Evel Knievel finds God

All his life, daredevil Evel Knievel told people that he didn't believe in God. Fortunately, Knievel was saved a few months before his Nov. 30 death, according to his final interview, which was published in Maxim magazine. Ontario Now ran an excerpt:
During the interview Evel opens about how he found God a few months ago, in a hotel room in Daytona Beach. 'All my life I was an atheist,' he says. 'I’d tell people I didn’t believe Jesus could walk on water. Then something happened in Daytona. God spoke to me. He said, ‘Robert, you got to stop tellin’ people you don’t believe in me. I been takin’ care of you for years, watchin’ over you. I done everything for you. And you go tell people you don’t believe in me. You gotta stop it.' Evel puts his hands over his face, then sobs, 'I told God I’d never insult him again.'

There's a daredevil in heaven now.
