: Dave, I know Eddie Kidd was an experienced
: jumper but, what was with that takeoff ramp?
: It might as well have been flat. It didn't
: hardly create any lift at all. This must
: have been early in his career. And those
: who were waiting for him to crash into
: them??? They must have drunk the same juice
: Eddie did. Bizarre jump to say the least.
: Thanks for the upload though. It was
: entertaining.

: I think Eddie is a great jumper but look at
: this ramp setup. Wow. Evel was criticized
: for his 14 bus jump setup by some in the
: Ohio Media. But Evel caught more air then
: Eddie did. Eddie didn't even clear the
: distance but he did hang on. This was more
: of a falling off the ramp kind of thing. And
: he ended up hitting his father and breaking
: his legs.
