Past sponsors

[edit]

Bam Margera was Sponsored by Converse shoes.He is well known for his Lazer Flip of the 5,000 stairs that Alli Boulala stuck.I've noticed in the section entitled "Skateboarding career" that no one added that Bam was sponsored by Toy Machine. He even had his own part in the "Jump Off of a Building" video which was released around the time of CKY:Landspeed in 1999. In the music video for 96 Quite Bitter Beings a Toy Machine sticker can be clearly found on one the guitars. If you ever seen "Jump Off of a Building" you will also notice that Elissa Steamer( who now rides for Zero Skatebords) and Kerry Getz also appears in this video. Here is a picture of Toy Machine's ex-skaters courtesy of Toy Machine:

I'm not 100% sure but I believe Bam was also sponsered by Volcom around this time as well but I need to do more extentsive research.

Im100% sure he was sponsered by Volcom Batistadx 20:07, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]


This section in particular lacks facts on past sponsers, only having facts for current sponsers he rides for.

Someone should add his old sponsors like fairmans, volcom and toy machine. toy machine was the company where he turned pro on, they helped him a lot getting big in skateboard business. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.253.90.242 (talk) 13:58, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

First spotted Bam in the 1993 skate video "lick" by H-Street . It's a short part. 203.206.38.119 (talk) 05:45, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Jenn drama removed

[edit]

I removed some of the "rumor and drama" concerning Bam's girlfriend which seemed to be largely POV. I don't know enough about it to present it in a NPOV fashion. --Kewp (t) 17:53, 7 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Bold text Alright folks, I have removed this link a few times now..and people still seem to think that this link contributes to Wikipedia for unexplained reasons; here is the rundown:

  1. This link is most probably a copyright violation. Wikipedia doesn't like them.
  2. This link is unencyclopedic. What does this video add to Wikipedia? Nothing. It doesn't contribute in informing the public about Bam Margera, apart from what positions he prefers.
  3. This link violates Wikipedia:Profanity.

This should be more than enough to decide not to include the link. Please do not add it back.SoothingR 18:29, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bams-World.com

[edit]

THis should be a part of the Bam wiki page. Bams-World.com is the largest gallery of bam pics and fans!

Wikipedia is not a place to promote your own personal website. --Liface 05:17, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yea... bams-world should be added to this! --[MINDTRICK]--

Bams-World is great, and should be on the Bam page - SigEpJedi

Add Bams-World to the site! -deadly.poison

It doesn't matter how many of your site's members you can drag out to further your cause. Wikipedia is not a repository for links. Please promote your website through other means. --Liface 22:06, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If Wiki is not for external links, why is there an "External Link" section on wiki articles? I dont think this is about "Promoting a Site" Bams-World.com is an established website, with 60,000+ members and over 1.6 million pageviews a day. This is about The Bam Margera article on wiki, giving those who come to wiki an important website for finding out more about Bam & company. I hope that you are enjoying your power trip on this one.
The links under the external links section relate to things in the article. With an attitude like that, you're not going to get anything accomplished. --Liface 05:56, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your attempt in keeping this page clean of spaming by random websites. However, there is currently a site that clearly is nothing more than just that listed. While we argue a valid site, its a shame that a site promoting illegal recordings of Bam's Radio show is listed. --WEBMASTER Bams-World.com 1 February 2006

I just removed that. Thank you. --Liface 05:55, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

OK, I know that Bam is part Italian, but can someone explain the multiracial reference? There's a link that refers to him as a multiracial American. Is this out of political correctness? Sorry if that sounds a little naive, but I just need to understand where that's coming from. Thanks. EnigmaSoul

Actually, does anyone have a source that he's of significant Italian descent? (I mean a good source, not Wikis or the IMDB) JackO'Lantern 18:40, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Does Magera originate from Mageira, Magira or Mayira in Achaia, Greece? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.131.8.16 (talk) 12:22, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Magera is a Czech family name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.143.58.115 (talk) 16:21, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bam engaged?

[edit]

Anyone have a reliable source for this? One was posted but I scanned the website and didn't see it anywhere. --Liface 23:13, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

The article says that "Margera successfully landed The Loop in Phoenix," where "The Loop" is a hyperlink. It should not be a hyperlink because the (disambiguation) article on "The Loop" does not actually describe what "The Loop" is.

Fixed. --Liface 22:28, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation help

[edit]

I notice that the "other enterprises" section links to the element disambiguation page. I am guessing it should go to Element Skateboards which I've done. If it's wrong, please correct and accept my apologies. LeeG 00:51, 18 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cramp The Stupid

[edit]

Cramp The Stupid (CTS) is a stunt group from southern Indiana who Bam helped influence. Gary Graves and Sam Miller started this group in 2009 after performing a few stunts with Margera in the course of a couple years. The group is just now starting to spread their wings and fly, and we are sure to see a lot more of Bam in the upcoming CTS project. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vyringe (talk • contribs) 04:11, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

His Birthday??

