Motorcycle stuntman Robert "Evel Knievel" died in Florida Friday at the age of 69.
Born in Butte, Montana, Oct. 17, 1938, Knievel made a name for himself for his daredevil feats, jumping rows of vehicles, natural chasms and other obstacles. He claimed to have broken every bone in his body at least twice.
The death was reported by Butte architect and Knievel's graphic design artist Bob Corbett, who said Knievel's wife, Krystal Kennedy, rushed him to the hospital earlier today.
