The longest jump by Evel Knievel was an impressive 4,000 feet, achieved on a rocket-powered motorcycle during his attempt to jump the Snake River Canyon in Idaho on September 8, 1974. However, this jump was not a traditional motorcycle jump; rather, it involved a specially designed rocket, and Knievel did not complete the jump as intended, landing in the canyon instead.

i am pretty shure it is from the skywalk in the middle of the canyon, definite yes, but there are small canyons that are part of the Grand Canyon system such as Marble Canyon where you can jump from the Navajo Bridge -- not part of the main canyon that most people think of as the Grand Canyon but it's about a 200 foot drop between narrow canyon walls and that may suffice.
