He said he wants his buddy on the road with him to see if it’s possible for him to lead a healthy life and find a happy ending.
“I think I can peel back the curtain just a little bit here and share with you guys that the reason I wanted to bring Bam on tour is because I am real f***ing worried about him,” Steve-O told the audience.

“It’s become extremely uncomfortable to be braced for the news of your death, Bam. I’ve been bracing myself for that f***ing awful news and I can’t stand it, man.
“So I wanted you to come on tour, stay close to me, see what’s possible, help you put together an act of your own.”
Bam Margera, 43, recently revealed he almost didn’t make it out alive during his most recent hospitalisation after he suffered multiple seizures and a nasty blood infection.

Opening up on Steve-O’s Wild Ride podcast, sharing just how dire his situation was he said: “Basically, I was pronounced dead on December 8th.”
He said it all started after he got a gnarly case of Covid – his body began to shut down and he had 4 seizures, each one lasting about 10 to 20 minutes.
On the fourth seizure he says he bit his tongue so hard he began swallowing his own infected blood, causing him to get pneumonia and sending him into another seizure.
He recalled waking up in the hospital on the 5th day, not being able to breathe on his own – and was clueless he’d been there for so long.
