Daredevil Wednesday

In the spirit of Buffalo Chip CEO Rod Woodruff’s favorite mantra, “Ride Free, Take Risks,” you’re about to witness attempts at some of the riskiest stunts ever imagined with the triumphant return of Daredevil Wednesday!

Make your way to the Buffalo Chip amphitheater on Wednesday, Aug. 7 to see a series of dangerous stunt performances including a new attempt by Kyle Ives and Blake Wallenda – The Highwire Wheel of Death.

For over 43 years, you’ve had the chance to see top daredevils attempting the wildest stunts including Nine Toes’ Burning Wall Crash, Rob Foley’s Burning Sh**house Jump, Big Ed Beckley’s Junk Bike Meltdown, Robbie Knievel’s Main Stage Jump and Doug Danger’s 22-Car Jump, to name a few.

This tradition reached a death-defying climax with Daredevil Wednesday in 2013. As seen on CMT, Clint Ewing attempted the longest motorcycle ride through a tunnel of fire but seconds after entering the flames, he crashed through the side, barely escaping with his life!

In 2023, the Buffalo Chip went even bigger with the Death Wire Daredevil Spectacular! First, Shawn Ives jumped over 11 cars in honor of Robbie Knievel. Then highwire walker Blake Wallenda and motorcycle stuntman Kyle Ives attempted what even the legends Karl Wallenda and Evel Knievel would not…

Over the packed amphitheater, Blake skywalked an 800-foot highwire, where midway across, Kyle jumped over him with his motorcycle!

Following last year’s thrilling triumph, you’re getting another heart-stopping series of stunts as the Chip brings back Daredevil Wednesday in 2024.

Before Theory of a Deadman and Hinder, Blake and Kyle will join forces again! This time, Blake will walk a highwire Wheel of Death, and Kyle will jump a motorcycle through a ring of fire that hangs below it.

There will be a ton of insane stunts to kick off the evening leading up to the Highwire Wheel of Death, including Unsung Zero and Regular-Sized Joe bursting through a wall of Monster on minibikes in the Monster Wall Smash, and Shawn Ives breaking through a fire wall while riding on top of a drift car.

Don’t miss your chance to celebrate the legacy of daredevilism at the Sturgis Rally with an evening filled with death-defying stunts. Reserve your passes now!
