That's 1 thing, about family. They are suppose to keep the legacy going and that's what his son, is doing now. God Bless His Family. I know how it is, to loose Mom or Dad.

HE WAS A BAAADDDDDDD MAAAANNNNN IN HIS DAYS!!! :thumbsup:

Sorry to hear this news. I so enjoy the boyhood memories I have of watching his stunts and being fascinated by it all. He may be gone but he will always be remembered for being the true original "dare devil".

I imagine him and Colin Mcrae getting on well up there and giving St Peter sleepless nights!!
