This is all that remains of the ramp where Evel Knieval made is ill-fated attempt to jump the Snake River Canyon in Idaho. When you stand at the top and look across, you can't help but ask yourself..... "WTF was he thinking!"

Thanks for posting these scenes. I remember watching the ill fated attempt. I guess he new it wasn't going to happen as he he deployed the parachute almost immediately after takeoff. He must have been paid well for the attempt, because the preparations were not cheap.
