HOMEWORK(标蓝处存疑)
Who remembers when Evel Knieval tried to jump over the Snake River Canyon in the Rocky in 1974?
I’m the only one.
I do, I do. I was three?
Yes, Ok, yes.
He didn’t make it if you don't remember. That jump went down in history and now this weekend Hollywood stunt man Eddie Braun will try to finish what Evel Knieval started and he...Before he does it, he is joining us live.
Hey. All right.
“Eddie, this Is a very dangerous stunt. I have to ask why are you doing it?”
“Why am I doing it? Well, the…first of all, good morning. Thanks for having me. I'm doing… I met Evel Knieval as a small child, and he inspired me so much when I met him. I mean this is a man with a cape, come on. I wanted to be like him. And…and after thirty years of being a professional stunt man, what better way to finish out my career than to pay homage to the man that inspired me?”
“So you're doing this for your hero, but I gotta ask because I hear a lot of people this morning say you're crazy. You're gonna be propelled from a rocket 400 miles per hour. You have to go 2,000 feet. But your four kids, is it worth the risk?”
‘Yeah, the statement that I make, I’ll…I don't care if people think I'm crazy or not. I'm not. All I care about is what my four children think. And, and I'm doing something and the way that I'm doing it will stand the test of time and my children will be happy and proud. And what better life lesson than to you’re your kids through actions that you try and do things that are nearly impossible?”
“Okay. Have you practiced for something like this?”
“Well, you don't really get a chance to practice too much, but I do have thirty plus years of a career I'm very proud of as a professional stunt man.”
And Eminem is going to be helping you a little bit, right? Before this right? With some pump-up music? Lose yourself isn’t that kind of pump-up music?
Yeah, I had absolutely the... oh absolutely. There…there are songs I’ve been listening to, even to the drive here today. They just motivate me. One of the songs of Eminem’s is” Lose Yourself” which X everything, and next one is Alice Cooper’s “Hello Hooray.” Listen to both of them. They've been incredibly inspiring to me.”
“All right, and Eddie says he's gonna keep trying and trying until he makes it. It is his life goal. So we will be watching Eddie. Best of luck to you, Eddie.”
“Good luck.”
“Good luck, Eddie.”
“Thank you so much, everybody, thank you.” |
