deadline.com:

Robbie Knievel, son of superstar ’70s motorcycle daredevil Evel Knievel and an accomplished showman in his own right, died in hospice care after a battle with pancreatic cancer, according to multiple reports.

He was 60. Like his father, Kneivel was adroit at leveraging his abilities on a motorcycle into a media spectacle. Over the course of his career, he had eight live television specials centered around his feats.

In mid-2005, Knievel starred in an A&E series called Knievel’s Wild Ride. He also co-starred with The Fall Guy actor Lee Majors in a pilot for a series to be called Hollywood Stunts.

Knievel was, like his father, a regular on the talk show circuit. In 1996, he jumped over a number of emergency vehicles during an appearance on the Tonight Show With Jay Leno.
