Thanks for including this year this was filmed. One would be CURIOUS how much longer he loves. R.i.p Sr, R.i.p JR. I hope his children thrive and their children go on to thrive. It's worth it to do well.
My stunt cycle is on my alarm clock I'm 56 I have the truck too Original box Christmas dreams came true thanks to you, God bless You Evel Knieve I follow my dreams till this day You .
Evel was always telling people to believe in themselves and dream big . Think what you want about him . But no one can deny he is and was the greatest showman of all time . I am so thankful to have grown up watching this man in his prime . God Bless Evel Knievel !
Others imitated him, dressed like him, even broke his records. But nobody, nobody was a better showman or bigger personality. He had it all, lost it all, got back up as always and kept going until the end.
Even with all the mind blowing jumps Robbie made, he never equated himself to Evel. Evel broke bones, Robbie broke records. Best documentaries: "Being Evel," and "Chasing Evel: The Robbie Knievel story. Robbie was a better rider by far, better equipment, made jumps Evel missed. All that aside, there was only one Evel.
@@gregv79 being obligated to use those heavy old Harleys was no advantage. With better, lighter equipment, probably could have done even more. But it took brass balls to attempt some of those stunts on what he had. People remember the epic crashes, it was part of the draw. But he also completed a whole lotta jumps.

