Margera spoke with his longtime “Jackass” collaborator Steve-O for an episode of the “Wild Ride” podcast released this week. The two addressed a health issue they experienced last month.
“Basically, I was pronounced dead on December 8,” Margera recalled. “I didn’t know I had twisted Covid and my body was shutting down. I had four seizures, each lasting 10-20 minutes. In the fourth I bit my tongue so hard it almost fell out. It was so swollen and swollen that it couldn’t get into my mouth. I was drinking infected blood, which also gave me pneumonia.” (Bam Margera Says He Was ‘Pronounced Dead’ After Suffering A Stroke During Covid Battle)
Margera Said He Did Not Remember The Seizure Or What Followed.
“I went to the hospital and had my fifth stroke and then couldn’t breathe without a tube down my throat. I woke up five days later thinking I’d only been there two hours. I spent eight days there,” he said. .
Steve-O Remembered That He Feared Margera Would Lose His Life.
“I’m just thinking, ‘Oh my God. That’s it,'” Steve-O said before joking that Bam’s death would have ruined his comedy tour.
Margera, 43, has battled other health problems over the years, including alcoholism, which has led to her stay in rehab.
