Evel Knievel Has Died

Yup! Remember him well from my childhood.....Saturday afternoons on Wide World of Sports doing all his jumps and stuff! It was pretty exciting for kids back then! I had the Evel Knievel motorcycle toy too.....the one you cranked and it shot across the room and jumped the ramp!!! 69 years old......RIP Evel Knievel and thanks for being a part of my childhood!

I remember painting my football helmut just like his and we used to jump our bikes over ramps we made, He was fearless. Like a real superhero to us kids.
