Hi Santee, Thank you for the story of Ned Kelly. I was in the re-enactment of the capture of Ned and his gang in 1980 at Glenrowan. They sent a Steam train from Melbourne with actors as troopers and tourists for the day. If you ever get to Australia I’d be happy to take you to Glenrowan and show you around. I can also send you a little souvenir from the day if your interested? Thanks again
@@johnmccoll1046 That would be really super. Thanks!!! If I get out there (which I really want to do someday) we will definitely meetup and you can show me around.
Ahhhh I got so excited seeing this!! I'm Australian and an avid fan of all things wild west, the closest thing we had to a stereotypical wild west outlaw was Ned Kelly. He really tried to do right by his people.
Hi I 'am an Aussie and have always loved the old Wild West growing as a kid playing Cowboys and Indians. Have been a subscriber of your channel for many years, great channel. Great to see some of our Bushrangers (Outlaws) We had lots of them the first convicts that escaped and took to the bush were called Bolters and they mainly stole food and clothing just to survive . Other famous names Ben Hall, Johnny Gilbert, Captain Thunder Bolt. We went to Glenrowan a couple of months ago, I would say it is Australia's Tombstone.
Yippee Ki Yay Santee! Top notch video about a guy I really admire. No turn the other cheek for Ned. Once again, you make Saturday morning interesting.🤠
In an alternate reality an Australian TH-camr runs a channel called Victoria Ghostriders, and his channel is haunted by the ghost of Ned Kelly who never takes off his armored mask
Santee, this is so interesting. As ALWAYS, the additional, audio-visual material is topnotch. Hey, Ned Kelly deserves to be remembered. I had never even heard of him. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Im in the same boat. 1st I have heard of him. However I must admit I forget there are "other countries" that have an old west history. I must seek out this movie about Ned Kelly. While Santee was talking about it I was also thinking it sounds a lot like a Billy the Kid kind of story when he said pretty much that. 🙂
@@fishbonez5670 I couldn't agree more. "Bad boys" aren't unique to only our country. It looks like many of us hadn't heard of Ned Kelly, whose true story deserves to be heard. Billy the Kid is an excellent analogy. From what I've read of him, he was ***nowhere deserving of the nefarious reputation he's been associated with. 🤠👏🏻
I live a short drive from Glenrowan and visited the site a few times, and the jail in nearby Beechworth where he was held before being transferred to Melbourne. Not far north of here is Morgan’s Lookout, where another notorious bush ranger operated, Mad Dog Morgan. According to legend Ned was tough, but Morgan was a genuine psychopath. If you want to get an entertaining insight into bush rangers who aren’t Ned Kelly, I recommend a book called “Mad Dogs & Thunderbolts” by Ben Pobjie. Very informative and also very funny.
Congratulations Santee on a very well researched and presented summary of Ned. I'm not in his fan club so I do appreciate the way you have handled this.
I have the movie about him on DVD. I’m now going to have to get it out and watch it again. Great Video Santee! History is History, and I put Ole Ned right there along with Old West History too. 👍👍
That was so unexpected, but welcome. We, here in Australia, had an equally wild "west", but Hollywood stole the show. Did you know that the first feature film was abouy the Kelly shootout? Done in Australia. Right up to the early seventies, you could still buy the 577 450 Martini cartridge -- my right shoulder certainly remembers 😊
Aussie Aussie Aussie ... Oi Oi Oi ... 'as we are prone to exclaiming' ... actually there was a heap of bushrangers back then, but thanks for this, being an Aussie, it's nice to be recognized for our contribution to the world of outlaws ;)
Coincidentally, Ellen and I had JUST came across the 1970 movie with Mick Jagger playing Ned a couple days ago. We only watched a minute or 2 of it, we need to sit down in a quiet evening for the whole thing soon
I am reminded of the parallel in connection with the armor. Ned's legs remained exposed, and that was his undoing. Over 100 years later, the same fate befell one of the North Hollywood bank robbers, who was taken down by skipping rounds off the pavement underneath a vehicle the perp was using for cover. His own armor had protected him from many other shots, but they got him in the legs, forcing him to surrender. He didn't last long, but bled out on the pavement.
Police deliberately held off paramedics -- saying the scene wasn't ''safe''. Cops knew the CA courts would've let him off easy. An example about Cop Killers had to be made.
@@HootOwl513 Wrong on so many counts. I was living ten minutes from the scene when that happened. First, no one was killed but the two thugs, one of whom died from a self-inflicted shot. No cops died that day, nor civilians. Second, it was not confirmed that there were only two perps at that stage, as the live reports included witnesses who thought there were three. I was watching the local coverage in real time. In the heat of that crazy battle, nothing was certain. Not allowing medics to treat an already dying terrorist in what was still considered a live hot zone is simply a smart decision. Whatever you think about cops allowing "cop killers" do die without due process, you have no case to be made here. As to the CA courts letting him off easy, well that was already the history. Both perps had been arrested in possession of firearms illegally. This was far from their first rodeo. It was one of those nice CA judges who ruled that they should have their firearms returned, thus enabling them to attempt the North Hollywood robbery.
@@Rollin_L Well my facts were hazy. But eleven officers were wounded, some gravely. Police were wary that a third suspect could still be at large. A 2000 lawsuit on behalf of Matasereanu's children alleging LAPD had violated his civil rights by refusing medical treatment leading to his subsequent death, resulted in a hung jury and a mistrial.
