An excellent slice of history
GlennDavidTaylor12 April 2006
This biography was nicely done, with lots of facts and footage. There was plenty of action, but what I loved most was the way the piece was made to have you actually meet the man, Evel Knievel. You really got to see what kind of a person he was. You may end up liking him, or maybe not, but this is the real Evel Knievel.

This was also a great reminder to me of why I was such a big fan of his in the mid to late 70's. Evel Knievel was a true Superstar that transcended being just a motorcycle daredevil. He was a huge star, and a worldwide icon. But the man was always there, just a regular man.

There were also nice bits about his family, and how his life and his challenges affected them.

All-in-all, a well done piece. 8 out of 10.
