David Hasselhof is a living legend. In the TV industry, they call him Goldfinger. In the 1980's, he became the answer America had been looking for to James Dean when he played one of the most rebellious TV characters in television history, Michael Knight - The Knightrider. By driving a black sports car that could actually TALK, unlike Jimmy Saville, he really DID make young boys dreams come true. When the show ended, people were saying he should retire and go out in a blaze of Glory like Muhamad Ali. But he didn't. He came back with the kind of sucker punch, even Ali would have been proud of. No one could have imagined that by making soft porn available at 6pm on a Saturday afternoon, they would have the most popular TV show of all time. David did, and he called it, Baywatch. Goldfinger had struck again and it made him so popular in Germany, they invited him to sing on top of the Berlin wall while they pulled it down. Through his pioneering television, he will quite simply, live forever.
