Evel Knievels

Motorcycles are among the chosen instruments of speed demons and excitement junkies. The motorcycle has all the characteristics needed for a good rush. It is light, it is fast and it offers little or no protection to the rider making it a dangerous machine to operate.

Since we are kids, we have watched professional dare devils the likes of Evel Knievel who would jump long ramps at high speeds. Often times they even put fire or other dangerous materials to the equation to increase the danger and excitement even more to the delight of the onlookers.

Do you also remember all the mishaps, the crashes, the skids, explosions and accidents suffered by the likes of Evel Knievel? Evel Knievel sustained so many broken bones, spinal injuries, concussions and lacerations that sometimes it is a wonder how he could still function at all.

Evel Knievel is a professional stunt driver. He does stunts for a living and with all the precaution that professional stunt drivers should have. Even so, he suffered serious injuries that entail costly medical expenses from all the treatments, surgeries, rehabilitations and future medical costs.

Unless you are a professional, earning money to do dangerous stunts, don’t be a daredevil on wheels. Who will pay for your medical expenses and the bike you crash and victimize others? Who will pay for your living allowance while you are treating or unable to perform any work? Unless you want to live a crooked and painful life, and a poorer one at that don’t try it at home so to speak.
