Evel Knievel in Las Vegas

We met Evel Knievel the other day...man, that guy is old! It was his 64th birthday and he had a gig at Las Vegas Harley Davidson. He had a pretty cool setup...big bus & trailer, not to mention his own 'Evel Knievel F-150 series' truck with an 'EK' in the center of the billet grill. Anyways, he says that he will be doing his last jump when he is 65 and it will be the longest ever (over 200 feet). He likes to promote the fact that you are only as old as you think, and has married a young little hottie (about 35 years old - that's young compared to him) to help him prove it. Cool guy though...My parents have had an old school Evel Knievel pinball machine for like 15 years now, and they still play it almost every day...kinda cool meeting a legend...one goal accomplished, hundreds to go!

thats cool and all, but hes crazy for doing another jump, that guy crashed more than stunts than he landed... people went to his shows knowing there was a good chance they would see a crash!

AGREED. The dude can barely walk..let alone ryde a motorcycle.

But if he wants to die doing something he loves then more power to him...I want it the same way..but I'd rather do it in private.
