Evel Knievel Dies

At the age of 69, stuntman extraordinaire Robert Craig Knievel Jr., better known as "Evel Knievel" has passed away. Renowned for his wild stunts that involved his two-wheeler jumping over impossible obstacles, in the last few years, he became quite frail.

Evel leaves behind sons Kelly and Robbie Knievel, himself a pro daredevil, daughters Alicia and Tracey. He also had 11 grandchildren with ex-wives Linda Knievel and Krystal Kennedy.

Also mourning the loss of his employer is Darren Prince, Knievel's marketing agent. The CEO of Prince Marketing Group says, "“He was a great man and there will never be another like him again. I feel honored to have worked with him and hope that America remembers him as not just a stuntman but as an American icon who put his heart and soul into entertaining us.”
