_eh_, yes:
' Evel Knievel and Kanye West have worked it out. Late last year Knievel sued West over the video “Touch the Sky” where West portrayed “Evel Kanyevel” and tried to jump a rocket-powered motorcycle over a canyon. Knievel failed to get a real rocket over the Snake River Canyon in Idaho in 1974.
Knievel thought West’s stunt hurt his trademarked image and furthermore said the “vulgar and offensive” images damaged his reputation. He also accused the 29-year-old rapper of using the image to “promote his filth to the world.”
The two did agree to a meeting before the suit reached the courts, and this week they announced that led to an undisclosed settlement. Meeting West changed his mind about the whole thing, Knievel said.
“I thought he was a wonderful guy and quite a gentleman,” he said. '
- Well at least he got all that sorted out before he reached the stunt park in the sky._eh_

There goes another hero. Considering I spent the ages of 2 through 12 in the 70's I had my fair share Evil Knieval action playsets and Colorforms. RIP you crazy mad sonofabitch...between you and Bruce Lee, you ruled the 70's...

Tough news. The man had a rough end to his days due to his broken body. Rest in piece, Evel.
