    been following Eddies progress as most of you have too i'm sure. He's finished after 50 days. Truly humbling achievement.

    When I was growing up Eddie Kidd was about as cool as it gets and the best looking dude ever, remember the 501 adverts? most boys wanted to be him, me included.
    such a tragedy what happened and he completed the jump. just slipped back after

    what an example to everyone.

    How cool is that, I too loved this guy as a kid, a true role model. :)

    Some modern day footballers with their lack of morals and integrity could learn a few things here.

    I used to love my evel knievel wind up toy, fantastic! :cool:
