the world’s greatest daredevil…

Hvil i fred du store flyvende stjernespækket sølvfugl. Endnu en af de helt store from over there har forladt denne verden og er draget til de evige stuntmarker. Mr. Evel Knievel valgte fredag at takke af for denne gang og tanker nu kværnen fuld af blå benzin oppe blandt de som var…

Med Evels egne ord: I routinely faced Death and was able to turn it into a benefit for my life, my family and everyone that surrounded me and believed in me.  Practically my entire existence in the public spotlight has been borne out of overcoming adversity – adversity that should have cost me my life. Caesars Palace, Snake River Canyon, Wembley Stadium;  I’ve shattered bones, incurred severe trauma and  suffered lacerations to much of my body and have spent, literally, years of my life lying in hospitals. I’m very lucky to be alive, but I’ve never stayed down for long.By getting up and going back to what I was born to do, I’ve gained a world of fans, most of whom are with me to this day. I can’t express the gratitude I have for your support and the respect and loyalty you’ve given me through all these years. I’m very proud to say I believe I’ve earned it. To be a man, to do my best, to stand alone is my only quest….   

God bless you all and as always…Happy Landings!
