77th birth anniversary of late Kitty O’Neil
Google Doodle: Kitty O’Neil, a famous American stuntwoman and actress who was deaf from a young age, was commemorated by Google on her 77th birthday anniversary with a doodle featuring her in a yellow jumpsuit.

She went on to become one of Hollywood’s most famous stunt drivers. Google celebrated Kitty O’Neil’s 77th birth anniversary with a doodle that depicted her in a yellow jumpsuit. Despite being deaf since childhood, she became a well-known stunt driver in Hollywood and held the women’s absolute land speed record until 2019.

Who was Kitty O’Neil?

She was born in 1946, to a Cherokee Native American mother and Irish father in Corpus Christi in US’ Texas. She faced a major setback in life when she contracted multiple diseases, just months into the world, which led to her turning deaf. However, Neil never let it become a roadblock for her.

She mastered different communication modes to beat the odds and in fact, saw her deafness as an asset, Google said. Her love for driving was met with a hurdle when she got a wrist injury and illness, cutting short her driving career but Neil was committed to achieve the dream of becoming a professional athlete, Google said further.

She tried some of the adventurous high-speed sports including water skiing and motorcycle racing and performed acts like falling from unnerving heights while being set on fire.

She began a career as a stunt double for big screens in the 1970s. Featured in The Bionic Woman (1976), Wonder Woman (1977-1979), she was the first woman to join Stunts Unlimited, an organisation for Hollywood’s top stunt performers, Google shared about her journey. She bid farewell to the world in 2018.

In 1976, O’Neil set the women’s absolute land speed record driving a hydrogen peroxide-powered three-wheeled rocket car, reaching an average speed of 825.127 kmph, with a top speed of 999 kmph. This earned her the title of the “fastest woman in the world.” She also set a women’s high-fall record of 127 feet (39 m) while performing as a stunt double in the 1979 episode of the Wonder Woman TV series, which she would later break.


O’Neil died in 2018 at the age of 72 due to pneumonia. In 2019, she was honored with the Oscars in Memoriam award. A biopic about her life, called Silent Victory: The Kitty O’Neil Story, was released in 1979 and showcased her land speed record achievement.
