By Derek Davis
10th Dec 2020 | Local News
ON THIS DAY: In 1979, 20 year old stuntman Eddie Kidd accomplished a 'death-defying' motorcycle leap when he crossed an 80ft gap over a 50ft sheer drop above a viaduct at Maldon, Essex. He jumped the Great Wall of China in 1993, but his career ended after he suffered serious head injuries in 1996 at a Hell's Angels rally in Warwickshire.

Quote of the day:
My mechanic told me not to do the jump, but there were 20,000 people there, and I didn't want to let them down. That's the one thing I regret - maybe I should have been selfish.
Eddie KiddJoke of the day:
A daredevil was dared to walk backwards on a tightrope.- You could say he wasn't looking forward to it
