Sometime in the late 90's when I was living in SLC I heard Jim Rome interview him on the radio and (I'm paraphrasing) Rome asked him if he had any regrets. He said that he had one and related the above story. Rome then says, so you regret having beaten this man. Knievel says, no he deserved it but I should never have done it myself, I should have sent someone to do it.

LOL! Funny story. Arch seems fit- let's send him.
