Bam Margera Surprised Skaters with Cash

If you were a teenager at the turn of the millennium, Bam Margera was a big part of your life. He was one of the members of the Jackass crew that became superstars on MTV thanks to their willingness to hurt themselves and be total dicks to each other. Hey, people loved it! Bam was one of the standouts, eventually getting his own show (Viva La Bam) and becoming a legit celebrity. Margera had some connections to skateboarding as well, even if he wasn’t the most technically-proficient skater, and showed up in some of the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater games. What’s Bam up to now? Well, recently for a video for the Off the Chains channel he paid a trip to an ATM and got out $4,000 USD. Oh, that wasn’t the whole video. That would be weird. Margera then took that money and went down to Poods Park in Encinitas, California. Thus began an exchange of cash for tricks. Bam’s using some of that Jackass largesse to do good by some California skaters. It was all worth it to get smashed in the face over and over, huh? Check out Bam’s generous spirit in the video above.
