Re: This cant be true....
Got to give the guy credit for making himself an American icon as a daredivil, and knowing when to retire before he had one jump too many.

Re: This cant be true....
It's possible that he might have had one jump too many though. I read this in one article about him today:
Quote:
|
Knievel had undergone a liver transplant in 1999 after nearly dying of hepatitis C, likely contracted through a blood transfusion after one of his bone-shattering spills.
|
When you do the type of stunts he did, your injuries are going to be far more serious. And the consequences of those injuries (even years later) can be deadly.
Regardless and since it's not known if that started his health decline, he deserves a lot of respect. RIP Evel!

Re: This cant be true....
yay his daughter said he has been ill for quite a few years now it was no shock to the family that he has passed.
It may be from a transplant, things were not always watched as well as they should be, getting better now thogh
