@poolshark101386 I have heard the word troll..but at least tell me you are not serious or you are not even a real person. HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT? .......oh well, this is why I try and not leave comments. I hate to argue on the internet.
Pretty cool video. That's how many studio special effects guys get their start. Keep up the good work, maybe some day you'll be making a couple mil. a year.
Actually, His "stunt Cycle" made it.... All it needed was Evel to stop the recoil shock on the handlebars. As I recall, Quite a few "Stunt Cycles" completed their jumps successfully but Evel, ( Ever the showman ) felt compelled to "Thumbs UP" the crowd at the wrong times. He later learned that "thumbs UP" are for AFTER the landing.. NOT DURING!
TheRanhughes is right. It is fake in so far as it is not the real Evel Knievel on his motorcycle. It is the toy Evel Knievel action figure and motorcycle.
I never missed a jump as a kid the whole school talked bout his jumps a week be fore and a weekbafter and we always brought out the wood and bricks after a jump fuk'n awsome
Brings back good memories of child hood when blood on your hands ment you were tough
Are you kidding? Evel held several records until the late 90's and some until just a few years ago... and they were broken by maybe 1 car, or another small increment. He inspired just about every one of the guys who try these stunts today and is considered the greatest of all time.
yes but he was the first and everyone knows him in the hole world nowone knows the guys of today (not everyone) and he did not have the power that todays bikes have
The biggest mistake Evel ever made was go after Shelly Saltman with a baseball bat. Saltman later produced documents in both criminal and civil court that proved that, although Knievel claimed to have been insulted by statements in Saltman's book, he and his lawyers had actually been given editorial access to the book and had approved and signed off on every word prior to its publication.

Evel didn't use any space age, light as fuck, suped up suspension bike. He used a Triumph Bonnevile T120 (with a 650cc engine). Pretty good I think.