@@HootOwl513 That such a lawsuit even was allowed to go to trial is a travesty in itself. Do anyone think that violent terrorist was going to make a good father? I can just imagine the pride those kids have in their daddy's memory. Sheesh. The family dismissed the lawsuit following that outcome, in exchange for not having a malicious prosecution suit leveled in return. This was a lawyer's game, the children just being made victims, as if their own father hadn't 'already done enough damage. To my point, It's easy in the aftermath to state that it would have been safe to bring in medical aid right away, but that is not how the situation appeared in real time. Concern for a third perp was legitimate until it could be conclusively proven that the danger was over. No one should weep for Matasareanu. He got to sleep in the bed he made for himself.
Great to see an Aussie video Santee, for any non Aussies, the most accurate production of the Ned Kelly story is The Last Outlaw with John Jarrett as Ned from 1980. The latest movie called The true history of the Kelly gang, makes the story look like a joke, I am actually glad I got knocked back as an extra for that movie. Keep the great videos coming.
Thank you. I enjoyed every movie so far on the subject, but was cautious of the last one. It did, however, give me an idea of the true squalor the family must ahve experienced at some point.
Interesting bit of trivia about Australia. Everyone is familiar with the fact that English (and Irish) inmates were sent there as punishment. The sentence was called Transportation, and even today, it's a rarely used word in the country. For instance, the government agency in charge of roads is called the Ministry of Transport.
I have always remembered the joke about flying into the country, and when the customs guy asks if you are a criminal, ask back "Is that still a requirement?".
Coming back to this as well-- After he was hanged he was buried in an unmarked grave. In 1929, the site in the Gaol where he was buried was being being developed for new police headquarters and when the remains were unearthed it was a free-for-all and civilians grabbed all the bones they could get, hoping they were Ned's. Eventually, the bones were returned and reburied until they were dug up again by personnel looking to locate Ned's bones. All were found except his skull, someone did claim they had Ned's skull which was put on display at the Melbourne Gaol for years until DNA tests revealed it wasn't Ned's! He finally had the Catholic funeral service he deserved in 2013 with all the remains that were found of him, and he's been buried in an unmarked grave in the cemetery where the rest of his family members are buried. Lord knows where his skull is now, though!
I went to Australia this past September and it was such an amazing experience to see Ned Kelly's armor, read the Jerilderie go to the place he was hanged and see the birthplace of such a legendary man. I highly recommend going to Melbourne to everyone. Also Santee; do you plan on doing a video of any of the other Bushrangers in Australia?
I didn’t know it last month, but I’m pretty sure my partner and I from Australia got an almost private historical tour with Santee in Arizona, in the same week or so that he put out an Arizona Ghost Riders video about Australia 😱 Good on ya Santee!
@@ArizonaGhostriders I tried the accent in the short as promised. But the words were wrong for me… I’m not a Aussie, but I have many a friend there and I gave it my best shot. But thanks anyway for the video. Kelly was an original bad*** and that’s that IMHO. Keep it up! 👍
Back in the day, an old Ausie told me Ned grew that bulletproof skin by eating Vegemite Sandwiches 😳 My question was, why didn't it grow on his legs 🤔 That was a pretty darn good movie about Ned & his Gang. Thanks for covering him.
I first learned about him through a movie that I bought as a Christmas present for my dad, not realizing it technically wasn't a real "western". Ned Kelly's final stand sure was one that stands out amongst gunfights. Cool steampunk aesthetic too!😅 Though maybe that would be an interesting topic for a future video. Armour during the Old West? That something barely ever talked about, the only example of it I can think of would be a character from those Call of Juarez games. I know it was barely a thing during the Victorian era, but as Ned showed, even makeshift armour wasn't completely ineffective.
Thank You! I wanted to do it justice and slammed that book down plus some other info. The movies I had seen. Yet....still haven't been to Australia. Dangit.
@@ArizonaGhostriders I've been to Glenrowan once, although I didn't visit the muesuem there as we were only passing through. One day I'll have to take the trip down to the State Library of Victora were they display his armor.
Very interestingly awsome and interestingly informative video, I really liked and enjoyed it. I learned a lot about Ned Kelly the australian bush ranger, who I havebt heard about until now and it was fascinating to learn about the frontier era in Australia as well. I got a lot of inspiration for my re edited and rewritten old west frontier,ancient hebrew,christian,mesopatamian and sumerian demonology and mythology as well as Occult demonology inspired writing projects as well. Great job and well done. Im definetly going to add bush rangers to my storys world and stories alongside outlaws and even ancient mesopatamian and sumerian warriors and adventurers.
@@ArizonaGhostriders thanks and your welcome. Today im working on writing one of my stories that takes place in island called Isle of Hy'Yulia and is inspired by world sumerian,mesopatamian and Judeo-Christian mythologies, folklore and religious/Spiritual teachings and lore as well as hypothetical, theoretical abd speculative theories and hypothesis on history ,religion and science and philosophical ,jungian psychological and mytho poetic thought and teachings. Right now im getting further inspiration from the theory that aliens are demons.
Those of us American sailors who were in Australia while that song (Down Under by Men At Work) was popular, know that the lyric is "Were women glow and men chunder." Chunder is a slang word for vomit. They drink a lot of beer. The lyric was changed for American radio, because the word was unknown to the States, and sounded gross. Which it is.
@@ArizonaGhostriders personally I would love to, although with me living in Ireland I’m having an extremely difficult time finding period accurate clothing to do so.

"Such is life" - Ned Kelly
Yep.
"And it's getting sucher and sucher."
“Such is life……” Ned’s last words before being hung. A saying I’ve used for years.
Right.
Great video, Santee. Arizona Ghostriders videos are the highlight of my week 😎👍🏻
Akin to “I reckon so…”. Josey Wales

Ned kelly wearing a metal like armor and a bucket helmet has to be one of the most unique ways to become an outlaw
Right?
Ahhhh I got so excited seeing this!! I'm Australian and an avid fan of all things wild west, the closest thing we had to a stereotypical wild west outlaw was Ned Kelly. He really tried to do right by his people.
He did. Brave soul.
Thanks for bringing Ned Kelly to " life " again!

I would agree. Some great outlaw stuff there. I imagine people find artifacts from the bushrangers in the woods.
Around the world, wherever you had colt revolvers and banks, you had outlaws. God love 'em!
Right?!?
Yippee Ki Yay Santee! Top notch video about a guy I really admire. No turn the other cheek for Ned. Once again, you make Saturday morning interesting.🤠
Wow, thank you!
One of the few cases of Armor!
Apparently it really inhibited his ability to shoot accurately and reload.
@@ArizonaGhostriders But kept him in the action until they figured out to shoot his legs.
I love my Saturday mornings. Because then I get to see another interesting video of the wild west. Thanks so much Santee!! 🤠
You're welcome.
Hey Santee, great video about Ned Kelly. He is still held as a hero to a lot of us down under.
Glad to hear it. I was nervous about making a video about him....since I'm not an Aussie. Means a lot I got a good review from you.

I would have never done it had it not been for countless requests from your fellow countrymen. Yes, you had a lot of outlaws, too.
That armour was bizarre! But a good lesson in an outlaw's life being hard scrabble and short.
Yeah!
This episode brought a smile to my face
Good

Today im working on writing one of my stories that takes place in island called Isle of Hy'Yulia and is inspired by world sumerian,mesopatamian and Judeo-Christian mythologies, folklore and religious/Spiritual teachings and lore as well as hypothetical, theoretical abd speculative theories and hypothesis on history ,religion and science and philosophical ,jungian psychological and mytho poetic thought and teachings.

Hey Santee Love Your Videos Can You Do A Video On Varmint Rifles Of The Old West?
I can. Thank You!
Those of us American sailors who were in Australia while that song (Down Under by Men At Work) was popular, know that the lyric is "Were women glow and men chunder." Chunder is a slang word for vomit. They drink a lot of beer. The lyric was changed for American radio, because the word was unknown to the States, and sounded gross. Which it is.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Cool. Thanks!
Great stuff Santee, Mongo like 🌵🚂🚃🚃🌵
Thanks 👍
Awesome job, Santee! Great research and topic. Heard of Ned Kelly before, but did not really know the story. How's yer head?
Good! Ghost hits are suprisingly brief in the pain department.
Where Beer does flow and men chunder!! That means puke! As always, I enjoyed
the coffee visit!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Hey Santee, would you be able to do a series on rating the historical accuracy of the viewers outfits? Thank you.
Good idea. I'm not sure how many of my viewers actually dress in accurate clothing.
@@ArizonaGhostriders personally I would love to, although with me living in Ireland I’m having an extremely difficult time finding period accurate clothing to do so.
@@JoeTayto I get it. There are Facebook pages devoted to historically accurate western clothing. Much of it custom. Very inspirational.
The Australian iron man, OG Steve Irwin, and national hero.
OK!
I've heard the name, but didn't know anything about him. Thanks!
You're welcome.
It's interesting how the whole business exposed the police corruption we might need a few like him today
Not sure there is more corruption today. Seems not as much.
Hyah mule, HYAH!
