Don Vito From Bam Margera Fame Passes Away

(Source) Vincent Margera — the uncle of Bam Margera who appeared in “Jackass” — has died … TMZ has learned. Vincent became famous for pranks he pulled off with Bam on the TV show and later the “Jackass” movies as well as “Viva La Bam”. It’s a double blow for Bam, who lost his best friend and co-star Ryan Dunn, who was killed in a car crash.

Vincent has been struggling with kidney and liver failure for several years. He fell into a coma last month and has been in bad shape ever since.  Bam’s mom tells us, Vincent passed away Sunday at 6:45 AM. Vincent was 59.  RIP.

I’m pretty sure Don Vito got arrested for some fucked up shit a few years back so I’m not going to vouch for him as a human being because by all accounts he was a terrible one. He was everyone’s crazy, drunk, unintelligible uncle if you let that guy be on TV every week. Bad guy but a noteworthy story, everyone watched this show back in the day.