I got a motorcycle when I was12 in 1967/68.Evel has always been my Idol.I'm now 65 & still ride.He will always be the greatest motorcycle stuntman in history.Also,a man who taught his son Robbie how to follow in his footsteps safely. GOD BLESS THE KNIEVEL FAMILY ! Jesse James
He is spot on about talking and listening to old people.My whole life when ever possible I took the time to talk to them.You can learn more about life from them ,more than any book!I have to thank this man because when he took off in his sky cycle in 1974 I was 12 and I tied a rope on to the back of my bike to a big wheel with my little brother on it.The plan was for him to hit the ramp ( a board that I leaned against a garbage can on its side ) and he would fly into the air and land on the other ( can with a board ) on the other side.After a lot of talking him into it ,I peddled as fast as I could and he hit the ramp and flew into the air and he hit the other side to short and wiped out just like Evel Knevel did! THANK YOU EVEL for the good times I had.
Love this guy. Presented my family with so much excitement and joy, not including the toys. We were poor. When my Dad came home with the famous Evel Knieval toy, me and my brothers thought it was Christmas. Love you for that Dad. Love YOU for that Evel. RIP both of you.💔❣
Did u know he beat the hell out of a former press agent with a baseball bat? He broke both his arms for cuz he didn't like the book he wrote about him..his friends and wife all said the book was accurate. I love the guy too, but we all have our faults..he did a small prison stint.
He's an inspiration to me and so many. His famous quote about never giving up is beautiful. He made us forget about our problems while he risked his life. Thanks Evel and son Robbie !! You're truly magic !!!
The man inspired many of us to be fearless when we were kids. He certainly lived a fearless life. His greatest " dare devil " stunts were as he dealt with his health problems. He just kept on pushing and giving his finger to death. RIP Evel You made a big impact on us all.
I grew up watching his jumps on TV. I'm surprised he lived this long. The man was dying. He just wanted to share what he learned in life. There's nothing wrong with that. Even if nobody agrees with the things he said... he was an American, and speaking freely is what being an American is all about. Can't help but feel bad for him. At least he's accepted his past bad behavior and addressed it. Some folks go to their grave never saying they were sorry for things. I'm happy for him that he found some peace towards the end of his life.
I will always remember this man.He was a man of principal,and morels! Thank you Mr. Knievel for being a friend to my dad,and I. I still have your autograph pictures of us !
Evel, you will never know the impression you made on my life as a young boy. I grew up in a very abusive home. You were my Hero, I looked up to you for strength. I got my first bike after I left home and have been riding ever since. Rest In Peace. 🙏
He was my hero growing up in the 70s...I remember wide world of sports would come on one of the 3 tv stations we had....and we would watch him jump....
Yes amen yes yes yes he knew that all he had he had found more far far far more with God now in his life because what shall it profit a man to gain the whole world and then only to lose his soul so he was richer than ever because he gave his heart to the lord God almighty
Evel kenevel was my childhood hero and a man l admired all mine life and his. I admire his guts his confidence in himself his determination and his honesty. If he said hes gonna do something he stuck with it. RlP l hope to see you and talk someday
Even the Baddest of BadAsses knows his own mortality...he knew he was finished and was open and forthright about it..and gave some good advice...cant ask a man for more than that!!!...God Bless Evel!
truly a real man! of all the greatest things he done....nothing come close to when he accepted JESUS CHRIST as his personal savior, and received His free gift of eternal life.
I knew Evel for a few years in Clearwater Florida. He was kinda grumpy but he was in alot of pain. He had all kinds of interesting stories to tell. What a crazy a tough dude. RIP evel.
I can't remember, but didn't he break 200 bones in his body over his career? The body only has 208 bones. I can only imagine the pain he was in. 69 is young, but he looked 89 at death. RIP Superman! Evel was the real Superman.
And what an awesome God we have! So forgiving! Evel got his name from a guard in jail. Evel was a hardened criminal, robbed and stole everything that wasn't tied down. When he started jumping motorcycles, he hadn't accepted Christ. He just wanted a different life, other than being a criminal. He had a wife and children and he wasn't good at holding jobs. You know, the ground is level at the foot of the cross. My own sins are great. But to know God's grace and forgiveness through Jesus Christ has made me the person I want to be. I accepted Christ in 1978. In 1994, something tragic happened, and I turned my back. But, God never turned His back on me!
@ no one gets a free pass man. I believe in God but we all need to own up to our mistakes in this life. The fact you commented that shows that none of that will ever be forgotten and he will forever be judged for those mistakes right or wrong. I will say tho alcoholism is a disease and likely the cause of the majority of those things.
Im overwhelmed. He to the last was a rock solid example of being an American. I think his 6 virtues cannot be added or taken away from. I pray God blesses America one more time.
Evel knievel is the original OG. He tells it exactly. Way it was and is. Listen to this video children' you'll learn a lot. God bless. Rip capt knievel we love you !!!
