He also asks fans to send him money using Venmo so he can "blow them out of the water."

Margera said he was fired from the movie for being a "jackass" and implied he was mulling suicide, the outlet reported.

Margera told TMZ, "What's the point of a five million dollar contract that I have to walk on eggshells and jump through your hoops — which is already impossible — to obey if I'm dead?"

On Sunday, May 23, Margera took to Instagram with claims that his Jackass co-stars and friends have treated him poorly.

“My family—Jackass—has betrayed me, rejected me, abandoned me,” Margera said in the new clip.

“Not all of them. I love all of them and they love me back. But specifically Jeff Tremaine and Johnny Knoxville.

"So I feel like my family has fucking done everything horrible to me and made me jump on hoops and walk through eggshells—which is impossible—and strung me along like a fucking puppet to get the $5 million I usually get when I make a movie with them because Jeff Tremaine and CKY has started it," the former Jackass star added.

When did Jackass 4 hit theaters?

Jackass 4 premiered on February 4, 20221.

The initial debut was delayed due to the coronavirus and assorted injuries.

It is now available to stream on Paramount+.

Margera reported that stars Johnny Knoxville and Steve-O were hospitalized on the second day of filming.

The pair were jumping on a full-speed treadmill while wearing “band equipment" when the accident took place.

Jackass was initially a television series that aired for three seasons on MTV.

Feature films followed, including Jackass: The Movie (2002), Jackass Number Two (2006), Jackass 3D (2010) and Jackass 4 (2022).

"Johnny Knoxville and his band of maniacs perform a variety of stunts and gross-out gags on the big screen for the first time," reads the IMDb description for the first movie.

The first film featured Knoxville, Margera, Steve-O, Chris Pontius, Ryan Dunn and many others.

The tv series premiered in 2000 and original episodes aired until 2002.

What did Johnny Knoxville and Steve-O say about Bam?

Fellow stuntman Steve-O responded to Margera's allegations sharing that both Knoxville and Jeff Tremaine previously saved his life. 

“The two people you’re saying wronged you (Knoxville and Tremaine) are the same two people who organized the intervention which saved my life.

"Everyone bent over backwards to get you in the movie, and all you had to do was not get loaded. You’ve continued to get loaded, it’s that simple.

"We all love you every bit as much as we all say we do, but nobody who really loves you can enable you or encourage you to stay sick," Steve-O added, in now-deleted Instagram videos.

In an interview with GQ, Knoxville said the team wants "Bam to be happy and healthy."

“We want Bam to be happy and healthy and get the help he needs,” he told the outlet.

“We tried to push that along. I think that's all I really want to say about it.”

When asked about Margera's recent firing comments, Knoxville said he doesn't want to get into a "public back-and-forth with Bam."

“I just want him to get better,” he added.
