    James was the host of the reality TV shows Jesse James Is a Dead Man on Spike TV and Monster Garage on the Discovery Channel, and the focus of the documentary Motorcycle Mania, also on Discovery.

    Jesse James also appeared in the Tony Hawk’s Underground 2 video game and was the focus of a show chronicling some of the customs builds at Austin Speed Shop in his TV series, Jesse James: Outlaw Garage, which ran a shortened single season in 2012 on the Discovery Channel before being canceled.

    Custom motorcycles and cars
    After working as a bodyguard for Danzig, Slayer, and occasionally for other bands such as Soundgarden, James opened West Coast Choppers in his mother’s garage in 1992. James has also built and is racing an off-road Trophy Truck and a Figure-8 race car.

    Television

    In 2000 the Discovery Channel made the documentary Motorcycle Mania, which chronicled James’s everyday life. Following the success of the documentary, the Discovery Channel approached James with an offer to host a new show called Monster Garage where James and a crew of mechanics modified vehicles under a short deadline.

    James later established Payupsucker Productions, under which he produced shows like History of the Chopper, Iraq Confidential with Jesse James, and Green Scream, in which James plans to break the land speed record with an eco-friendly hydrogen car. Through James’s show “History Of The Chopper” there are also glimpses of his involvement with the Hells Angels.

    He also had an appearance on Discovery Channel’s Sons of Guns. He appeared in the second season of Celebrity Apprentice. Each celebrity played to raise money for a favorite charity; James selected to play for the Long Beach Education Foundation.

    Due to his poor performance in raising funds, James was eliminated by Donald Trump on the second-to-last show (ultimately placing 3rd) which aired May 3, 2009.

    Trump repeatedly cited James’s stoic refusal to contact then-wife Bullock to raise funds for the show’s challenges, though other celebrities had no problem tapping high-rolling contacts for cash.
