Wow! You sure bought back some good memories 😂 This was back when kids went outside to play and socialize in person and not behind some screen....Loved this toy back in the 70's
I got this toy in 1980 from my parents after having my tonsils out. Best toy I ever had. Wish I still had it. A boxed one is worth a small fortune now. Great video by the way!!
I Hate to say it...But the first jump was almost tumble for tumble like Caesars palace... Thanx 4 making this video ..brought back some great memories of me and my cousins hangin out and playing with this for hours and hours...
this video was best I've seen in a while. You've got evel, you've got bod, you've got high 'n dry, and python to play it out. This video just made my decade. thanks tinystuntman!
Haha I was checking this to explain the toy to my son that I had when I was like 7 years old. I laughed so loud when I saw that it was an adult playing with it. If I had one I would definitely hog the playtime from my son. Haha. Best toy ever.
A perfect simulation of his Caesars Palace jump. I had a few of these back in the day, when toys and cartoons were great. SSP's Whizzers, Vertibirds, those were the days.
Me and my brother got one each back in 1976 on Christmas day and we woke up early morning and got them out in the hallway and it woke my parents up. It was driving them mad so they had to stop us. Makes me chuckle to this day.
This was one of the best toys o ever had! The sound took me back! I had the jump ramp with the Sky Hook! I also Evil in his classic white outfit and one with a red outfit!
Had this in the 80's-used to wind it up to light speed. The cogs would start to slip as I wound it up to maximum. The noise through the floor boards in my bedroom was like a doodlebug in full flight-the whole house vibrated as Evel was about to fly across the bedroom at 1000 mph! My parents tried to watch telly downstairs but it was impossible for them , then suddenly Evel would be released and man and machine flew straight into the wall and exploded into pieces but the bike was quite resilient, I was amazed how strong it was! Drove my parents mental-pissing myself writing this now!
One of the best toys I ever owned as a kid sent it off my parent's garage which was about 18 ft and landed on blacktop and still stood the test of time wish I still had it
I remember we had those wind-up toy cars that when you push them in reverse they were running as hell,and we set smaller custom displays like that one and had them crash to each other.I cannot describe the fun we had as kids just by doing that.Now i cannot imagine how cool would also be if we had toys like those as well.You people have the best toys,but if you have a creative mind almost anything can be fun as hell.Cool video you bring me back to my childhood thanks.
I remember these toys they would come in pieces you would hit wall or another car and the pieces would fly off the car simulating crashing those were fun
"You give your word that you're gonna jump on that day, ya gotta jump." You can't back out because it's windy. The strong backwind probably caused him to overshoot the ramp. These are the perils that the modern day stuntman faces. He risks injury and possibly his own life.
Just give Evel a chance! (pun intended) Move the landing ramp! Ahh, oh well... The Stunt Cycle was certainly my favorite toy in the 70's. And there were some great toys in the era. Slot cars were still relevant, I love the old AFX stuff! Mego/Airfix figures....Micronauts! Electronic toys like Merlin and Coleco football, Dark Tower board game, Atari and Intellivision..... What we just called whirlybird, Mattle had the Vertibird, was just pure electric fun! Not quite as fun as the Cox control lines but kinda same principle. Ahhh nostalgia......Right! Great toy!
I'm 48 and this was a toy I wanted but never got. Now I realise how much fun I would've had. I also wanted Stretch Armstrong and Tin Can Alley and didn't get those either 😢
Yup....had one too. I loved that toy, was a huge fan of Evel. My big brother took him out one day and rubbed him in a bunch of oil in out in the neighbors driveway. Man I was pissed. totally ruined that toy. Anyone remember the "Demolition Derby" cars? You would pull the plastic rope that had teeth on it and the big wheel in the center of the car would spin. Put them on the ground and aim them at each other....if they got a good hit...parts would fly everywhere. Stepping on all those little parts with bare feet in the middle of the night sucks though.
I was born in the early 90's and got to play with my dads toys from when he was a kid, and two of my favorite toys of all time was the Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle and the destruction derby cars you mentioned. I could play with both for hours on end, they reissued the evel knievel stunt cycle in the late 90s, my parents bought me one for Christmas and I used my Dads old Evel Knievel Stunt Van with it, was too cool. These toys are worth quite a bit today. A lot more thought went in to toys of the 60s and 70s, I truly enjoyed his handme down toys much more than the ones of my time, all of the old original Hot Wheels and all.
I'm 52 . I had this toy spent many hours playing with it. Then we would take our bikes out n make ramps n do jumps. Then mom n Dad got to patch us up!!! Lol!!!
Also had one as a kid. I remember mom having to wash his jumpsuit because he had a jump go wrong and went underneath neighbor s car that had oil leak. Lol
If that toy was given to a kid today it would be broken in Xmas day, toys were made to last and certainly tested.Believe mine is still in my folks loft and I’m 44
I also had this toy in the '70s. It was well built. Remember the little thing on the back of the seat that you flipped back so he'd ride a wheelie. I also had a Spider-Man figure that was the same size and I would swap out evils costume on Spider-Man.
Clearly this was a 3 crank jump. While I enjoy your video I must object to the misuse of the action figure! How many more crashes must he endure? Please at least TRY not to harm action Evel anymore than absolutely necessary....
What a fool. Should have performed the stunt on a smooth surface. If Evil Kenevel did make the landing ramp, he could have driven on and came to a smooth stop thereby avoiding injury to his plastic arms and legs. It was beyond pointless performing the stunt on grass. What's wrong with people? Jesus Christ!
I had this toy back in the mid 1970s, one of the most fun I ever had, along with the six million dollar man doll!
I had both of those. I just bought 3 of these new releases of evel. Best toys ever.
@Chris Gilpin Yessir The Silver Sizzlers Cars!
It’s an ‘action figure’ not a doll!!! 😂
i'm 44 years old. i remember having this toy. it was the best.
I’m 44 and i had it too! Handed down from my brother
I'm 50 and I remember every kid in the neighborhood had this iconic toy!!.
This was the ultimate toy back in the late 70's and early 80's when i was a kid...
I'm 51 yrs old and I still remember the night my momma came home and gave me this toy. Oh the fun I had!
Wow! You sure bought back some good memories 😂 This was back when kids went outside to play and socialize in person and not behind some screen....Loved this toy back in the 70's

