[Infoman665]

Go higher. There is much to learn.

I sure miss his attitude as a real man.

Oh if only we had real men to straighten

out this country and be able to see through

the lie's in which we live in. If you have a ear.

Oh I KNOW what that fella was asking him just before Evels' jump --- "Hey, you want a priest waiting for you on the other end?!!"

Look at the view toward the take off ramp at 0:17 and tell me that doesn't scare you shitless.

[evellee]

Me and Bob have been looking for the whole show for the past 30 years, we only have about a minute of it, could you do me a copy, email me at leesobol@hotmail.co.uk

please.

Lee.

@evellee I thought Jeff Lowe said he had a copy of it.

[evellee]

@VIDEOTIMEMACHINE Yep says he has, have sent several emails me and Bob, false promises so far of getting a copy for us, oh well never mind, it'll turn up one day, hopefully before I'm dead

[VIDEOTIMEMACHINE]

@evellee Here is what is going on. First, I got this from someone who made me sign a paper that I wouldn't copy . Also , Evel Knievel is caught up in a ton of lawsuits. I have already been told once by someone via a cease and desist order not to sell his videos. Hopefully Jeff will provide the video.

[evellee]

how much footage do you have ? just the jump or the whole show, think it was 40 minutes or so, do you have a copy I could buy from you ?

[VIDEOTIMEMACHINE]

@evellee The whole show with the original commercials. But , it's not for sale. I thought they had it on the Bob Cook Website. Check them out. 

[evellee]

do have the whole show on tape ?

[VIDEOTIMEMACHINE]

@evellee Yes. The show also featured the Harlem Globetrotters. That part of the show was taped and stuck in but the Knievel jump was live .

[MentalTeleprosy]

I was there. At King's Island that day. I remember day putting me up on his shoulders although I do not see us in the crowd. I was 5.

[VIDEOTIMEMACHINE]

@MentalTeleprosy I was at the jump as well. I did see myself in the complete show but it was years later when I finally found a copy of this jump.

[MentalTeleprosy]

@VIDEOTIMEMACHINE Sweet Videotimemachine. Are you from Cincinnati? Nice you found a copy and thanks so much for posting it. I meant to say "I remember DAD putting me up on his shoulders" not "day". y isn't even close to D. I just play so many games that sometimes I still press Y to talk.

[VIDEOTIMEMACHINE]

@MentalTeleprosy No. I'm from New England. I got the tape from a retired Reds Baseball player. He was looking for something I had so we traded.

That was the most watched event on ABC's Wide World of Sports.
