Before we get into the actual topic of this article, here’s a quick history course for any younger reader who has never heard of Evel Knievel. Born in the USA in 1938, Robert Craig “Evel” Knievel, Jr. was a famous stuntman who became famous around the world for his spectacular jumps on a motorcycle. Among other things, Knievel jumped over 50 cars lined up in a row. Not all of his stunts were crowned with success, however. For example, the attempt to jump over 13 buses failed. A jump over a shark tank, for example, also went wrong. Nevertheless, the stuntman who died in 2007 is still remembered today due to many spectacular stunts.
