Ron Star — United States
Ron Star hails from Staten Island, NY. Ron always had a daredevil spirit in him. As a child, he would climb tall trees and watched a lot of Evel Knievel. In 1976 he got his first motorcycle and after he graduated from high school in 1985, Ron made the big leap into the exciting world of being a motorcycle daredevil.
By 1987, he was doing large jumps at venues such as the Englishtown Raceway Park in New Jersey.
His biggest jump to date was over 20 cars. Besides jumping, he did fire stunts, speed skating as well as tight rope walking.
