SCOOP: Knievel to jump Wembley

Robbie Knievel to replicate Dad's 1975 Wembley bus jump

Posted: 8 July 2008

Knievel attempted a 16-bus jump at Wembly in 1975

ACCORDING TO reports in the American media, Robbie Knievel - son of the famous Evel - is not only going to replicate his dad's Snake River Canyon Sky Cycle jump, the stunt that nearly killed him, but he's also going to come to the new Wembley Stadium to replicate his dad's famous jump over London buses there, too.

Speaking to the St Louis Post yesterday, Knievel, a grandfather at 46, said: "I'm going to Wembley Stadium in London to duplicate my dad's jump there, when he went over 16 buses. But they wanted me to do it in December. That's not going to happen. Who in their right mind wants to go to England in the winter?"

Yaaaar! Knievel jumping at Wembley again.

Where do we line up for the tickets?

Evil was the greatest, but he said 300ft couldn't be done.
