    All the crashes, broken bones etc. never got him. In the end it is being reported as liver cancer that took him.

    Imagining Evel Knievel dying slowing on a deathbed is just not right. A man like that deserved to go out with a bang. Maybe that's wrong to say, but I think Evel might have agreed.

    Cancer is a b*t*ch. Broken bones don't kill you.

    Rip Evil.

    My knuckles were permanently skinned for about a year after they came out with those crank up Evel Kneivel motorcycle/action figure things. Damn rug burns! That little thing could fly. Salut Evel!

    If you think about it, he helped our economy. He was the inspiration for millions upon millions of doctor visits and pain pills.

    RIP
