I used to have that Evl Knevl wind up motor bike thing that flew down the ramp and jumped over stuff. Must have been about 1973, when Atem was released

RIP Evl.

I have a vague memory of that - "up and over the four-foot bridge" ? Not sure.

Shame

I remember watching him on TV with my father as a boy,he had a huge amount of courage and lived life like every minute was his last,he was a great character and it will be a long time till we see his like again.

Another hero of mine was Eddie Kidd...he is more or less totally paralized now because of a stunt that went wrong. I saw him on the TV a few years back and it was very sad to see him so ill.
