45 Years Ago Today, Evel Knievel...

...attempted the famous Caesars Palace Jump. I know some history regarding the jump, but I heard for the 1st time today that actress Linda Evans, and her then husband John Derek shot the jump/crash footage. I'm not going to post the vid, I'm sure you've seen it. Instead, I'm posting some new pix that I've been collecting the past few months for this day. RIP Evel, we miss you.
