Some say it was the spirit of Evil Knievel as he went through the red lights and lowered barrier arms! 194947 194948

His cigar smoke got in his eyes so he missed the signals and barrier.

Another Darwin candidate. Helmet was for show, not strapped.

That is one heck of a hitch on the bike for the trailer to be able to hold the bike up with it dangling like I had seen in other photos.

He told police he was trying to clear rain water off his visor. Do you think RainX or some similar might have helped keep his visor clearer?

Given the details provided, I don't really think that ANYTHING to help keep his visor clear would've helped all that much! :yikes:

He did that to himself all by himself, and it sounds/looks like it was a pure fluke that he survived! :rolleyes:
