They made a western movie in Mexico named “La mula de Cullen Baker”. Cullen Bakers mule.

Claiborne was shot and the last thing he said as a dying declaration...his last words were "Buckskin Frank Leslie killed Johnny Ringo. I saw him do it." A dying declaration is pretty damn strong. It's admissible in every court in America and can get you the D penalty.

❤

I did not hear one "horrifying" fact.

Love this

I was with you until you said , He was a Beatle 🤣😩

Let's embrace AI... Terminator was just a movie series. WHAT could ever go wrong?!

The story I heard was that he got lost in the desert without a horse and became delusional and shot himself either because of the delusion or to end his own torment.

What in the AI fever dream hell did I just listen to??😳

"Ringo was in the band, The Beatles." I shit you not. Said that. What could go wrong with AI? 😳😡🤬👹

Another reason for the foot rails on the bar-if you were unable to stand with 1 foot on the rail, you were too drunk to be served.

I heard it in another story that Frank still might have killed him

Truth is, they ran the entire Spectrum from a dirt floor and a bar made from a board across two barrels, to very fancy establishments.---- So many of the western movies WERE accurate. The point of the video title was lost and meaningless and went around in circles. AI must have made it up

No one is ever going to convince me that everything in The Ballad of Buster Scruggs was not 100% factual.

Bc this video looked interesting, I was Really looking forward to watching it, as I very much enjoy learning about historical figures like the Infamous Johnny Ringo- And then, at the 9:16 mark, I heard “Ringo was a member of the band The Beatles”- Are you Frigging Kidding me?! And that’s where I Stopped watching the video with a Thumbs Down for making SUCH a Ridiculous mistake!

Some of the most famous people in the old west were from Iowa.

Like the sheriff who was the star of Blazing Saddles? He was black. 😅

07:29 "Even noisy places like Dodge City had signs like this one"... Then the video shows no sign. 🤔

Myth 1 is like mosquitoes killed more American soldiers in the Pacific than the Japanese did. Diseases kill.

The evidence is overwhelming that Pat Garrett didn’t kill Billy the kid, but he shot and killed the wrong man. He knew it too, and covered up, and making it look like he killed Billy the Kid. I’m not positive Billy was Brushy Bill, but the evidence is stronger he is, than he died being shot by Pat Garrett.

A video steeped in some of the purest BS this side of the Arizona/California border.

Like I commented on @Mattnoble80-s comment, the portraited battles never happened the way they happened or even were written down happened. Also, that pistol you remarked about wasn't used nearly as much as you said. They were the Navy 1861 & the Army 1861 and they were from the Civil War. For the longest time they were black powder until smokeless came to be. Then those revolvers had the conversion kit on that allowed the buckaroo to use the shells. And also regarding pistols. The average range rider carried a pistol on his hip all the time. It wasn't because of range wars, its because they used them to turn cattle back around when they stampeded. They also were used to shoot small game for the cook to use

Johnny Ringo was a member of the Beatles? 😂😂

The first myth is that the Red me were "native". They were just as invasive as the Europeans. Just a few centuries earlier.

Robbing only one stagecoach hardly qualifies as a legend.

Technically cowboy or vaqueros originated in medieval Spain not Mexiko.

Funny thing is I lived in the Southwest and the history the natives told contradicts some of your 21st century Woke crap! Just saying...

So....What does your thumbnail photo have to do with the story?...I never saw any mention of semi-auto pistols in your video! Just sayin'!

Movies show the hero shooting hundreds of shots at the baddies with their six-gun. Of course this is completely false- It would be no more than a dozen shots out of a six-gun before reloading. 🤔

Cowyboys didn´t wear pistols as seen in the Hollywood movies, they were cumbersom and could get in the way when working. If they did have any gun it was kept in their bedroll and taken out for when needed for hunting. Some cowboys did have small pocket pistols that they kept in their chap pocket but this was not a common practice.

sorry but very doubtful especially without verififable and credible evidence

well, the only really bad thing in tombstone is the price for gas if you didn't fill up in, say,. Tucson on your way to Douglas or wherever . and yes, you can watch a reenactment of the shootout like 2-4 times a day, depending on weather and day of the week. tourist -y stuff like that. couple of nice restaurants, too.

VERY WELL DONE. having lived there over 20 years til i moved to mexico, i have been thru tombstone at least30 times. they had gun control that would make NYC proud. ONLY criminals still carried, hidden, not on the hip. thank you for an excellent presentation. let me know, please, if you build/ write any other videos.

“Cowboys are an American invention”. And then you go on to say that they came from South America , which makes them undeniably an American invention. You do know that the United States is NOT all of America?

Why not use actual period photographs to illustrate your points rather than Hollywood movie clips? Particularly for the hats.

7 myths? Try about 7,777, Virtually everything everyone thinks they know about it is a "myth", and that's putting it charitably. Everything in movies is bollocks, from the depictions of town-layouts to gunbelts (no idiot kept his bullets in exterior belt-loops, because those didn't exist). Most photos are heavily doctored, most news articles were outragious hoaxes, and most promoted famous people outright frauds (including such luminaries and Danial Boone and Wild Bill Hickock). Read your mileswmathis updates daily.

So the Old West was populated solely by Clint Eastwood?

Isn't the fast draw a myth?

The large mirror behind the bar was in place so patrons could see behind them to aboid being shot in the back. There were no stools to sit on at the bar ad it would be difficult to draw a pistol when seated.

The item is pronounced Shaps, not Chaps.

My son and I would love to visit Tombstone

Buckskin Frank Leslie killed him. And it was well known at that time.

Clickbait !Don't waste your time...doesn't mention anything about the topic until the last 20 seconds

I would add, that although the west could be a violent place, the old South of the 1800's was probably more violent than the west. Certainly there was much more extrajudicial violence, lynchings, murders, etc., in the South.

My buddy's girlfriend said it must've been hard for the pioneers in the winter as there was no one to plow the highways.

Also, Michael did not row the boat “ashore” . He left it about 30 feet out, and waded from there. But he saw a men watching hum and shouted, “Hey you! As far as you’re concerned, I rowed that boat ashore!” The guy said, “Yeah, sure. Whatever.” So that’s how that story got started.

SHOCKING! BRUTAL! QUACK!

Don't include everyone with these so called myths.

Two things make the rest less believable. One you stated the "Recorded" deaths on the Oregon Trail was between 10,000 and 30,000. How can the number but like if they are "recorded". Two you make the claim that there were 8 bank robberies cover 15 states. So did most of these BANK ROBBERIES only involve 1/2 of a bank. Good try but not spot on with everything.