[edit]

An anonymous user added this under the "education" topic...I place it here on the slim chance that there is any value in it.

"Bam was born in 1980 not 1979 case his parents recently said in a VIVA LA BAM episode "How old is he turning?" Phil said"Well, I think he's turning 25. "His mother then said" No, that's right he's turning 26."

The poster may or may not have been aware that this program could have been pre-recorded, or tht Bam's Mom may have been mistaken... Bustter 20:51, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Which episode does april say that because those episodes were filmed in 2004/5?, online_novak

[edit]

This show is copyrighted and the link to it should be removed. I don't want to do it until someone else that is more familiar agrees though, I have never edited this page before.

Error

[edit]

What is wrong with the section about The Loop? "In the January of 2005"?? I'm editing that.Schprunkel 13:17, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it. Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed. I'm putting this message here, on this talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy. In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material that violates someones copyright. If you are not sure if the link on this article should be removed or you would like to help spread this message contact us on this page. Thanks, ---J.S (t|c) 03:32, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Heartagram

[edit]

It says Bam helped develop the heartagram, this isn't true - the symbol was drawn several years before Ville Valo had even met Bam, someone ought to change it.

You're right. I changed it. Ocatecir 18:45, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Picture

[edit]

Imo it's not appropriate to have a big "Element" logo on the picture identifying Bam. WP:NOT for free advertising. Deizio talk 14:12, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The copyright information seems to be false as well. I have recommended the picture for deletion: [1]. Ocatecir 19:19, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Missy Page

[edit]

I *attempted* to make a wikipage about Missy. I can't add it though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melissa_rothstein

Well how much info. did you put on the Missy page? Claytex 23:10, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
A missy page was created in the past and was deleted by a vote. Missy is NOT notable, please do not create pages for the sake of creating pages. Please review Wikipedia:Notability Ocatecir 23:46, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And a page for his xfiance IS notable?

As evidenced by her appearance in various news reports, movies and a multi-season television series. Missy was a suporting character in one series, and as any notability she has would derive from Bam's Unholy Union alone it is perfectly reasonable to present any relevant biographical information about her there. If you want to create a Missy page I recommend posting any sources you wish to use to establish her notabilityper WP:BIO here for discussion. Nobody is against Missy having a page, just against her having a page that doesn't demonstrably pass WP notability criteria. Deiz talk 08:02, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
A "supporting charcter"?! Huh. And here I was thinking Bam's Unholy Union was about the BOTH of them getting married. If having your own reality show doesn't warrant "notability", then what do you have to do nowadays to be considered famous? Riddle me that, Batman.

222.154.13.163 09:23, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Read WP:BIO, Robin. Deiz talk 13:20, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Revamp

[edit]

I've given the article a long-put-off revamp.. theres not really a lot more to say about the various projects as they all have their own articles, so please discuss any changes here before duplicating information held elsewhere.. I've brought in a few more items and references, as a member of WikiProject Biography, imo this could get up to at least a B class article if the improvement continues. Deizio talk 00:13, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nice job. Ocatecir 01:25, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fan Suicide

[edit]

That section should be removed. It is innapropriate and lacks ALOT of information. Have some respect for the dead and it has nothing to do with Bam other then she was a fan that ended up dead. Also it has not been released if it was suicide or not so you can not label it a possible suicide when foul play could have been involved.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.168.145.39 (talk) 01:53, 7 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]

You may address this comment to the editorial staff of The Philadelphia Enquirer and the office of the Chester County Coroner, from where this was sourced. The coroner went so far as to call it a "likely" suicide. Please read attached sources and also get a feel for Wikipedia before questioning content. Deizio talk 02:07, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Still, what exactly does it have to do with Margera? The source does not say what exactly she was trying to do in Westchester. I do not believe this very encyclopedic, it adds nothing to the description of who Bam is. The association with Margera is loose at best. It is more a coincidence at this point. Should it be revealed that Bam somehow had a role in the story, then maybe it could be included. I vote the section be removed. Ocatecir 03:22, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It seems you've gone one stage further than voting ;). Sure, it's not directly about Bam, but is included to establish the regard he is held in by fans. If it verified that she went to WC purely on account of her being infatuated with Bam and killed herself, established eg by a suicide note, it would be absolutely fine to report this here. As the link is not certain, I won't reinclude the piece. Deizio talk 04:03, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Music Videos

