You're Soaking In It!

Via PRBop, Stunts for Nimrods:

Dawn® dishwashing liquid with new "Lift Action" formula will stage a wash-a-thon of record-breaking proportions. At Irwindale Speedway, Dawn will prove that 10,000 plates can be washed with just one bottle. Then, the dishes will be stacked for Kaptain Robbie Knievel's death-defying motorcross leap.

[...]

Prior to this jump, Team Dawn -- a group of 300 washers, stackers, caterers and runners -- will serve an egg breakfast (leaving a tough food-cleaning residue) to at least 1,000 expected attendees; dirty another 10,000 plates; and wash the more than 10,000 dishes -- all in just one day. Team Dawn will then carefully stack the clean dishes on the pre-assembled jump platform.

Team Dawn will assemble the 9-inch plates in seven 8-foot-high specially-constructed 120-foot-long dish racks -- spanning 150-feet across the parking lot at Irwindale Speedway. Kaptain Knievel's engineering team developed the jump formation to challenge the daredevil's quest for distance records and to ensure his safety.

"I'm always interested in distance jumps with a unique flavor and this one grabbed my attention," said Knievel. "After jumping 18-wheelers, cars and the Grand Canyon, I want to go the distance against a bottle of dishwashing liquid."

Jumping the Snake River Canyon this ain't. But regardless of his son's defiance of death sans dishpan hands ("I can see myself!"), you gotta give props to any 65-year-old "who uses a diamond encrusted walking stick filled with bourbon." As god is my witness, I will be that man thirty years from now.

And just for the hell of it: Evel Bologna. In big chunks.
