Evel Knievel

If you were a kid in the ’70s or ’80s and you ever built a little ramp in your back yard so you could do bicycle stunts, odds are pretty good you were inspired by the king of the daredevil stuntmen. In this Backtrack, we are taking an in-depth look at the life, career, and legacy of self-made death-defying superstar, the one & only, Evel Knievel!
