In the 1970’s Evel Knievel attempted the world’s longest distance two-wheeled motorcycle jump of 146 feet. The world watched in awe as he did what seemed impossible and defied the rules of gravity.
Now the world will be astonished once more, as three modern day Evel Knievel’s attempt to take his feat to a whole new level and conquer the phenomenal distance of 300 feet.

America’s Seth Enslow, Ryan Capes and Australia’s Robbie Maddison share the fierce obsession and passion to claim this extreme sports accolade as their own. This will now become a reality for one of them, as the trio will battle it out for the world’s most death defying Guinness World Record when Rockstar Energy Drink presents the Crusty Demons Night of World Records at Calder Park Raceway on Saturday 29 March 2008.

At the first Crusty Demons Night of World Records in 2005, Trigger Gum set the official world record for the longest jump on a two-wheeled motorcycle with a staggering jump of 277 feet. In March that record is set to be smashed with Ryan Capes already unofficially eclipsing this figure and Enslow and Maddison stating their intentions to take their place in history.
