Evil Knievel dies aged 69

Respect..
I can remember having a toy bike as a kid, pull it backwards on the floor to wind it up and let it go, engine sound, light, the full monty. Spent hours denting all the furniture with my homemade jumps..

RIP

ye have similar memories also seem to remember some thing u put the bike in and wound it up like air raid siren then pushed the button and it took off at 100mph :) with sparks flying out of it and the sparks came from lighter flints :cool:

R.I.P evil knievel :(

I too had the toy, but the xmas I got it my mum got confused, sorry santa, and gave me a Sindy doll and my twin sister the Evel Knievel!! Trauma for a young kid to go through but I loved winding the fellla up and sending him over home made jumps of card!!

RIP Evel!
 
A real childhood hero. This guy was a household name when I grew up. He'll be remembered for his fantastic stunts.

RIP Evil. You entertained millions.
 
RIP EK. He was a little after my time, but none the less a massive influence on popular culture, Americana, riding fraternities and all sorts.

Big jumps in the sky?, I hope so :).
