It's been a long time coming, but yes, RIP. What a legend. I remember my dad told me about how he watched him on tv when he was my age. Well, actually, he was in the Navy at my age. :lol: But you get the idea. I might go on YouTube and watch some old clips.

Yeah. Bobby Knievel or something like that. I saw him do some stunt back in 95 or sometime around then.

He did a jump outside Caesar's Palace a while back I believe, but I wasn't sure if it was him or the father until now, it was the son who made that jump.