[edit]

I think we should start up a section on the videos Bam directed. Most music video directors (ex. Lance Bangs, Spike Jonze etc.) have their videography on there and Bam should too cause he directed alot of videos over the past years. Nocarsgo 02:21, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Already there, feel free to expand: Bam Margera#Other projects. —Ocatecir Talk 05:19, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Fake Snake

[edit]

At the end of episode 5: Flipping the Christmas Bird of Bam's Unholy Union, there is a package from Ryan Dunn that sparks a reaction from Bam. In the trivia section it mentions that Bam is afraid of snakes. It also mentioned that Ryan Dunn sent him a live snake. This is not true. The snake was set up in the package so when Bam opened the flap, the snake would appear to "jump out at him." The final shot clearly shows that this is a rubber toy snake. I've had to change this section twice. Kjhstuph 08:37, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Stunts and injuries

[edit]

Is there any sourceable list of his largest stunts, and worst injuries from stunts and skating? --Ifrit 06:43, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For about the last four topics posted here, I would recommend visiting the Bam Margera message board. bamargera.com people. It has most of the info you're after and WHOLE THREADS dedicated to some of these topics...Imagine that???

222.154.13.163 09:26, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

People are looking for reliable sources to verify encyclopedic information. If someone is interested enough in Bam to be editing his Wikipedia article, there's a fair chance they're aware of the existence of forums and message boards. The board has tons of stuff related to Bam, but it's not acceptable as a reference. Deiz talk 10:18, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bam's new movie

[edit]

Guys the new movie is called Minghags. Batistadx 20:06, 8 May 2007 (UTC) exactly, it's no longer KAMAGA or "Ming Hags", just "minghags" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kjacket0 (talk • contribs) 02:38, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Skateboarding Career

[edit]

At what age/when did he start skateboarding/go pro, etc? Is there anyone with that information out there? I think that would be a good addition to the page. 172.192.152.229 (talk) 20:26, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

He really never "went pro" in the sence of competing at the top level, he can be considered "pro" because he got sponsored by skateboarding companies after he was already famous. He's obviously known as a good skater, but it's not a huge reason for his fame or notability. Deiz talk 06:47, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reference

[edit]

Does a Myspace bulletin count as a reliable reference even if it was posted by a reliable source?RaptorX (talk) 19:56, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unlikely. Explain more? Deiz talk 22:45, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well in a recent Myspace by Mike Busey, a friend of Bam's and Don Vito's, it stated that the new bar Bam is opening was called 'The Note'. I was going to amend the article accordingly but then wasnt sure if the bulletin is classed as realiable?RaptorX (talk) 16:22, 15 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"the Note" is open.

[edit]

Bam's bar "the note" is open already. I played there with a band last Saturday. Don't know if that should be in the article.

Interview to add

[edit]

This. Seems like a decent source if an editor wants to add it to the article. ZeaLitY [ DREAM - REFLECT ] 23:00, 2 July 2009 (UTC) Bam Margera has said that himself and Missy are seeing a councelor to save their marriage and so far its working.[reply]

ERROR: 5 seasons in only 2 years?

[edit]

The article says "The show ran for 5 seasons between 2003-2005 and followed Margera and his crew as they performed various stunts and missions." Either this is an error, or the meaning of television season has changed while I was watching youtube. ;-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.37.153.192 (talk) 01:56, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A 'season' does not necessarily occur once a year, some shows air a few seasons in one calendar year, so it's not a mistake. raseaCtalk to me 18:36, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Possible Overdose

[edit]

TMZ is reporting a possible overdose. [3] AcePuppy (talk) 14:03, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why isn't this in the article? It's all over the news.[5][6][7]

New shows- ‘Nitro Circus’ and school

[edit]

His new shows ‘Nitro Circus’[8] and headed 'back to school'[9] need to be added.

Also the article needs to be restructured. We don't need a heading for one sentence repeated five times for each show.

Margera assaulted/knocked out by another girl

[edit]

The article needs updated to include breaking news about another assault.

According to TMZ:

"Bam tells TMZ ... he was at the SXSW festival late Thursday night, walking through a crowd of a bunch of drunks... Bam says the woman's friend punched him in the face and the two began fighting. Bam fell to the ground and the woman then delivered the knockout blow. Bam was out for 7 minutes." LINK

Then Margera sent TMZ a photo of the damages ("Bam snapped this pic for us so we could get a look at his black eye") here — Preceding unsigned comment added by Assdamingto (talk • contribs) 17:08, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Reaction to the death of Ryan Dunn section

[edit]

I honestly feel one should be added because it has quite a heavy impact on him and even after 9 days of crying he is barley functioning and doesn't seem like a normal person anymore.