When you love someone you love them all the way!!! I enjoyed your speech you are a kind man you are a strong man be proud the America loved you too!!! Get well you are strong!!! God bless you !! You are a hero!! I AM SENDING YOU A HUG,!!!!!
What an awesome guy! I remember the day he jumped the Snake River Canyon. I was 12 years old and I was riding with my two older brothers in an old '53 Chevy. I was lying down on the back seat feeling sad and scared because I was convinced that Evel was going to get killed that day. I prayed over and over to God that he would survive that jump, and God answered my prayers because he DID make out alive!
A MAGNIFICENT MAN… He was a national treasure & tge ultimate daredevil showman.. Also the truthful way he reflected on his life in his latter days is astonishing… A bloody legend… We were truly honoured to of been entertained by him. To those that knew him in person. It must’ve been a truly adrenaline filled rollercoaster ride. Evel was one of a kind… His Son Bobby was a credit to him also.. he admired his Father so much that he emulated him in many ways.. So we continue to pay tribute to you Evel Knievel… I hope he got to the kind heaven he dreamed of.. Rest easy Bobby..
Poodle Canoodle's last televised speech was in April 2007 when he was baptised at the Crystal Castle in California..He also was interviewed by Richard Hammond from the BBC covering Evel Knievel days in Butte Montana in the August 2007..Poodle Woofed away a few months later RIP....Wuff Wuff !!!
I went from shy scared 12 year old total train wreck to a kid with plans and a kid who became fearless and because of Evel becoming my personal Hero I lived 30 years as a (nicknamed in the 80's) one of a handful of "Knievel Clones". I held the distance record by accident by way of my worst accident when I hit the ground at 214' on a 100' jump, beating the current record by TWO feet. Don't look it up in Guiness. Like crashing don't count! I traveled half way around the world, made an honest living and have precious, magic memories in-tact all because of my adopted Godfather Evel! I owe you a huge portion of my whole life Evel. It was amazing trying to be like Superman for a little while! Thank you and thank you for your genuine courage in a world full of cowards and fakes! Hope you hit Light Speed on your own transition into to afterlife! Fun isn't it?! :}
I met him before he died at an autograph signing at Galpin Ford. I told him he was my idol as a kid, I acted and did what I thought he would do. He said yeah yeah and signed my stuff and I got a photo with him. I still loved him after all those years LOL.
The Greatest DAREDEVIL To ever live GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN we love you and miss you Mr Knievel one black kid from the hood where color didn't matter MY HERO REST IN PARADISE.
He lived life fast and hard and what a life he had.. he regrets a lot of what he did and feels sorry and needed to be forgiven. He is human and was a real superhero to me as a kid. In the end he was human and knows love is what's important. When your gone that's all you leave behind.
He was wrong about the "necessity" of believing in a deity. He was an intriguing, unusual and unique man and personality. He just couldn't imagine being a free thinker, being free of theism. I agree with him on every other thing he says... Still, I admire him and am glad this video was posted. Thank you.
i was there at wembly. he did so many run ups to the ramp you kinda had the feeling he knew the run was not long enough. half way on the last run it looked as if he was going to stop but instead went all out for it. and then bang all this sand and dust filled the air with the crash. there was so much it obscured him. im not sure but i think his whole tour of the uk was goung to net £25,000. how times have changed. good on you robert and rest in peace
I saw evel on his evil eye 2 in the spring of 77 leaning over the front drinking a beer cruzing down the canals of laurderdale it was awesome he had a great tan and where and read swimming trunks
What I find funny is people who say what Evel's faults were, or how he treated people. Unless you were with him 24/7 you don't know shit in terms of what your flapping your choppers about. Myself, I don't know how he was behind the limelight. But then again, none of us do, unless we were with him. That said, all the majority of us have nothing more than opinions of him. At least I admit it. I do know 2 things. The first, bikes today, are way more lighter than those that Evel used. He even said as much.So had he had those bikes back in his day, who knows how far he could jump. And the 2nd thing I know, is in my eyes, he will always be the best. But as far as people flapping there choppers about what a "bad" person he was, unless you were with him, (which I highly doubt) than you don't know shit. And if you don't like it, who gives a shit. R.I.P. Evel Knievel
he was all of those things.... and at the end of his life he knew he lost the best thing in his life when linda divorced him.... as a kid he was my hero... but as I got older ... I pointed out to my wfe..... linda was the real hero going what he put her through everyday and staying by his side as long as she did
Thanks for including this year this was filmed. One would be CURIOUS how much longer he loves. R.i.p Sr, R.i.p JR. I hope his children thrive and their children go on to thrive. It's worth it to do well.
My stunt cycle is on my alarm clock I'm 56 I have the truck too Original box
Christmas dreams came true thanks to you, God bless You Evel Knieve I follow my dreams till this day You .
We all can learn from the experiences he has finally come to terms with. Rest in peace Evel, my childhood hero.
A truly great man, who is in heaven! One of the greatest speeches ever!

