Daredevil Evel Knievel Dead

We all know who Evel Knievel is….he’s the motorcycle riding stuntman we’ve all watched and loved over the years. Now, he’ll be riding his motorcycle up the heavenly highway.
According to his website, this legend is dead at the age of 69. He survived breaking every bone in his body at one time or another, but he finally lost the battle to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a terminal lung disease, on November 30. This comes after dealing with diabetes, hepatitis c, a liver transplant, and two strokes.
He will be remembered by millions of fans, as well as his wife, four children, fifteen grandchildren (with another on the way!), and other family members.
Knievel made headlines earlier this week when he sat down with Kanye West to discuss the lawsuit Knievel brought against Kanye for using his likeness in a video. The two settled the suit amicably.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
