The collective size of America's balls just got a lot smaller... because he had the biggest balls of us all. This is some rather odd timing considering not even a week ago I read an article about him in Maxim.

For some reason, I thought he was already dead. Not sure why.

Maybe it's because he was a friggin' crazy person.

You guys weren't even thoughts in your parents heads when Evel attempted that Snake River Canyon jump.  That was a day when all of the working class TVs were tuned in to see the jump.  No five second delay there.

Evel Knieval was an icon of the 70s.  Back before everyone started all this safety crap and people had fun.

Kudos to the man, but I'm perfectly happy NOT riding a dirtbike across an open chasm with not much but water and ROCKS below. 

I don't even ride rollercoasters.

I'm plenty happy not riding a dirtbike, period.
