The jumps were anti-climatic. Evel was the PT Barnum of OUR generation. Super promoter, super salesman, totally not politically correct, and broke a lot of bones and made a lot of money. We will never see the likes of him again. Today, whether it's Nascar or stunts, everything is too carefully measured to an exact degree for the sake os safety. Evel never had those luxuries.
Rest in Peace Evel, and like Todd said, thanks for the thrills.
