My great uncle was a pesky blinder….. lived on slade road road Erdington…. He was a debt collector, who had an office at the Dunlop…. He laid bets for the workers and collected….. tough man. He got deported from Canada for killing a man in bare knuckle fight
For real?
@@shin9380 no it's a lie for attention on TH-cam
@@LADYBOY1988 oh okk thx
Sounds like a right thug. You must have achieved very little in your life if this is all you have to be proud of . . .
@@shin9380 yes brother!!!
Sounds like the show lasted longer than the gang.
Not unusual, the TV series MASH lasted three times longer than the actual combat in Korea ( although technically the war still goes on as there was no armistice, only a ceasefire)
They want you to believe they are no longer around but the blinders made it big.
@@kingsaucey1419 Exactly. It was pretty obvious them getting involved in Politics was their way into fading into the Modern World
I dont think this channel actually did any research but rather just googled. So take with a pinch of salt.
My maternal grandmother was a member of the Simpson family, her brothers and cousins were the sworn enemies of the Peaky Blinders and were known as "Sloggers".
Woah😳
Yo blood line a bunch of suckas 🤣🤣🤣
cool
Sloggers are the same as Peaky Blinders. They were known as sloggers until the term, phrase, name Peaky Blinders came around
Don't say that to a member of the Simpson family unless you want to be separated permanently from your breath.
Man, that one guy looked exactly like Arthur. A doppelganger for sure.
true i saw that one as well! 🤙🏻i have a feeling that guy was whom arthur was inspired from
Billy Kimber is the most real person from the series, and a lot of Thomas Shelby's story arcs from season 1 to 3 follow the pattern of the real Kimber's life. But even Kimber never made it as far up as the fictional Thomas Shelby.
What do you mean, "the most real person"?
Oswald Mosley was a real person, and the actor played him brilliantly. The show depicted him very accurately. He also had a lot more screen time than Billy Kimber.
@@braydenbasil7636 alfie laughin
@@braydenbasil7636 every Oswald Mosley scene was fictional
@coltonsmith4669 This is the dumbest comment 😂 just to let you know that Thomas Shelby is a fictional character. The entire show is fictional, pretty much EVERY scene is fictional, hahahah
I was just saying that the actor did a good job of portraying Mosleys character, mannerisms, and beliefs.
@@braydenbasil7636 okay Billy Kimber has stuff that was accurately portrayed and actually happened. Oswald Mosley has zero of those scenes you idiot, stfu and think before you type
Awesome show…but on a funny note..basically the real gang were a bunch of dudes the size of Kevin hart running around smacking each other up😄
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 not wrong there fella
@David Quill is that a bad thing
Yea seems like at 5'6" you'd be tall
Everyone was much shorter back then due to malnourishment ...life in Brum was grim ..some say it still is...
arthur shelby at 2:25..
This is next level TTS. Bravo 👏 👏
The most interesting part of my nursing career so far - treating an elderly gent who went to school with this family! Nothing like the TV Show apparently
In the 1890s?? He would be dead if he went school with them 😂 u cap🧢
Also the gang where grown men in 1880 so how u treating someone who went school with them?
@@liamclark3642 You realise the Peaky blinders weren’t based off of three brothers alone, right? It’s a generation of families from hundreds of years ago that are still around today, just less prevalent
@@liamclark3642 Obviously I’m not treating Thomas Shelby but I assumed you’d have enough critical thinking skills to figure that one out
@@catherinesimm3804 I never said u was treating tomas shelby u said u was treating someone who went to school with them and I was saying that's not possible
5:48 Great wardrobe Mr. Murphy.💯👍👏🔥
Brilliant series!
Agree 💯👍
Peaky blinders was a great series❗💯
the fascist crap was a stretch
How I wish background music was not used. It's hard to listen to the narrator with all the background noise.
Like most have noted, with few exceptions most men were short. Definitely due to the poor nutrition.
