R.I.P. Evel Knievel

The only way to appropriately lay him to rest would be to have his corpse jump the Grand Canyon.

 

RIP Knievel.

 

Alternatively, allow him to jump Snake River Canyon again without the malfunctioning parachute.

 

We all say goodbye to a true showman and the pure definition of a daredevil. Robert Craig Knievel Jr. inspired more children in the 70’s to injury then any other person.

 

He also inspired one of the best toys of the 70’s with the Evel Knivel Stunt Cycle.

Am I the only one who's never heard of him?

Evel Knievel a 'famous' stunt-man. He tried to jump a canyon...I am not sure which one though, maybe the Grand Canyon...no it was Snake River Canyon, ID in 1974, anyways he tryed to do this stunt with a rocket powered motorcycle. He also jumped the fountains in front of Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas, and may other obstacles. He was known to...say 'crash-land' a lot, resulting in many broken bones.