I don;t think it's necessary. A small part of Margera's life, not worthy of it's own section, barely even a mention if you ask me. raseaCtalk to me 19:32, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There is no source for the divorce. The only source claims that it has been posted by missy on twitter. While she did in fact NOT have a twitter account. And it has also been posted by a friend of them that she does not have a twitter account, and the account which posted it was fake. https://twitter.com/RYANGEE_photo/status/264421211537285120. If the only sources we have for the divorce are sites that cite fake twitter accounts, we should remove this information from the article. --95.88.113.12 (talk) 02:04, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done It is sourced to a reliable source in the article, and there is also [10], and [11] among others. Do you have a reliable source that indicates they are still married? STATic message me! 03:01, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Both sources are NOT reliable. They cite a Tweet that was NOT done by her as the Account in question is not her account to begin with ! I don't need a source that something did not happen, when you don't got any reliable source that it did happen. Check the link i provided above, this photographer actually knows her personally. Using Perezhilton as a source ? The guy who also fakes pictures and says they are real? And the second site you quoted here doesn't say anything about that subject, but i have seen the other source in the article, which also just cites that Tweet from Missy that was not done by her. --95.88.113.12 (talk) 03:54, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I now see it just says they were separated. Either way Toronto Star is definitely a reliable source by any standard. All you need is reliable source or something indicating they are still married, or were reported to still be married in 2013. Then the content can be removed. STATic message me! 04:44, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Have you really read the toronto sun article ?
"Missy Rothstein took to Twitter.com to herald the end of the union on Friday, writing, "official Divorced happy Finally Free…. who wanna (sic) come to my Divorce Party haha."" They also only cite the tweet from that fake account as a source. There is not a single reliable source or official statement that they got legally divorced. And until then, the info that they divorced on november 2012 should be removed. Or it should at least be stated in the article that there is not a single reliable source for that information --95.88.113.12 (talk) 14:08, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Well look at this, [12] [13] reports from a reliable sources that Bam is going to marry his current girlfriend and he divorced Missy in 2012. Now there is now way it is getting removed, I am going to add the new information to the article now. And please stop changing the template, I already took the time to respond. STATic message me! 15:47, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Request November 21, 2013

[edit]

Margera was previously engaged to Jenn Rivell, a divorced single mother. Rivell played a prominent part in several of his projects and the couple appeared to be co-habiting in various episodes of Viva La Bam. However, the relationship ended in 2005.[1] In November 2006, Margera filed for "Protection From Abuse" from Rivell after she allegedly broke into his house.[1] Bassba311 (talk) 04:23, 22 November 2013 (UTC) In the above section, there is no reason for "co-habiting" to be hyphenated. It should just be "cohabited".[reply]

Done. Thanks. --Stfg (talk) 10:06, 22 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

New residence?

[edit]

I think it's noteworthy that in a recent interview[14], April Margera noted that Bam no longer resides at "Castle Bam" and has relocated to a new home. I'm assuming he still owns the "Castle Bam" property but no longer uses it his residence. Perhaps we should note the change that says he currently lives there, which is against WP:RELTIME in its use of the word "currently" anyway, and make a note that it was a former residence, while of course still respecting his privacy by not revealing an exact location of his new home, assuming anybody knows that anyway. Just a thought. Any input? NJZombie (talk) 07:40, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Death

[edit]

Bam Margera has passed on January 6th 2023 24.124.76.96 (talk) 23:05, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Uh...no. On January 6th he said on a podcast episode that last month while in the hospital with severe Covid-19 he had a series of seizures and "basically pronounced dead" on December 8th - on further examination of the interview that is an exaggerated way of saying they did not think they would be able to successfully extubate him. But he is very much alive and out of the hospital. I would advise you to actually read the stories behind headlines rather than worry about rushing to be the first to add information to Wikipedia. -DavidSSabb (talk) 13:40, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Do you have a particular image in mind? If so, make sure it meets WP:Image Use Policy criteria, follow instructions for uploading it, and reopen the request then.

@Plopafeetch2, such photos can be found online, but Wikipedia isn't going to purchase the rights. Free only, until he dies or moves to Mars without Ryan; then the rules change to WP:Fair use.--Quisqualis (talk) 03:51, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Middle name.

[edit]

Bam's middle name was removed from this page a while back, due to it not having a source. However, the source on Jeff Tremaine's page showing that his name is Jeffrey Tremaine, also shows that Bam's middle name is, in fact, Cole. If it's considered a reliable source on Jeff's page, then it should be one for Bam's page as well. As such, it should be added back to the page, with that as the source.
