You don't have to take any brake off at all.
Particularly if you intend to ride it on the road and in traffic I strongly suggest you leave them both in place.
On full-sized bikes the front brake is the strongest, but with the short wheel base of a BMX, it might make more sense to leave the rear brake in place, if you think you have to pull one off.
No it's pointless unless you have a race bmx which doesn't have a front brake anyway
It depends on the specific BMX bike and its intended use. Generally, a lighter BMX bike around 20-25 pounds is considered more suitable for tricks and jumps, while a heavier bike may be better for durability in street or park riding. Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference and riding style.
To take the brakes off a bike, you typically need to release the brake lever or button on the handlebars. This allows the brake pads to move away from the wheel, allowing it to spin freely.
24lbs is about average, but if you take off the brakes ect. it will make a big difference and take it down to at least 23lbs
Depends on what kind of brakes you have, but about 1-2 lbs less.
There is defiantly money in BMX from sponsor's, competitions etc. But to be able to do this you must be EXTREMELY good at BMX.
you could throw that thing off the roof and it wouldn't break.
To take off a bike tire, first release the brakes if necessary. Then, use a tire lever to pry the edge of the tire away from the rim. Work your way around the tire until it is completely off the rim.
To remove disc brakes on a bike, first, loosen the bolts holding the caliper in place. Then, remove the wheel and rotor. Next, disconnect the brake cable or hydraulic hose from the caliper. Finally, remove the caliper from the bike frame.

If the bike is ever ridden on public streets/in traffic removing brakes is a really bad idea. But if you insist, this is the general instructions on how to do it: Unclamp brake wires from brake arms, remove crimped-on end caps, pull wires out. Follow cable from brake towards handle bar to locate any other place they're connected, undo those too. Unbolt brakes from bike. Pull grips off handlebar and remove brake levers, put grips back on. Removing (parts of) the detangler requires pulling the fork, which is another issue.
To take off a bike tire, first release the brakes if they are connected to the wheel. Then, use a tire lever to pry the tire off the rim. Once one side of the tire is off, pull the inner tube out. Finally, remove the tire completely from the rim.
