Summary: Evel Kneivel is awesome
Comment: I loved evel kneivel, I think absolute evel is the best documentary yet about the famous daredevil. It goes into great detail about his life, his jumps, and his failures. I have watched it over and over, I do not think I will ever get tired of watching a great program like this. I even had a evel kneivel bike that I got for christmas one year. I was the only kid in my small town that had one, and oh boy I got hurt on it a few times. I love Evel, Harley Davidson motorcycles and this fine video from the history channel.

Comment: This wasn't just the best biography of knevel imaginable, it was one of the best biographies the History Channel has ever done, if not THE best. Way to go, a real piece of americana.

Summary: A Compelling Story of the Original American Daredevil
Comment: "Absolute Evel" is a fascinating story about a dying breed in this country - The ultimate entrepreneur. Until I watched this DVD I was under a totally different opinion of Evel Knievel. However, after I saw how he grew up, everything he experienced as an individual, as a family man, how he crafted his rise to fame/success, as well as his failures in life, I had a new found respect for this man. This is an excellent movie to watch if you think that holding down a 8 to 5 job is tough way to make a living.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great buy for any Evel Fan
Comment: The History Channel did a great job on the docu, having the real Evel Knievel do his own bio was a plus. He gives you the only true idea of how he really lived his life. The only problem I could see was it could have been another hour longer.

His life story reads like a soap opera script. Born Robert Craig Knievel, this wild, young man from the rough mining town of Butte, Montana dreamed of becoming rich and famous. After years of struggle, Bobbie's alter ego Evel Knievel became the world's most famous daredevil. His exploits are legendary and it's unlikely his accomplishments--or notoriety--will ever be duplicated. Now, he's paying a high price for the life he led. He lives in constant pain from the incredible abuse his body suffered during his daredevil days. As he enters the twilight of life, this 2-hour special may be his last chance at a public forum. He's a man who is outspoken, outrageous, at times hilarious, but always fascinating. From humble beginnings in Butte to iconic status and everything in between, Evel candidly shares every aspect of his life. The aging daredevil reflects on his incredible experiences and how he would like to be remembered. This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.
