Jackass star Johnny Knoxville has been injured while filming a tribute to Evel Knievel for MTV. The special, under the over-seeing eye of freestyle God Travis Pastrana, is due to be aired around February 23 - and will most likely include the accident that left Knoxville bleeding heavily from his nads after trying a backflip on a motocross bike.Here’s what Knoxville himself said: “Just got back from Oklahoma where I was shooting ‘Mat Hoffman’s tribute to Evel Knievel.’ Had a ball, too, even though I almost lost my own balls in the process. Don’t want to give too much away because the tribute airs ... Read Full Story

Approx. price: £29.99 Age range: 5+ Website: www.flairplc.co.uk Thirty or more years ago, I ripped the paper off a Christmas present to reveal the Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle. Even the box looked exciting, with breathtaking artwork of Evel in action. The toy itself proved just as exiting. Just like the real Evel (who was still jumping over things on his motorbike at the time), this scale action figure was utterly fearless. Point him directly at the skirting board and he’d ride flat out into it without batting an eyelid. The recent re-launch of this much-loved 1970s toy created quite a stir, and our Retro ...

I couldn't help it! When I saw this I had to post it even though it has nothing to do with Model Trains! Its the Evel Knieval Stunt Set which I remember so well from the 70's. "The 1970s may well have been the decade that taste forgot but it was peppered with all-American heroes: from the Six Million Dollar Man and Vegas-era Elvis to Fonzie, Muhammad Ali and Burt Reynolds. But for lovers of derring-do, there was only one idol worth worshipping: Evel Knievel. Whether he was plummeting down a canyon, careering headfirst into the side of Caesar's Palace, or going for a ... Read Full Story

Kanye West is pretty lucky that he was only sued by Evel Knievel for using his likeness in the video for "Touch The Sky." According to files just released by the FBI, Knievel was known to crack skulls all over the country, from San Francisco to New York. The daredevil, who died last year in Florida, was bad ass enough to warrant a 290-page file from the Feds. Of those, 202 of them were heavily redacted so organizations like the AP couldn't come after those blocked out for quotes to just have them say no, fearing a Ghost Rider -esque death from a beyond-the-grave ...

It's an Ayn Rand smackdown. ... I enjoyed these lines: William James once argued that every philosophic system sets out to conceal, first of all, the philosopher’s own temperament: that pre-rational bundle of preferences that urges him to hop on whatever logic-train seems to be already heading in his general direction. This creates, as James put it, “a certain insincerity in our philosophic discussions: the potentest of all our premises is...

Brian Regan Jokes What were you thinking right before you hit the ground, Evel? What were you thinking?' I remember thinking: 'Hey, did I turn off the iron?' Then, my leg cracked in half. Then I was thinking: 'Hey, maybe I should get a puppy?
