Evel Knievel sad news - cargo - 01-12-2007 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/7122258.stm - MV - 01-12-2007 Thanks Cargo. That is sad news. A legend indeed. RIP - Don Simons - 01-12-2007 Love him or hate him he was one of a kind and his name is now part of the English language. - ian huntly - 01-12-2007 I suppose in this era of "Safety at Work" Evel would not have got past the drawing board stage with the majority of his unique riding skills so I am pleased that I witnessed some of his cunning stunts when they were "allowed". I remember a young lad, after seeing Evel jump a few buses, saying to his Dad "That man isn't really EVIL is he !" Are the Purple Helmets going to add a tribute to Evel in their programme ?