My favorite toy of all-time, 41 years ago.
mine too
Brilliant.
I was a bit worried he might fly into those windows at first but Evel knew what he was doing!
I'm 56, still have mine and it still works!
I Hate to say it...But the first jump was almost tumble for tumble like Caesars palace...
Thanx 4 making this video ..brought back some great memories of me and my cousins hangin out and playing with this for hours and hours...
Nothing will ever be as cool as getting one of these Christmas morning.
this video was best I've seen in a while. You've got evel, you've got bod, you've got high 'n dry, and python to play it out. This video just made my decade. thanks tinystuntman!
I've got an Aprilia Tuono thanks to having one of these toys!!
45 years later I still have the knuckle scars to show my love for this toy. The only thing that would get me away from it was my Raleigh Grifter 😌
From one Evel Knievel fan in America to and Knievel fan in UK thank you friend
Haha I was checking this to explain the toy to my son that I had when I was like 7 years old. I laughed so loud when I saw that it was an adult playing with it. If I had one I would definitely hog the playtime from my son. Haha. Best toy ever.
That was a very authentic crash EVEl KENIEVEL will be smiling down on that one!

Brilliant video.
I still have this toy, one of the classics!
this was the Greatest toy back in the day even today , makes me want to get me one now take care, Lone Live Evel Knievel

You played the theme tune from Bod. You're a hero , my friend. Loving your work.
This warms the cockles of my heart.
"You give your word that you're gonna jump on that day, ya gotta jump."
You can't back out because it's windy. The strong backwind probably caused him to overshoot the ramp. These are the perils that the modern day stuntman faces. He risks injury and possibly his own life.
I used to bust my knuckles on the concrete winding up that thing - My Gi Joe didn't like Evil
this was my favorite toy for a long time.
The outcome of the jumps are the realest part. lol Now you need the Ken and Barbie Hospitalstation to stich him back up. lol
I loved this toy. What a fun video. This was like a recreation of the Ceaser'a Palace Jump LOL
The mock movie idea was funny. Good work.
Just give Evel a chance! (pun intended)
Move the landing ramp! Ahh, oh well...
The Stunt Cycle was certainly my favorite toy in the 70's. And there were some great toys in the era. Slot cars were still relevant, I love the old AFX stuff! Mego/Airfix figures....Micronauts! Electronic toys like Merlin and Coleco football, Dark Tower board game, Atari and Intellivision.....

