Shortly before the legend passed

Robert Craig "Evel" Knievel was an American motorcycle daredevil, this video was done shortly before the legend passed away. Myself I found it hard to watch at times because I can still remimber him from my childhood. The unstopable man! What do you remimber about him?

  • Of course, like most of us I remember the Snake River and Ceasar Palace. But, I also remember the firm yet low key tone of his voice in the interviews he did. I remember the resolution of his gaze when he was on TV. To say he was a coomon man would diminish him, but; yet he was a common man - who did uncommon things. I agree with Vulcman2007 - he did LIVE!

  • I used to wonder how someone could injure themselves that much and still want to try these amazing feats again.

  • This guy was cool to me when I really didn't know what "cool" was.  You're right Simm, it's hard to see someone you looked up to as a kid like this and like alot of guys had the action figure and jumping bike that I ran for years.

  • I remember watching the Snake River canyon jump on TV as a kid. The Fountain at Ceasars in Vegas. I remember being scared that he was dead during both those jumps. He was one of the few Heros I had as a kid. Made Mom/Dad buy me all the Evel Knievel toys too.


    Everyone Dies, not Everyone LIVES! Boy oh boy, did he live!


    Love ya Evel
