Anyone looking forward to the new Evel Knievel cable movie showing this weekend? I can't wait. I love Evel. I'm also looking forward to watching Robbie do his jump on Sunday. I just won the bid on a DVD off e-bay of all of Knievel's jumps. I especially like the Ceasar Palace jump that is in slow motion. That's some pretty incredible stuff.

Just got my Evel DVD in. It was awesome! There was some pretty amazing footage on there. I remember watching some of those jumps on tv back in the '70s. Does anyone remember his last jump where he tried to jump the tank of sharks?

This guy Has a DeathWish But... He still is pretty cool. He has Balls if nothing else My older brother and I loved to see some Evel Knievel footage in the 70's & 80's. This who Super Dave Osborne thinks he is...NOT!! I have an old Christmas Picture from the 70's and you can see a Evel Knievel toy. I did'nt get a chance to see the TNT movie. But here in Atlanta they had Billboards of this movie everywhere (I guess having Ted Turner main offices in the heart of downtown Atlanta might have something to do with it since this is a TNT movie). But yeah That Knievel guy is EXTREME!!!!
