Divinely inspired daredevil

    From the Niagara Falls Review:

    Gene Sullivan’s on Team Jesus.

    It says so on the back of his blue golf shirt. The white lettering on the back proclaims his faith loudly. So does the red cross on the front, emblazoned with a man on a motorcycle alongside the words “Jump for Jesus.”

    But it’s when he suits up in a special leather uniform and jumps on his Honda XR650 bike and jumps through a wall of fire that his faith is most clear.

    It’s symbolic of his own path, from what he is convinced would have been one of darkness into the light of faith.

    “It’s the biggest jump I ever did,” said the 61-year-old, who will perform the act five times during Daredevil Days on Queen Street. “And I didn’t have too much to do with it.”
