​Bam Margera Reportedly Arrested For DUI – 'After Pulling Over To Chat To Cops'

Bam Margera was reportedly arrested at the weekend for DUI - and essentially handed himself in without meaning to.

He allegedly then pulled over himself and decided to talk to the police, who detected a strong smell of alcohol on him and asked Margera to take a sobriety test, which he failed.

The website also reports that his family and friends are now taking immediate steps to get him help, and are actively seeking out a rehab centre for him.

"We're trying to help him from across the country."

"By the end of the night, I would probably have ten pints worth of it. It was pretty bad. It was weird, because there would be times where I would go on a three-day bender of drinking and then five days of not drinking. When that five days ended, I would go on a two-day bender."

Margera was suffering not only from alcoholism, but also bulimia.

"What happened with me was that I was on the Steve-O tour and we had to do this stunt called the 'Tequila Stuntman'", he explained to Vice.

"You sniff a line of salt, squirt a lime in your eye, and take a shot of tequila and then throw everything up after. There would be like 5,000 people in the audience at time, so I had to learn how to barf on command.

"Once I figured that out, it was all over, because whenever I felt like I ate too much or drank too much, I could just barf instantly on command without even putting my finger down my throat. If it was bread, I couldn't do it, but spaghetti easily. Spaghetti is really easy to throw up on command. Pizzas and subs were harder."
