Okay. I'm going to try this for a THIRD time posting this Evel Knievel thread. Evidently this news story isn't news and should have been posted to 'chat' according to the Mods.

It would have been “news” if he died in the attempt.

Oh! So that’s the criterion for qualifying as ‘news’ on FR. I didn’t know that!

It’s a shame your earlier thread got pulled. People were engaged in a discussion, and I was about to post something and the page was gone.

Or if he actually landed the craft instead of wimping out and using a parachute.

It would be nice if the mods would have simply changed it to ‘chat’ instead of pulling the thread. Are the mods getting that petty these days? I guess someone at FR has something against Evel Knievel.

That’s not a “jump”...That’s a launch...
When Kneivel used to jump buses and stuff was a jump...with a running start...

I have a ticket (found, unused) for the CCTV broadcast of Knievel’s attempt way back when.
