    Evil Knievel Costume

    Evil Knievel CostumeAlthough not too many people may be tempted to try any of the amazing stunts that Evil Knievel did over his 15 year career as a daredevil, many would be willing to dress up like him and pretend for awhile.

    With his recent death in 2007, Knievel has come back into the limelight enough for people to remember him again. He is remembered as an honest man that always kept his word and one that tried to pass on his anti drug message to kids in any way he could.

    An Evil Knievel costume tends to remind one of a patriotic version of Elvis. Start out with the required white jumpsuit and you are halfway there. Add some red, white and blue stars and stripes, a matching cape, white boots and a helmet and you will be ready to start jumping over bonfires or semi trucks too.

    Start lining up the hot wheels across the living room floor and see how many you can jump!