Think the tallest man shown was 5’10”. Most were between 5’0” and 5’6”. Gang should have been called the Peeky Smurfs
Yeah that would most definitely take you out from my dealings with the streets the short dudes were the most violent I'm 6 "2 and can handle myself and bounced in clubs and you think the biggest guy is running the outfit I think not Lol
@@williamfullman2639 It is always the smallest guy who's the most ruthless and aggressive. What they don't have in height they make up in aggression.
Some men are bigger then others
@@williamfullman2639 wow how did you start talking about yourself looking for validation on the tube.
Stop kid 😆
The desk sergeant had beautiful handwriting for the perps arrest sheet beneath the mugshots.
Razor blades, especially disposable ones were invented in 1895, so they could have actually had them in their caps.
I don't know about disposable razors, but they definitely used cut-throat razors.
They didn't sew them in their caps safety razors were new and expensive if they were going to use razors it would have been cut throats like Werner said.
It's the dapper attire for me.❤❤❤
I just finished binge watching this. When's the next season coming out
Same here!!
They ain't gonna make a new season. They will end it with a movie.
@@lbecattinilb will the movie have different actors?
@@Lu7.k beautiful Helen McCrory passed away
And the distance between Rich and Poor is ever widening again, wiping out the Middle Class
Great job
I don’t want the show canceled!!!! 😢
Thomas Gilbert looks like Dr. Phil. 😆
I’ll be honest it looks like the original peaky blinders all shared the same brain cell 🙂
Whats that supposed to mean
@@eagleslegacy8639 they had the same amount of intelligence
Lets say my IQ is 6, and my brother's IQ is 6 so we both (technically) know the same thing
The show does wonders for them. Ha.
I was interested in how short these guys were. Most of them seem to have been 5 foot 6 inches or less.
That was about average height for the time. 'Short' was less than about 5' 3", which IIRC was the minimum height for the armed forces.
thomas orange does look a bit like t shelby especially with that haircut
Gosh soooooo brilliant
Brian telling us about the real peaky blinders.
Great and informative! With that said, bad choice of music!maybe some music of the time would be better, still top notch
It seems the series gang conducted a higher level of crimes than the real one, either way the character of Thomas Shelby performed so well he has been approached by some high level producers to make a movie. The way he puffs on those cigarettes makes me want to start smoking again :-)
Precisely 👍👍
I smoke nearly allways when tommy smokes one
@@Kickyourcandyass totally agree, I strike a match just to get smoke in the air . I can only imagine how delicious those non filters tasted. He must get a lot of offers to play characters who smoke, he does it so Well, I want to see the movie Oppenheimer just for that reason :-)
Thanks, for this video. I learned alot from this video, about the real Peaky Blinders. The show Peaky Blinders is very good. A dear friend of mine put me on the show.
TERRANCE OUT
Glad you enjoyed the video. 😊😊😊🙏
That mugshot of Thomas Giles straight up looks like Justin Townes Earle.
👍
Interesting it seems there is a razor blade controvesty. Late 1890s they were invented, but holding one as a weapon seems as dangerous to the user as to the victim. It seems this point needs more research.
do a little research on teddy boys , razor blades and jacket lapels.
the peaky blenders out their razor blades in the brim of their hats, and swing the whole hat as a weapon with the razor blade leading the edge.
hence, when they cut your face, they'd usually cut your eyes...hence the peaky blinders.
@@NiSiochainGanSaoirsehuh, interesting. I haven't seen the show yet. But I do plan on it after seeing these videos. But interesting to learn where the name came from. I did wonder
@@user-wu3pk3su3dI don’t watch television. However I did watch EVERY episode. It was Wonderful!!!
I seriously hope you would do a video or HOPEFULLY EPISODES about NOTORIOUS AUSTRALIANBUSHRANGERS. Because I believe Australian bushranging history is an excellentexciting period in our country's history. Thank you
That will definitely be added to my list. And I'm planning a well-researched study of the history of bushrangers in Australia, such as the Kelly gang. Thanks for the feedback and see you in the future videos. ❤️
Kelly is one of my heroes
They just don’t have Tommy Shelley’s beautiful looks 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
If only back then someone will tell them they will be popular around the world.