They would advertise his tv jumps two months in advance. We as kids would talk about and wait for it like it was the biggest thing in the world.
He's an inspiration to me and so many. His famous quote about never giving up is beautiful. He made us forget about our problems while he risked his life. Thanks Evel and son Robbie !! You're truly magic !!!
He was so brave. A Dare Devil indeed.

To be a man
To do my best
to Stand alone
is my only quest...
-Evel Kenievel-
I am an immigrant. He is why I love America.
He was my hero growing up in the 70s...I remember wide world of sports would come on one of the 3 tv stations we had....and we would watch him jump....
Hero? He was many things but hero is not one of them
I had an Eval Knievel helmet when I was a kid. Always admired him. By the way I love the way he shut the guy down with the cell phone.
I am so glad he got right with god and I know he is in heaven and I thank you for being my Hero. GOD BLESS YOU.

i grew up watching him knowbody can fill his shoes ever
100%
Nobody has even tried. I kind of feel sorry for the younger generations who never saw him on TV.
Even the Baddest of BadAsses knows his own mortality...he knew he was finished and was open and forthright about it..and gave some good advice...cant ask a man for more than that!!!...God Bless Evel!
Bless you Evel. You will never be forgotten...
This guy was my hero still is my hero and believe me nobody’s breaking any records on XR750 Harley Davidson with a cast-iron engine block
He’s from my hometown of Butte, MT. I drank a beer with him a long time ago at the Freeway Tavern in Butte.
I was at the Freeway not long ago. I live across the street from where Evel grew up with his grandparents.
truly a real man! of all the greatest things he done....nothing come close to when he accepted JESUS CHRIST as his personal savior, and received His free gift of eternal life.
The GOAT. Period
I knew Evel for a few years in Clearwater Florida. He was kinda grumpy but he was in alot of pain. He had all kinds of interesting stories to tell. What a crazy a tough dude. RIP evel.

Evel is my favorite old time hockey player.
I wonder how many know he was an amateur hockey player
Lived for over two years well done good sir.
awesome individual - and I'm glad he devoted his life to God before he passed. I really want to talk to him someday in the next life !
What a legend i think like you smart brave and im just 12 thank you rest in peace. :)
WOW I wish I could have met him....
he's so much more of a hero than he ever was in the past when he accepted Jesus Christ...awesome beyond any Snake River...
And what an awesome God we have! So forgiving! Evel got his name from a guard in jail. Evel was a hardened criminal, robbed and stole everything that wasn't tied down. When he started jumping motorcycles, he hadn't accepted Christ. He just wanted a different life, other than being a criminal. He had a wife and children and he wasn't good at holding jobs.

I remember him when I was a kid watching his jumps seeing him on Wide World of Sports. RIP you will never be forgotten.. ,
Im overwhelmed. He to the last was a rock solid example of being an American.
I think his 6 virtues cannot be added or taken away from.
I pray God blesses America one more time.
Evel knievel is the original OG. He tells it exactly. Way it was and is. Listen to this video children' you'll learn a lot. God bless. Rip capt knievel we love you !!!
Thank you for posting this
Next to Denzel's commencement speech, this is the best motivational speech EVER!
When you love someone you love them all the way!!! I enjoyed your speech you are a kind man you are a strong man be proud the America loved you too!!! Get well you are strong!!! God bless you !! You are a hero!! I AM SENDING YOU A HUG,!!!!!
You do know he died don't ya?
So glad I saw you jump in Toronto . You were 7 are a great man . RIP Evel
What a speech!!!
Wow. I wish more people with age and experience would give advise to younger people.
What an awesome guy! I remember the day he jumped the Snake River Canyon. I was 12 years old and I was riding with my two older brothers in an old '53 Chevy. I was lying down on the back seat feeling sad and scared because I was convinced that Evel was going to get killed that day. I prayed over and over to God that he would survive that jump, and God answered my prayers because he DID make out alive!
I was 10 years old, and Evil offered to give me his helmet.Evil was good friends with my father Maurice Max!
did you get it?
Yea man, my father knew Maurice Max said he liked to dr3ss like a woman walk around the golf course at night and talk to himself... Real weird dude.
@@whorubitch Maurice Max did that? Or Evel? I can't imagine Evel walking around in a dress unless he was completely drunk.
A MAGNIFICENT MAN… He was a national treasure & tge ultimate daredevil showman.. Also the truthful way he reflected on his life in his latter days is astonishing… A bloody legend… We were truly honoured to of been entertained by him. To those that knew him in person. It must’ve been a truly adrenaline filled rollercoaster ride. Evel was one of a kind… His Son Bobby was a credit to him also.. he admired his Father so much that he emulated him in many ways.. So we continue to pay tribute to you Evel Knievel… I hope he got to the kind heaven he dreamed of.. Rest easy Bobby..
You Sir, will always be an American Icon
My hero ,,growing up!!!
Wow I gotta say by the thumbnail I thought his speech would be disaster and hard to speak but he actually speaks really well here
balls of steel..
So cool. Great upload. Real honesty.
Biggest set of balls........ ever.
Evel Knievel Living Legends one of my idols. stay cool Knievel we're rooting for you... one of the bravest men I will ever know.

