He’ll make them easily. Hell, he might even backflip that Indian over one.

Love Travis - been following his career since his Loretta Lynn’s days. Some day he’s going to start feeling those 40 concussions though.

Freaking Goldberg and Johnny Knoxville doing commentary!



Goldberg currently downplaying beating Hogan in the Georgia Dome as if it wasn’t a bigger feat than a dopey motorcycle jump.

Love Pastrana. Used to watch him on his 125cc SOBE Suzuki when he was with Kevin Windham. He is such a cool, humble guy and is the best at what he does.

You sure about that?

What kind of bike did Evel Knievel ride?

He started-off on a 350cc Honda, switched to a 750cc Norton in 1966, then Triumph from 1966-1968, Laverda 750cc American Eagle from December 1969 to April 1970, and in December 1970 Harley-Davidson became Knievel's sponsor and he began riding an XR-750– the bike he is most commonly associated with.

Those bikes aren't even close to those iron lung bikes Knievel was using back in the day...

These jumps are nothing for Pastrana...

Edit: He just admitted they were lighter and faster..lol

Was this pre-recorded? Doesn't look really live.

1. They keep saying he's trying to do something nobody's done before but Robbie Knievel successfully did the jump.

2. Carey Hart just called Evel Knievel "the first true American hero."