Ahhh nostalgia......Right! Great toy!
That video is AWESOME. Best toy I ever had.
thats pretty freakin badass even for today.
Cracks me up you made this video. Good job. I think I was 6or 7 when I had mine. It was all about the jumps
I loved being a kid in the 1970s...
I'm 48 and this was a toy I wanted but never got. Now I realise how much fun I would've had. I also wanted Stretch Armstrong and Tin Can Alley and didn't get those either 😢
you can finally now have the evel knevel bike,they reissued them summer 2020,california creations.40$hurry
Well done! That looked like just about every jump he made.
His power is an estimated! ✌️😎
Looks like Caesars palace all over again!!
Yup....had one too. I loved that toy, was a huge fan of Evel. My big brother took him out one day and rubbed him in a bunch of oil in out in the neighbors driveway.

Had them both two of my favorites
Too easy for Evel, he’s the man !
I'm 52 . I had this toy spent many hours playing with it. Then we would take our bikes out n make ramps n do jumps. Then mom n Dad got to patch us up!!! Lol!!!
Jumps and lands just like the real Evil Knievel.
Hallelujah praise Jesus Christ! Mr knevil was a born again believer and is now with the Son of God Jesus Christ
The man took a beating a real hero
best gift i got for Christmas i jumped everything
Bloody hell!! He bought it!!
That was pretty much true to form on a lot of Knievel's jumps...
Missed it by THAT much.
Also had one as a kid. I remember mom having to wash his jumpsuit because he had a jump go wrong and went underneath neighbor s car that had oil leak. Lol
Best toy I ever had
I had this also......great toys back then !!!
02:10 Dang, overshot the Caesars landing again.
At least it was on grass .
Fecking ace man!!! Gloat his helmet flying off..hahahahahahaha LETHAL
Evil wasn't Evil if he didn't end up in my dad's flower beds with his helmet on backwards what a toy great video
That’s was my favorite toy when I was a kid
I loved that toy too.
Oh. The memories
Evel is The Man !!!
But why is he wearing lipstick?
Either way, great work! I’m now a subscriber. 👍
If that toy was given to a kid today it would be broken in Xmas day, toys were made to last and certainly tested.Believe mine is still in my folks loft and I’m 44
So good. Thank you!
Should have calculated for the wind hopefully he lives to ride another day 😅🤣😂🍻
TinyStuntMan And 7inchdaredevil Awsome !
Lol just like his real jumps cheers!
Only Kenner figure that could probably make these jumps successfully would be Tee Tee Power and his motocross cycle. He was also a little bad ass.
When have seen present of toy story 4
Nice!
best sound as a kid was noise of cranking this thing up and you missed it
Is that an original from Ideal Toy Company!!!
wish I still had mine
Just like Evel Knevel missed theme preamp sometimes makes the ramp
Awesome.
Thats actually how the real Evel Knievel used to land. On his head.
anybody who ever owned this toy remembers your knuckles hitting the ground and leaving nasty cuts. .I would still give it a go
Yes, I'm 420 !
The ramp WTH
i saw him when i was little
That's a ceaser place monement
My dad still has the toy!
In pieces 😬🤫
I also had this toy in the '70s. It was well built. Remember the little thing on the back of the seat that you flipped back so he'd ride a wheelie. I also had a Spider-Man figure that was the same size and I would swap out evils costume on Spider-Man.
What am I supposed to be watching here??
Duke caboom
Why does ever UA-camr think they are making a big budget movie?
I think you need a new stunt coordinator. The one you've got might be scotching it up!
evil kenwvil los his helmut on every single jump
the jump was too small, it was too easy
Kids don't try this at home with Star Wars action figures. Only trained Evil Knievel dolls should attempt the following.
I had the funny car.
Clearly this was a 3 crank jump. While I enjoy your video I must object to the misuse of the action figure! How many more crashes must he endure? Please at least TRY not to harm action Evel anymore than absolutely necessary....
in germany LOTTO jou take millonon,wenn the knevel toy raid perfek jou winn to 1000000
Bet you think that's pretty clever, doncha boy?
whats with the Brit flag, Evil was American!!!
Radiohead .
What a fool. Should have performed the stunt on a smooth surface.

Wrong flag 🇺🇸
