcome than becoming a raging alcoholic. Dunn just happened to die around the same time that Bam's existing issues were becoming more and more visible.
this
the world was changing, jackass was fading from the limelight, viva la bam had been off the air for some time
I'd be depressed too tbh

Too bad you’re pretty much just making half of that up but I guess you can make gullible people believe anything if you say it with enough confidence
Steve-O confirmed Bam was rich as frick back in the day due to his Element and pro skateboard deals
Bam is not rich from skateboarding. April's family is wealthy. End of story.

Source it im interested

Didn't the distributors for the CKY videos rip off Bam?
This is very much false info. Bam was the lone editor and video producer of CKY, the precursor and only reason there even was a Jackass.

doesn't mean bam couldn't or wouldn't point to that as an excuse though
He wasn't mature enough to process it properly and that combined with his success as an edgy teen skateboarder stunted his growth as a person. He is permanently mentally 17.
he was already fricked on drugs and booze
was just searching an excuse to do it guilt free
other than that...
EARTHROCKERS RISE !
do you know how few real friends a man will ever have in his life?
The ones who will actually go "bros before hoes",
end of an era, time to go to bed forever
don't blame dunn's death, this is where bam was always going to end up
Fricking this. Dunn’s death was just conveniently timed for Bam to use as the ultimate excuse for a steep decline that had already started years prior
he was always destined to be a loser it's just his excuse probably even to himself
What does it say about me that I don't feel bad for this guy at all?
c'mon bam
it was his fault
Addicts will say anything if they think it will get them leeway with the people around them & make using easier
I'm sure Bam got so used to saying "Uhh I'm just drinking this everclear and doing blow at 9 am on a Wednesday because... uh... I'm just really sad okay??" and they would leave him alone

What a mystery.
He was the one who cut his breaks
I had one close friend and hunting partner go down the shitter on opiates and it was after his best friend drowned in the lake.
Dunn never died , he’s alive in another realm you hillybilly fricks. Bam
Degenerated from years of unlimited pussy , xS hits ya eventually
he's not a musician
He'd been living life on hardcore easy mode up until then and never had anything even remotely that serious to deal with before. Add to it that he was already a spoiled manchild made super soft by being told yes all his life and boom the downward spiral into alcoholism began.
I used to really like bam but now he's a frickin joke.
I think he also knew how easily it could have been him. Morality kinda fricking sucks when you think you are invincible.
he always reminded me of myself which really scares me
You need friends to understand.
