Daredevil Robbie Knievel to jump Mirage volcano
Daredevil Robbie Knievel will soon jump a volcano.
A Las Vegas volcano, that is.
Knievel will take to his motorcycle on New Year's Eve and attempt to jump over the new volcano at the Mirage (the new volcano will begin erupting again on Dec. 8).
The stunt will be broadcast live on FOX.
On New Year's Eve 1967, Knievel's father Evil Knievel had his famous but unsuccessful jump over the water fountain at Caesars Palace.
In 1989, Robbie Knievel later accomplished what his dad couldn't do.
The jump attempt over the "erupting" Mirage volcano will be at 6 p.m., enough time to move aside for hundreds of thousands of revelers expected on the Strip for Las Vegas' biggest night of fireworks.
