I saw him successfully jump 13 cars at Kaukauna Raceway on a Saturday way back when. Man, could that guy wheelie . . .
He crashed on Sunday doing the same stunt at the same track . . .
Evel Knievel, quite a guy. Always a showman. I believe that he even did a little time after he became famous, for beating the stew out of a guy that slandered him, or something like that.
