You'd be too young too remember the spectacle of his Dad >soaring into the Snake River instead of over it :-) They showed some pretty nasty scenes of stuff his father did. I will say that the shocking videos show AFTER it made my stomach turn some. Knieval made it look too easy landing that thing on the ramp.. I don't know how much I like seeing that stuff live though. I said to a friend of mine "Wellll at least they didn't ask his daughter what it would be like to be an orphan in less than 30 minutes". But I guess it goes with the territory.
