Original X-ray of Evel’s spine and hip following a spinal fusion surgery done in 2004 at St. Joseph's Hospital in Tampa, FL. The X-ray size is 8" x 10" and shows both the spinal fusion and artificial hip implants. The hardware in Evel's hip was also implanted in 1997 in Tampa, Florida. This x-ray reflects his full name as well as the name of the doctor who treated him post surgery. This image was taken in Butte, MT and was done as a result of Evel’s complaints of continuing back pain. Ultimately Evel had a permanent pain pump implanted. Evel broke his back a minimum of four different times during his career. However, Evel was a true fighter and found his non-stop back pain manageable until undergoing this surgery in 2004.
