R.I.P Evel Knievel

I remember watching him as a kid on the " Wide World of Sports" and I had some of his toys... An American legend.

Hat's off to you Knievel. You were the inspiration for countless kids to try insanities in their front yard.

He probably would have tried Snake River Canyon on a bike instead of that rocket thing! I loved watching him as a kid! Did some poor imitations of him crashing though.