Watching this guy and thinking about millennials and their "safe spaces"... What an absolute contrast.
Beautiful and inspiring speech. Rest in Peace Bobby, in Jesus arms.
He always has and always will be my Hero!

The Greatest DAREDEVIL To ever live GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN we love you and miss you Mr Knievel one black kid from the hood where color didn't matter MY HERO REST IN PARADISE.
He left the woman he loved because she became a Christian,he didn’t want that life style , I’m glad he finally found God before the end , 🙏🏻🇺🇸RIP
He lived life fast and hard and what a life he had.. he regrets a lot of what he did and feels sorry and needed to be forgiven. He is human and was a real superhero to me as a kid. In the end he was human and knows love is what's important. When your gone that's all you leave behind.

a hero and a champion. more guts than most
He was wrong about the "necessity" of believing in a deity. He was an intriguing, unusual and unique man and personality. He just couldn't imagine being a free thinker, being free of theism. I agree with him on every other thing he says... Still, I admire him and am glad this video was posted. Thank you.
Great interview. a man of God
After everything he did he became a believer in Jesus the most important thing any man can do is that Amen
Great video!
How can 23 people give this a thumbs down?
Legend on a bike.
i was there at wembly. he did so many run ups to the ramp you kinda had the feeling he knew the run was not long enough. half way on the last run it looked as if he was going to stop but instead went all out for it. and then bang all this sand and dust filled the air with the crash. there was so much it obscured him. im not sure but i think his whole tour of the uk was goung to net £25,000. how times have changed. good on you robert and rest in peace
i thought he made $250k on that one show?
Sounds like a wise man
Man , he is dying in front of us , but he takes the time and energy to give us his views.
Evel was a true patriot 👍👍. RIP
I saw evel on his evil eye 2 in the spring of 77 leaning over the front drinking a beer cruzing down the canals of laurderdale it was awesome he had a great tan and where and read swimming trunks
Amazing individual rest In Peace my friend
Made 25mil spent 26. Sweet. He made it 😉 So happy he found Jesus! Yes!
in today's money it would be 25 billion
I have fallen in love ❤
The neighbor boy had the Evel toy , motorcycle bike that would wind up and jump. Man we played with that thing for hours and hours.
I have always liked and respected Evil Knievel and have always been aware that he was a egomaniac. Non of us are perfect
Steel nerve, not afraid of anything or anybody.
What I find funny is people who say what Evel's faults were, or how he treated people. Unless you were with him 24/7 you don't know shit in terms of what your flapping your choppers about. Myself, I don't know how he was behind the limelight. But then again, none of us do, unless we were with him. That said, all the majority of us have nothing more than opinions of him. At least I admit it. I do know 2 things. The first, bikes today, are way more lighter than those that Evel used. He even said as much.So had he had those bikes back in his day, who knows how far he could jump. And the 2nd thing I know, is in my eyes, he will always be the best. But as far as people flapping there choppers about what a "bad" person he was, unless you were with him, (which I highly doubt) than you don't know shit. And if you don't like it, who gives a shit. R.I.P. Evel Knievel

Hey, I remember being there. I forgot all about him coming to Clearfield.
he was all of those things.... and at the end of his life he knew he lost the best thing in his life when linda divorced him.... as a kid he was my hero... but as I got older ... I pointed out to my wfe..... linda was the real hero going what he put her through everyday and staying by his side as long as she did
