Evel Knievel dies at 69
From CNN:

Quote:
Evel Knievel, the motorcycle daredevil whose stunts -- including an attempted leap over Idaho's Snake River Canyon -- made him a popular cultural figure, is dead, according to his Web site, evelknievel.com. He was 69.
As a kid in the 70s, it seemed that every boy with a bicycle at one time or another wanted to be like him. I still remember being huddled around a TV set watching as he tried, and failed, to jump the snake river canyon in his rocket cycle. Looking back, it all seems a little silly, but at the time - that was some amazing stuff.
