Summary
This week, we keep this crazy tale going, as Evel acquires a bit of fame, but is too injured from his numerous crashes to take advantage. He goes on a one man publicity blitz to promote his non existent jump over the Grand Canyon. He also cuts casts off of body parts in order to jump, gets in a bleacher clearing brawl with The Hell's Angels, and is approached by a major Hollywood actor, who wants to make his life into a movie!!
Be so physically broken that you have to be helped on to your motorcycle, in order to jump things, attack a man by jumping off a moving motorcycle, and be played by George Hamilton in a movie with Evel Knievel - Part 3!!
Check us out, every Tuesday!
We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!Â
