My slightly obssesive behavior required that I look up the cast then search for pictures of them on the internet. though I couldn't find a recent picture of him By his background (having done the motorcycle jump in the great escape) I figured it had to be him. Though it does look a lot like Howard Platt.

Yes he is. But Bob is younger than Bud and he got's a real wild look in his eyes.

My favorite standard trivia answer is "Bert D'Angelo!!" I always have that ready for any question.

What's the top speed of a goat? "Bert D'Angelo!"

terminal velocity for an avg. adult male is 193.25 mph from 20,000 feet. Pygmy goats can reach a terminal velocity of 202.86mph. It's their tiny legs and hooves with such a small survace area that allow them to achieve such speeds, even though they'll be kicking like mad. Higher speeds are obviously attainable if dropped from extremely high altitudes, however no testing has been done as there has yet to be developed an oxygen mask for a goat. The goat would likely die from lack of oxygen if dropped from heights over 100,000 ft, and animal rights activists would go berzerk.

If it's any consolation, Ekins was the top desert racer in his day.  He deserves to be thought of as more than 'just' Steve McQueen's stunt double.
