Bam Margera Responds to His Episode of Investigation Discovery’s ‘The Curious Case of …’

Jackass alum Bam Margera has broken his silence on his episode of Investigation Discovery’s The Curious Case of … docuseries.

“Unbeknownst to us, just like you folk, we were flicking through channels only to find a 24-hour countdown to The Curious Case of … what?” the former stunt performer, 45, said alongside wife Dannii Marie in a video shared to his Instagram on Tuesday, January 14.

“Bam Margera? Britney Spears? My two favorite people,” Dannii added. “However, I was a little confused on who it was really about.”

Bam went on to say that the episode “should have been called The Curious Case of Lima,” referring to his former guardian, tech entrepreneur Lima Jeramovic. He then implied that he doesn’t remember giving consent to participate in the docuseries.

“If I signed off on that, they didn’t blur my face, I don’t remember s–t. I was probably higher than Jiminy Cricket on f–king bath salts in that treatment center on 18 different medications,” he continued.

However, the Viva La Bam star said that he was “glad” to see someone “finally do the research to expose Lima and her f–king nutty behavior.”

The Curious Case of … Bam Margera explored the former pro skateboarder’s controversial guardianship, which was led by Lima, a “Hollywood entrepreneur who was working in the addiction and recovery industry.” She founded the company Aura, which used virtual reality software to treat patients struggling with addiction.

Bam’s family went to Lima for help in 2021 after seeing her work with another addiction patient, Amanda Rabb. The businesswoman became the former reality star’s temporary guardian from June 2021 to July 2023.

After Bam entered his guardianship, Lima placed him in a rehab center, where he received the virtual reality treatment. However, after leaving the center in 2022, Bam continued to struggle with addiction and faced legal issues.

YouTuber BJ Courville, who advocated for Bam’s freedom from the guardianship, spoke out against Lima in videos online and investigated Amanda’s case after discovering that the former Aura patient had died. In a video, Lima read Amanda’s autopsy report and claimed that her cause of death was a seizure disorder — something the woman had allegedly never struggled with prior to receiving her treatment. BJ claimed that she requested the autopsy report and did not see anything about a seizure disorder, with Amanda’s cause of death allegedly listed as “cardiac arrhythmia.”

Aura has ceased operations. Additionally, Lima has filed a libel lawsuit against BJ, which is still pending.

Bam spoke about Amanda’s case in his response video, claiming that Lima had been “faking an autopsy report” on her death. He also spoke out against virtual reality as a form of treatment.

“And making people wear this Aura helmet unlicensed. I put that s–t on, and any drug addict could go into a seizure from that,” Bam said, describing seeing images of a “T-rex trying to eat you” and a “kitty cat drinking milk.”

“So, it’s very confusing,” he added. Bam claimed that he had not had any seizures in his life “until I met Lima,” and then he had “five seizures at 20 minutes a piece only to wake up eight days on life support with a f–king tube down my throat with COVID and pneumonia.”

“So it doesn’t take a science rocket to figure out that that’s not a coincidence,” he continued.

Dannii added that she was “grateful” to see Bam’s story being told and that he got a “happy ending” and is “doing great.” Bam concluded that he was “so happy” that the “terrible part” of his life was over and that he was “saved” by his wife.
