THE DON E. BRANKER STORY

THE DON E. BRANKER STORY
Perhaps no single person in the world had more impact on the "POP CULTURE" of the 1970'S than Don E. Branker. He promoted the two largest festivals in history, executive producer of the most famous event ever, Evel Knivels Snake River Jump, hosted the #1 rock Tv show on ABC, pioneered the professional sport of skateboarding, co-produced the Richard Pryor Live movie, toured internationally his Festival of Thrills stunt show, produced 6 broadway plays and still had time to produce over 1000 major concerts with the biggest names in entertainment. He is now negotiating a Book and Film deal on his incredible life story.

There's little on the internet about Don E. Branker and nothing on Wikipedia. Is he still alive?

I'm still alive, I think! I'm working on my website, it should be done in next couple of weeks. I dont understand how to get my extensive career on Wikipedia. Any suggestions? Thanks for asking>

A friend and I started a riot at cal jam 2 in 78 ..it started off tossing empty cans at each other and it escalated into 10 against 10 then 30 /30 We bugged out at about 30 because what was being tossed became bottles rocks ..anything ..At one point 50 people rushed 50 and then they retreated and now 100 people are running one way so now 200 more turn and run and 300 makes 1000 run and 1000 makes 5000and so on we had just jumped a wall turned and saw a huge wave of people crashing
