Some people's legends grow larger than life,and EK was def one of those dudes.
Whether it was watching him jump buses or the Grand Canyon on WWofS on ABC or ripping around on my BMX bike in the dirt or jumping curbs,in every kids mind that I knew,we were all imagining ourselves to be Evel.
Dude was just a bad ass.
RIP

I hear ya, DJ.
All I wanted to be when I was kid was Evel Kneivel. Idolized the guy...whether I was watching him or trying to mimic him on my dirtbike.
There's one man I am sorry to see go. Rest in peace, Evel.

I never understood peoples interest in this guy. He dressed like a right wing Liberace, generally failed at his major stunts, and why would anyone want to do that stunt shit anyways?
"I'll jump over some buses in a stadium, people will love me!"
No offense intended in regards to his passing. In life, though, the guy was a clown. I mean that in the literal sense. He was bad circus.
