On October 25, 1975, Evel Knievel made history when he successfully jumped 14 Greyhound buses at Kings Island. The jump was the last big jump of the legendary stuntman’s career, and one of his most notable. Knievel’s successful jump set a new audience viewing record for ABC’s Wide World of Sports, with a 22.3 rating and 52 percent share – a record that still stands today.
On May 24, 2008 Evel's son, Robbie Knievel, jumped 24 trucks soaring 200 feet in the air and breaking the distance record in what was expected to be one of the last big jumps of his career.
Here's a handful of photos from Robbie's historic record setting jump.
