I saw him at a local skateshop when Toy Machine and Zero came for a demo, he was the only one to attempt dropping into a 10 foot vert ramp so poorly built only Tony Hawk had ever dared sk8 it before! This was like 8 years ago, long before jackass, and before anyone but a skateboarder knew who he was (unless you had seen CKY). He was crazy then, he is crazier now, but you cant go cutting the roof of ur lambo, that is sacralige! I dont know if you could say Bam was a millionaire as a pro skater, but he was well off and actually still sk8ed, now he just fucks around! |
Bam made all of his money skating. He's been sponsored since he was 13, then the CKY videos started bringing him in more money, followed by Jackass and Viva. His line of skateboards and clothing isn't hurting anything either.
