Met him when I was working at the Bay Harbor Inn, Tampa FL. He was so kind, gracious and very generous with the staff. Class Act ❤️❤️

Wow some of you Americans sure are crazy. You gotta admire his gutts, grit, determination and stubborn attitude.

MuscularDemigod69239, Evel was a Butte, Montana boy & I'm pretty sure that he did manage to chip and/or crack many, if not all, of the bones in his ears, on a few of the occasions that he fractured his skull.
The first was when he missed the fountain at Ceasar's Palace and another was when he fell into the Snake River Canyon...

I lived in Twin Falls, ID (town right by the Snake River Canyon jump) when he attempted the jump. I don't remember too much because I was just a kid. My brother climbed on our roof to watch the jump.

Is that really a record you want?

The Evel Knievel Musuem in Topeka, Kansas is absolutely amazing and full of EK artifacts, including his trailer, motorcycles, jumpsuits, toys, helmets, cars and the actual sky cycle from his Snake River attempt.

DistressedHunter8576, crazy tough fearless dude

Player #326446, I don't think he fractured all 33 of his vertibrae or all 24 of his ribs, so, no, not every bone in his body. (he may have, but I doubt it) which means that he must have broken the same bones many times. There are 206 bones in an adult human body, less than half the number that he broke.

JR. Gee, That's Timex watches, nothing to do with EK. LOL!
Mel
He was really cool, but I thought he was nuts for doing all those stunts. The jump over the Grand Canyon made me nervous.
Bob
My heart's been broken 💔 more times than that. Hey Guiness...
MARELMAR
even his son was doing this kind of work as a stuntman, Robbie Knievel imitating of his father.
Lisa
Player BARTEMAEUS 10, yes, he broke many of the same bones again and again. It's crazy to think about how much those bones broke, re-knit, re-broke, re-knit in his lifetime. In a weird sense, it would be interesting to see his cadaver now see those bones.
Jackie
Player BARTEMAEUS 10, evil said he broke 37 of his bones
Jackie
Player #48281894, actually he said he broke about 37. it's just that he kept breaking some of the same ones over and over

Lin, did you know that Super Dave is Albert Brooks brother, the actor and director and their last name is Einstein?
Lin
He inspired Super Dave and a lot of BMX riders.
Mark
In Maryland, pretty much the entire East coast,were told that he never made that jump.
Ruby Woo
I think he was an adrenaline junkie. I can relate ...
Bunkinater
In his later years he walked around with a cane filled with Wild Turkey. I wonder how many times he emptied that flask to help mask the pain?
Melode
I think evel kneval had a death wish. I don't know why he did what he did but it's not something I would try.
Player #48281894
Montana Lady, I remenber him said he broke very bone in his body
Player #35387966
He certainly was an interesting person that started a lot of motorcycle accidents.

Why die He want to JUMP over Things?
Player #9495659
When I was little, I watched his jumps, with my dad, who enjoyed watching. As I recall, most of the time he crashed, rather than making it fully across a huge long stack of cars. I don't remember what his other stunts were.
