As Infidel As It Gets

In the late 60s and 70s every boy with a bicycle (including yours truly) wanted to be Evel Knievel.

Now Travis Pastrana, while paying tribute to Knievel, broke 2 of his records and nailed the Caeser's Palace Fountain jump Knievel couldn't.

On a nearly identical Indian Scout (all 340 lbs of it) as Knievel rode.

And in one night...



and let's not forget his victory dance...

Ha...just watched an episode of American Pickers during which Evil's son sold some of his father's treasured items including the last iconic leather jacket worn by Evil as well as a hair brush and waffle iron he once used.
