“Evel Knievel, the motorcycle daredevil whose stunts — including an attempted leap over Idaho’s Snake River Canyon — made him a popular cultural figure, is dead” His main fun was before my time, but I still remember recreating his stunts (with toy motorcycles, of course) as a kid. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYGGCVE2lKY] He is already missed .
I was saddened to hear of Evel’s passing. What a colorful life he led. It is a miracle he lived to the age of 69. I too remember playing with the crank up toy Evel motorcycle and character. Those were good times!
