 Evel Knievel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Re: Evil knievel has died
Quote:
I think its a shame he died from his illness rather than from doing stunts. I dont particularly know the way he'd view it of course, but I guess some stunt men would like to die doing the thing that they loved, and others would rather not die due to their profession, but I think if it was me, I'd like to go out... well if I was a stunt man, literally with a bang. To best explain it, like how Steve Irwin died doing what he enjoyed rather than from an illness that sucked the life out of him? I think I have explained that clearly. If I have offended someone for some reason through saying that, well I didnt mean to, I just dont know how to word it any better. |
