Released in February 1994, while the movie 8 Seconds was about Lane, it was not a documentary. It was part fact, but it also was part fiction. More about 8 Seconds “facts vs. fiction” can be viewed at www.lanefrost.com/8seconds.htm.

Twenty-five years ago, Lane Frost died in a bull riding accident during Cheyenne Frontier Days. His life – and death – changed rodeo forever.
