Evel passed away today at the age of 69, he was suffering from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosi, which is an incurable lung condition.

Just last night I was reading an Evel Knievel interview in Maxim Magazine, and he mentioned that in 2003, his doctors told him he wouldn’t live past 2006. He was on borrowed time and he seemed at peace with it, he also mentioned that he had been an atheist for almost his entire life. According to Evel, god spoke to him in a hotel room last year and let him know he did indeed exist. The interviewer mentioned Evel started to cry after recalling some of the things he had said about god in the past.

Anyways, it’s cool he squashed his beef with the lord before he died. If they don’t let him in he could always jump the pearly gates in his motorcycle.
