Evel Knievel, the hard-living motorcycle daredevil whose exploits made him an international icon in the 1970s has died at the age of 69.
He had been in bad health for years, suffering from diabetes and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, an incurable condition that scarred his lungs.
Knievel under went a liver transplant in 1999 after nearly dying of hepatitis C.
Guess he lasted a long time. He entertained many people for many years ….. thanks Evel!
Rest in Peace.
