Bam Margera admits to considering suicide as he begs fans to boycott Jackass 4 in drunken rant: ‘Jackass has put me through hell’
Former Jackass star Bam Margera just shared a troubling video rant where he slammed the prank franchise while also admitting he’d previously been dealing with suicidal thoughts.
Margera, 41, asked fans to boycott the upcoming Jackass 4 movie while accusing the production of controlling his life when he was still involved.
The MTV star, who has long struggled with substance abuse, went on to talk about considering suicide, revealing he went so far as to look up how to tie a noose online.
As Margera starting the clip, which has since been deleted but was captured by TMZ, Bam slurred: ‘Who the f*** cares if I’m drunk as hell or not?’

He later admitted to chugging a glass of wine and seven beers before sharing his rants.
‘Jackass has put me through f***ing hell on f***ing wheels for a year-and-a-half, keeping me in Pennsylvania, I couldn’t leave,’ he went said, claiming he had to take multiple breathalyzer checks per day and had to take urine tests randomly while working on previous Jackass projects.
He also said he was forced to take his antidepressant medication in front of someone from Paramount Pictures ‘every single day.’
