Evel Knievel was perhaps the most famous daredevil in the world. His death on November 30, 2007, was preceded by years of constant battle against the persistent pain of broken bones and severe trauma after jumping and crashing motorcycles.
In his 16 years of performing Evel Knievel broke about 37 bones in his body. He spent more than half the years 1966 to 1973 in hospitals. By the time he quit performing in 1981, he had undergone 14 major operations, with several steel plates and metal pins set into him.
