In this video, Evel Knievel makes his last jump before announcing his retirement on the microphone and it's caught in tape. And it was in England, not America.

  • This was NOT his last jump. Yes, he announced his retirement...but in typical Knievel fashion, as soon as he was healed...he came out of retirement.

  • i really don't think you'd have the balls to try this on a stock Triumph Bonneville 650.

    You're nothing but talk. Back then you weren't even swimming in your dad's balls yet you punk.

  • Now why can't Beiber say that after a concert? Sigh. Or Kardashian after a photo shoot?

  • Looks like videos were shot with Iphones even back then.

  • To all those that think Evel should have used a Dirt Bike. Evel said there were no dirt bikes with enough power. Remember this was the 70's and dirt bikes were not as evolved as they are today.The suspension and power wasn't there.Evel also felt he could control a heavier bike in the air as it was what he always rode.

  • Nobody today has this kind of balls approach except military special forces; after injured, he wants to get on his feet and walk out like a man.

  • sliat1981 - It's not an English person saying that he retired in England it's an american bloke so what are you on about??? Nobody in England cares where he retired

  • he ended his career in us, not englad. sorry limey's its one thing u DON'T have

  • Awwww I think he's sterile....

  • @stepoff60 thats what made him awesome he didnt need a dirt bike to be good

  • sure looks like high definition.

  • Dumbass should have used a dirt bike with more suspension and travel. But no, he had to ride a friggin' boat anchor.
