I worked at a casino where they hosted this big event in which Robbie Knievel was hired to do some stunts on one of the motorcycles that was being given away.  He hopped on the bike and immediately crashed it into the stage.
The CFO was pissed and wanted to know what he was thinking.  Robbie's response?  People don't show up to watch him perform stunts; they show up to watch him get injured. >

That's some real Super Dave Osbourne energy right there. >

TFA said only three days on hospice, so hopefully that means that it was quick instead of the prolonged suffering that many go through. >

Yes, it’s so sad. It’s a fantastic resource. >

Robbie Knievel, though less famous than his father, was actually better at the sport. He built better bikes and used science and math in a way that let him go faster, jump further and crash less. RIP. >

I remember reading somewhere that Evel just kind of winged it. No calculations, no tests, just vibes. >

WHAT??? Are telling me that the Snake River rocket-cycle wasn't the greatest technological feat of the 70s? If so, you are about to radically change the perspective of my childhood. >

It was, it was just done with the “hold my beer” method. >

Look, this beer spill looks like a 6. We will use 6 rockets on the bike >

wow, bad coupe of days for everybody who's dad wore a jumpsuit. >

They're caught in a trap and they can't walk out.
