Is known for his fear of snakes. During a prank war on "Viva la Bam" (2003), Johnny Knoxville tackled Bam and trapped him while Ryan Dunn put a snake on him. Also, in the Jackass Number Two (2006) movie, the cast members tricked Bam by trapping him in a truck with a devenomized cobra. He cries of fear during this scene.

Most episodes of Bam's show had shown him to own both a red 2003 Hummer H2 and a purple Lamborghini Gallardo as well as a Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG with a heartagram on the front instead of the Mercedes-Benz logo. In Season Five, however, showed the H2 being dropped off a cliff by Vincent Margera as revenge for constant torment. The Lamborghini has been modified with help from friend Billy Idol to include a sunroof (a rough rectangle crudely cut with a reciprocating saw). Bam bragged that his was the only vehicle of its kind with a sunroof. Since the end of filming on "Viva la Bam" (2003), Bam has replaced the red H2 with a blue H2. Bam recently purchased a light blue Lamborghini Murciélago Roadster.
