i told my gf this and she was like "who?" and i was like are you fucking kidding? and we were out to dinner, and she asked the waitress if she knew who he was, and she didnt.

regardless, no tip was left.

I love that quote; something along the lines of "a man can fall down many times, but he only fails when he refuses to get up"

Though, and no disrespect whatsoever intended, did he actually make many of his later jumps? I only ask because I just saw footy of him taking bigger and bigger slams

Not to take it away from the guy; he had style: RIP
