Evel Knievel Passes away

November 30 marked the end of what will forever be remembered as the longest and most courageous battle between one man, a man we all know as the world's greatest daredevil, and death. Robert Craig "Evel" Knievel died in Clearwater, Florida, finally succumbing after nearly a three-year bout with the terminal lung disease, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. He was 69

I think this really sums up his life:

One of the most daring riders of all times. Never afraid of defying death,never afraid to try any dangerous stunt. A perfectionist that he was..
God Bless his soul!
