I have just learned of the passing of Robert "Evel" Knievel, on Friday 30 Nov 07. I remember as a very young boy, watching his stunts with awe, and developing a keen interest in motorcycles. I may not have tried his stunts, but I do enjoy the machines that he sparked my love of.

Same here...When I was younger, I could not believe that someone really had the B---s (brains) to jump over the things that man did.

Every time he came on TV, I was glued to the tube just waiting for him to crash......

There is no way I would try to do any of his stunts...
I'm B---less (Brainless)

He had a different approach to riding. But interesting, I just like having my wheels on the pavement.
