Richard Hammond Meets Evel Knievel

Before America's greatest stunt star's recent death, Top Gear host Richard Hammond fulfilled a childhood dream and spent four days with the daredevil legend Evel Knievel.

During a stunt spectacular, Evel reminiscences about his death-defying feats and recollects the triumph, glory and pain as he shares insights into crashes and the precarious balance between life and death.

The event is an extravaganza of Evel-inspired motorcycle stunts which attracts a throng of Evel's unique fans. With followers as individual as Evel himself, this is an experience Richard won't forget in a hurry. (Source: http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcone/listings/programme.shtml?day=tod)