You may mean notorius or infamouse. There is a difference.
I'm sure they would have tried to live up their name a little more than just stealing bicycles😂
@@MikeGreenwood51 being notorious and infamous makes u popular..
@ 3:16 the centre photograph is the criminal mastermind who hid in plain sight.
Ernest Haynes walked away from the great bicycle robbery without a prison sentence .
Sentenced to only 1 month punishment , probably community service smh
Heinous
As long as they don't hold my head and whisper directly into my face EVERYTIME I SEE THEM then I'm OK.
I'm an ex-bookie from Birmingham of Romany heritage, but my name isn't Shelby 💯
My grandparents are from Birmingham on my mothers side and sicily and london on my fathers side .I wouldnt be surprised if my british grandfather was into some shit like this ,plus he had alot of brothers too
They did not put razor blades in their caps.
1WW part is impressive
Thomas Gilbert is Dr. Phil!
0.25 Arthur has a phone in his pocket is what it looks like wonder what network he was on back then lol
Fun fact They actually didn’t have razor blades in there hat, razor blades weren’t even around then, they got the name from wearing there hats to the side blinding them in one eye cause the hat was so low
The double edged razor blade came out in 1903 and Peaky Blinders is set in 1919. ;)
Razor blade's was out then and they did have them in there hats fun fact
Well actually they used clip on ties that they would iron so sharp that they could be used as a short sword where they would rob blind folks for their reading glasses.
Regular shaving razors have been around for century’s, a folding blade 5-6 inches long, sharp enough to shave hair, big enough to remove a head. You can bet any gang member in those days probably was carrying one.
Not so fun lol
What is the song at 1:20???

I remember how much I loved this show. Then my Granddaddy told me a really cool story about how his Granddaddy used to be a bootlegger during the Prohibition. Turns out we're related to the Romani Lees, the ones who married into the Shelby family. The more you know.
In season 1 episode 1 ..I believe towards the ending when they are purchasing the horses with the gypsy's /Roma travelers ...and they got into the scuffle with the. 3 men and they spoke in the old Roma language and he said the Shelby's their father was the king of the Roma the translation was not there and it really upset me what they meant to say was their father was the king of the gypsies/Roma just FYI for people to know because the translation wasn't a 100% I wonder why they translated that wrong??the father was the king but the king of what ?? the man said Roma , which is a proper way to say gypsies or travelers Just wanted to let people know that's what he meant that the Shelby's father was the king of the gypsies or the Roma. By the way it's absolutely true story
I saw somewhere that they were using Romanian as opposed to Roma. Not sure why but might have been to make it easier for the actors. And I did wonder about the Gypsy side to the series; why would they put that in there, if there wasn't some link to the truth
@@naughtiusmaximus5057 I think there's a lot of confusion people that don't understand what the show is about it literally is about gypsies Roma or travelers whatever they want to be called but that is exactly who it's about and they were real people but if that's what you're talking about yes it is about that but some people even when you explain in detail who and what these people are and they No they did not originate from India lol still have a hard time understanding it I don't know what to tell you But it is about the gypsies definitely.. And yes in the beginning they spoke the Romanian language from Romania because didn't have the proper linguistics individual to speak the language actual gypsy language and later on in the rest of the episodes they had that finally to keep it true to keep yeah that was kind of embarrassing I thought in the beginning they shouldn't have done that but I guess they learned from their mistake because people were complaining
So they were bicycle thieves, bad ass
They did Billy Kimber dirty.
05:16 Henry Fowler looks a lot like Duke (but younger) from season 6 wth...
Glamourizing thugs
What?? Film and television glamourising thugs?? No...really? Whatever next huh.....
No wonder the world is screwed
So with all that mysterious menacing fashion, they're like the Amoeba Boys at least or the Rowdy Ruff Boys at best, and had no challenge against the likes of the Mojo Jojos and Hims of the Italian Mafias or Japanese Yakuzas :D
Dope story
Where can I find the music?
