Knievel’s stunt big success
Knievel, the son of the late stunt legend Evel Knievel, jumped over 21 Hummer vehicles, four less than had originally been planned because of a headwind gusting more than 50km/h.
The landing ramp protected the last three of the SUVs in the line, though Knievel easily cleared the vehicles and avoided crashing even after hitting the ramp off-centre.
