Jackass star Bam Margera has posted an eerie tribute to Hulk Hogan from outside the WWE legend’s funeral in Florida.
The wrestling icon’s friends and family gathered on Tuesday for a funeral to commemorate his life following his death last month.
The service is believed to have taken place at Indian Rocks Baptist Church in Largo, Florida.
Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, died from a cardiac arrest on July 24 and was also fighting leukemia at the time of his passing. He had been taken ill at his home in Clearwater, Florida before being pronounced dead in hospital.
Mourners arrived at the church – which is located around seven miles south of his Clearwater home – Tuesday to say their final farewells to the wrestling legend.
One of those was Margera, a stunt performer and skateboarder, and he noticed a cloud pattern above the church in Largo that looked eerily like an image of Hogan performing his iconic pose.
The outline of the clouds resembled Hogan posing with his right bicep curled and his left arm extended, a familiar sight to the millions of wrestling fans who followed his career.
Margera captioned the posted: ‘The cloud outside of Hulk Hogan‘s funeral at Indian Rocks, Fl. Wow! You see what I see?? If this isn’t a sign then I don’t know what is’.
Last month, Margera admitted to having a ‘really rough week’ as he mourned the loss of both Hogan and Ozzy Osbourne. The WWE icon passed away just two days after the Black Sabbath singer died at the age of 76.
Margera, 45, paid emotional tributes to both the late stars on his Instagram page – and further opened up about their ‘shocking’ deaths while talking to TMZ.
‘It’s been a really rough week,’ he told the outlet while joined by his wife Dannii Marie. ‘Especially with the Hogans. My heart goes out to all of them.’
Margera then recalled recently spending the winter down in Florida with Hogan and his family while he ‘skated with the pros.’
The MTV star said he had crossed paths with Hogan one day who was ‘walking around with a cane’ and when he mentioned Marie was a stretch therapist, the wrestler said that was something he needed.
‘So, we pretty much stayed in Florida the whole winter for the Hogans.’
Margera shared memorable moments they had together, including karaoke nights on Mondays which they did ‘all the time.’
Margera got a chance to say a final farewell to Hogan on Tuesday and was among some of the high-profile mourners in Florida.
A hearse carrying Hogan’s coffin pulled up outside the place of worship before eight pallbearers carried him into the church.
The pallbearers paid an emotional tribute to Hogan as they sported yellow roses on the lapels of their black suit jackets – a nod to the bright color the late wrestler famously wore during his career in the ring.
Hogan’s ex-wife Linda, who was married to the wrestler from 1983 to 2009, was seen exiting the service, despite their differences in the months before his death.
Linda, who shares daughter Brooke, 37, and son Nick, 35, with the late Hogan, accused her former husband of being a ‘complete liar’ and ‘sex addict’ in a video back in March. She also claimed their family is ‘in the worst mess’ after Brooke cut both parents out of her life.
Triple H, Kid Rock and Ric Flair were among the notable attendees paying their respects to Bollea and Flair, who himself has been fighting skin cancer recently, paid a heartfelt tribute to his old friend after the service.
‘Even In Heaven, He Sold Out Again,’ Flair, 76, wrote. ‘The Most Beautiful Funeral I’ve Ever Attended! EVERYONE Was There.
‘From Kid Rock to Triple H, to Vince McMahon to Dennis Rodman. The Whole World Showed Up To Pay Respect To The Greatest Of Them All! Rest In Peace Hulkster!’
Hogan’s daughter-in-law, Tana Lea, paid a heartfelt tribute to the father of her husband, Nick.
‘Today was beautiful and I know you have loved having all your favorite people together, celebrating you! We love you big dawg, forever and always,’ she wrote.
According to his death certificate, he is going to be cremated at Pinellas County Forensic Center in Clearwater, though a specific date has not yet been announced for that.
After the service, many of the WWE icon’s friends went to Hogan’s Hangout, a bar in Clearwater that celebrates the wrestler.
President Trump, who Hogan campaigned for at Madison Square Garden last October before the election, did not attend.
But he shared a picture of him arm wrestling his old friend on Instagram and wrote: ‘They are having the “Hulkster’s” funeral today, and I thought everybody would enjoy seeing this picture.’
Hogan’s estranged daughter, Brooke, meanwhile, held a personal tribute to her late dad.
‘My father hated the morbidity of funerals. He didn’t want one,’ Brooke, 37, explained on Instagram Tuesday evening.
‘And although I know people grieve in many ways – and I’m so grateful for all celebrations and events organized to honor him, as his daughter, I had to make my own decision to honor him the best way I knew how…privately…the way that made me feel the closest to him. The only thing missing today was him in is pop up lawn chair watching the waves… and the sunset.’