All of the background music came from TH-cam's audio library. Artists: Silent Partner, Jingle Punks and Ethan Meixsell.
Notable crimes stole bikes .
Was this narrated by a robot? The cadence is super weird
Nice
Those seem like petty crimes.
I don't understand the director's interest in the occult, particularly in the last season. Could someone confirm whether the real peaky blinders had that interest?
The real Thomas Shelby was killed by the real Billy Kimber.
Nope thats hollyweird putting their spells and symbols in
My understanding is that the fictional Shelby family had some Romani blood (genetically different than Irish) and had also come out of the Irish Traveler community (genetically Irish). Such mixing was not especially common. Not an expert, but I believe the Romani gypsies probably had more mystical, occultist beliefs, but the Irish in general had no shortage of superstitions and supernatural beliefs as well. (Big on curses, for sure.) There's a couple/few vids on YT that get into that. Here's one that really goes into details for 1.5 hours: th-cam.com/video/ak1CTBv5BTY/w-d-xo.html
@@nephilimshammer9567 wtf are you on about?
If they had any Romani blood in them at all, I can assure you that the belief in ghosts, curses, and telling fortunes were an everyday fact of life.
@@legendarylifting fr? mention any sources if any.
They selected the leader by the tallest one apparently. A gang of dwarves more like it.
U seen the hobbit?lol
😂😂
wow nice
Being that disposable razor blades weren’t invented yet the blades in the caps is a myth
1:20 Harry potters dad was a peaky blinder
What’s the song playing in the background. In 2:21
literally couldnt have used a worse text to speech than this one
5'1"- 5'6" for all but one at 5'10.5". Battle of the little people.
🤣
Please cut the music!
Does anyone feel like Thomas Gilbert looks like Dr Phil😅
True...
I would watch it, but I'm not really interested in gang related films or tv.
Amazing series. They fucked it up with the last season though. It was rushed, short, and anticlimactic.
Im in The middle of last seazon, is intetesting as far...
Just finished it bro. And loved the final episode. :)
stealing bicycle, the notorious gang 🤣
U r IQ is zero. Stealing bicycles in 1890’s time is like stealing BMW now.
So how to get rid of gangsters, give them guns and send them to fight your war.
Just a mortal human
Fookin' good music👌👌
Do u know the song at 1:20?
The Birmingham gypsy gangs had links to Nottingdale in london. They did not originate in Birmingham
Uhm.. the razorblade wasnt even invented at the time...
They did not adopt honey badger hair style did they? No less fearless anyway though.
Why the obsession with height? Some of the most dangerous men ive known have been comparitively short. If the average height was 8ft, then a 7 and a half footer would be reckoned a shorthouse.
Hey.. wazup.. CAFE RACER ..❤
So they're not really brothers
"They used assaults, beatings, stabbings, and manual stranglings to commit pickpocketing" like yeah okay bruv, it's not pickpocketing if the victim knows about it, and I'm sure getting sucker punched will give them a pretty good idea they're getting pickpocketed😂
Checking the heights of the real blinders, they would be judged as short for women in current times
Twitch tts voice 😂 xQcl
I'm a gypsy 😏
Ranging from 5'2" to 5'7". So it would be like being mugged by a bunch of little kids.
Tough looking blokes - but most so short. Poor general diet back then...
I lived near epsom were it kicked orf pub still there boozer
Lepricorns looking for a pot of gold!
The Glasgow razor gangs wouldve carved these mugs up.
The only city not ‘taken’ by the Birmingham gang. They tried several times but no joy. I heard the distance - religious fervency too - was also impediment.
Did u see the mug shots at the end? these guys were tiny!!!
😂
Cool how no matter what country race or religion, there is always an underworld full of vices!
Those " Peaky Blinders " mugshots at the end are BS if you look at the info below the pics they are all born between 1901 and 1911 ....... Not good .......
Thomas Shelby is a fictional character
No they did not use razors in the hats
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍🎬🎬
size dont matter
Is that a black guy to the far left?
These were some wee folk back then avg ht 5'5". the tallest 5'10
