Brandon Ralph DiCamillo (born November 15, 1976 in West Chester, Pennsylvania; also known as "Dico") is an American actor, stuntman and screenwriter. He was a founding member of the CKY Crew and rose to fame through appearances in the CKY video series and MTV's Jackass, Viva La Bam and Bam's Unholy Union. DiCamillo is also a comedic voice talent and vocalist with the band Gnarkill. He is referred to as "Dico," "Deek," "D-Cup" and "Bran" on Viva La Bam and Radio Bam. DiCamillo is credited with the idea of "Shopping Carts" and many other stunts from Jackass and the CKY video series, and was writer and art director for Haggard: The Movie. DiCamillo is also well-known for his prank calls and freestyle raps, some of which can be viewed in the CKY movies or on the CKY Vol. 2 CD.
DiCamillo is a compulsive video gamer/video game addict and a suspected aviophobe. Brandon often talks about his love of games on the internet radio show Gamecasa that he became a regular member of in 2007. DiCamillo stated on the show that he "frequents old arcade machine auctions" to add to his collection. On the DVD commentary for Jackass the movie, Bam Margera states that Brandon hates to fly, and doesn't really like to leave his home town of West Chester. On Viva La Bam, he frequently complains about the gang's trips disrupting his gaming. At one point he refused to go to Mexico with the crew, claiming: "All the video games there suck. What am I going to play, Utre Combat? El Street Fight Grande?." In another episode, he got off a plane headed for the Mall of America, refusing to go to a "Mortal Kombat-less mall". He has flown with the crew on several occasions. One of these occasions was on the "lost episode: Iceland" Brandon traveled with the group to Iceland but did not appear in any of the short skits on the plane. When asked in an interview about this, DiCamillo commented "If it's for MTV, I won't fly."[citation needed]
DiCamillo is also a fan of the Calgary Flames ice hockey team and the San Diego Chargers football team. He has worn their jersey on more than one occasion on Viva La Bam, as well as mentioning them various times on Radio Bam.
