Salt Walther Stories ~ Salt Goes Evil Knievel on the Banks of the GreatMiami River

As you may know Salt had a personality bigger than life. He sometimes did wild things just to fill his adrenalin needs. Salt and his best friend Chuck were driving a rented Mustang one night and Salt got the idea of jumping the flood levy on the Great Miami River down by The Boathouse which was the headquarters for Dayton Walther Racing.

He had been rehearsing this stunt in his mind for some time and had worked with a few Hollywood stuntmen during his California days and new basically how to do it. Unbeknownst to Chuck, Salt says hang on Ace! That was his nickname for Chuck and away they went accelerating towards the levy. Salt hit the levy at an angle just as the stuntmen had told and now they were airborne.
