Bud Ekins, Stunt Cyclist, Dies at 77

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/12/ar...es&oref=slogin

Bud Ekins, a devil-may-care motorcyclist who went from racing through the mountain trails and desert rambles of Southern California in the late 1940s to renown as the stuntman double for Steve McQueen in a 65-foot flight over a barbed-wire barrier, died Saturday in Los Angeles. He was 77 and lived in Hollywood.
