| | Posted: | | | | The original "X-gamer" and he didn't even know it. As a kid I enjoyed the Wide World of Sports specials where he did many of his jumps. Of course we recreated them with out bikes and a pile of dirt afterward  I just don't understand why this community always seems to have someone crackin wise in an obituary type thread. Make your jokes somewhere else.  |

| | Posted: | | | | I had an Evel Knievel figure and rocket modeled after what he used for the Snake River Canyon attempt. I remember hearing on the radio that he didn't make it across that day. Rick, we did stuff with our bikes in his honor as well.  RIP Evel. | | | ...James

Je**s Ch***t, do you have to troll every thread? Grendell: WRONG. The troll was Rick. At least acuse the correct person for a CHANGE. Hearing it on the radio?, James. I watched it on ABC Wide of World of Sports with the inimitable Howard Cossell. Skip | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!

| | Posted: | | | | I'll always remember him doing jumps (and usually getting hurt bad) when I was a kid.
What really sticks is the interviews I've heard/read since the glory days.

| | Posted: | | | | He'll be missed. Like most of you, I always loved watching him on the Wide World of Sports. I've seen his son Robbie perform a few times, but it's just not the same. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.
