  • This is what i have to show y'all so far, please feel free to ask me anything in the comments, ex if you dont understand a certain point i give in the video or something like that, please no hate i worked on this since Nov 2019. I have Checked my information 3-4 times to make sure there were no mistakes or misunderstandings. Ps- this video is my personal opinion, none of this can be 100% proven unless R* themselves say this is 100% legit, therefore take this with a grain of salt if you will. You have to admit the clips i have sure do seem like proof enough for me. also words might be misspelled in the video, English is not my first spoken language.

    I think this has gone on long enough...This video was uploaded on the 10th anniversary of Red Dead Redemption, it was to celebrate an old "DEBUNKED THEORY" that means "fake" "proven false"...This video is for entertainment...its meant to be nostalgic for old players who have seen the Uncle Harlow theories from 2010-2011, i keep it in the style of the original, as real looking as possible...i really did go all out for this video...i also uploaded a face comparison of uncle & Red...these videos are not meant to be taken too seriously. Please stop bullying kids who believe this theory,
    if you tell them this theory is false and they don't believe you or argue back please ignore them.

I thought it would have gotten 2k views tops due to its "clickbaitey" nature...but its been up since May and most people who believe it won't change their mind now, its like religion to them now or something lol, so im just gonna let them believe what they want...its not really hurting anyone.

      @@BelligerentIAm yeah its why i made the video in the first place, in 2010 it was such an over the top wtf theory, so many people where outraged at the thought of Uncle, the drunken old man living on John's ranch being Red Harlow...but in 2020 it really shocked me that so many people actually believed it and even wished it to be true. Maybe they just want it to be true for the memes, but still...its suprising how positive the feedback was for this 10 year old theory that was absolutely hated when it was first created.

      Actually if looked at the year, red Harlow was in his 20s during 1880 and uncle said sometime between the fall of '49 and the fall of Rome, so he was in his 30s around 1880. And the fact the he said that he was know as the one shot kid in his youth, my best bet that he’s not red Harlow probably knew him in person. Because when you go back there’s a character name curly Shaw and he look similar to uncle and that he was born the year of 1842, he was 37 in the year of 1880.

Look at it this way, the first Native he ever saw slain was his mother, i wouldn't be surprised if the two topics/trauma was associated to him.
      Like saying something like "hey im half Native btw" might immediately remind him of the trauma of seeing his parents slain at 9 y/o
      People often forget or don't know that alot of people use humor as a coping mechanism to hide and mask true scars/trauma. Alot of the biggest jokers/jesters and arguably best comedians have been in their personal lives deeply depressed and hurt people.

      @Toland Belmar he's probably referencing the wiki "Red Dead Redemption is not a direct sequel to Red Dead Revolver, instead it is a loosely-based spiritual successor to the previous title." And also "Rockstar Games writer and producer Dan Houser also stated that the game's events take place in its own canon." But honestly for me one PR statement makes it hard to ignore that fact that they put time and effort into making reoccurring places, characters and legends that hint it all takes place in the same world.
      But this isn't the first time a game has had "official cannon" conflict with easter eggs and hints.
      At the end of the day it is all fiction anyway.
      Whos to say the games dont take place in parallel yet virtually identical universe.

He's got his wisdom and he's seen his share, but decided to find his peace in each moment he can even if it doesn't come often or easy. Eventually, he found himself with a family that looked too familiar, and stuck around in the hopes it might go better for them this time.

Perhaps it can take place in 1916 and have it be about Jack Marston. We can have some of the characters from the first game like Bonnie MacFarlane, Seth, and Nigel West Dickens reappear, take control of Jack again and find out what life has in store for him, take down the remaining gangs, have Sadie Adler return ONE LAST TIME, and somehow conclude the tale of the Marston and Van Der Linde gang and maybe cut to about a few years in the future to the 1920s where cars, streets, and cities are everywhere and find out what happens to Jack and if he has a wife and kids maybe. That's at least my thoughts. If some of you are wondering what happened to some of the characters from the first game there is a video that covered it.

      @@GBrimstone the theory is that red harlow and uncle are the same person so they would have lived the exact same lives. red harlow is definitely a teenager when his parents die. We also know uncle was 9 when his died. Unless one can definitely disproof this the theory is disproven. Trying to shift around the timeline does only change when things happened not the details of how they happened. This is a clear nod towards the theory not beeing true from rockstar. If they wanted to leave it amibigous they would have had uncle say he lost his parents at 12 because red harlow beeing a rather mature 12 year old could be the case. If they wanted to outright confirm it they would have had uncle say 14 or 15 because that would have been about the age harlow looks and sounds in that scene. But rockstar deliberately choose uncle to say nine which is just to young for him to be harlow.
      And that reasoning pulls itself through the whole theory. Uncle has done a few things in a similar to red harlow but they are similar never the same when they would need to align a lot closer. And uncle lacks the grievous scars of harlow and no those aren't the kind of scars that just fade away. Into wrinkles. The details just dont match. And the details matching is the difference between a proving and disproving a theory.

    No doubt about it. Red Harlow was the exaggerated stories told about Uncle's youth.
    Red Harlow had hypertrophic scars on his face. Those heal and disappear over time. It's keloid scars that never go away, since they grow over time and act similar to cancer. I've had some gnarly scars, and never got a keloid scar. A fencepost cut me to the ribs as a kid, and that scar is all but gone. A few years before that, a horse ran me under a tree (clotheslined me with a bough and knocked me out of the saddle). That tree left a massive scar wrapped around my forearm, but it's nearly invisible now. It took 12-15 years for those big-ass scars to fade away.
    At Uncle's age, any scars from his youth will look like extra wrinkles. Except for burn scars, which can cause contracture scars, but those usually fade. Especially on the palm and fingers, where new skin grows more rapidly than most areas.

      Though he’d have known the gang wouldn’t have outed him to the officials had he revealed his true identity, to me it follows that he was content to let sleeping dogs lie; happy to not open that can of worms to the gang and deal with the fallout of being the local celebrity.
      To me he seems perfectly content to kick back, drink and spend the rest of his life happily doing nothing. He doesn’t owe anybody anything after his decades of hard work, I think he deserves to finally take a backseat and do fuckin nothing, and so does he.

    It does make sense tho.
    I mean, yes. Uncle has no back stories and he seem to talk all kinds of crap that doesn't tally but then again if you think about it, it does. He can ranch, he can build and he damn well can shoot for the life out of it much like any of Dutch's own shooting men. Look at RDR2. The tip he gave about the robbery of the bank coach. The tip was wack but when it went wild, Uncle did his fair share of shooting and in fact, everyone got out unscathed. In RDR1, the same thing happened. The ranch was overran by US Cavalry forces and Uncle held his own, repelling wave after wave till he himself was shot. Even in both RDR1 and 2, he helped in ranching horses, cows and in 2, even helped Marston in building Beecher's Hope when he ain't lifting a finger.
    That speaks volume in what kind of man Uncle used to be. He might have left the life but still, it lingers with him or at least the skills he honed before he got into Dutch's posse. Uncle's incessant drinking might be a way for him to cover up his past misdeeds and to drown himself away from the misery and PTSD he suffered all those years back. I mean, watching your parents die infront of your eyes and going on a crazy killing spree along the way just harms your mentality in the long run and during those times, psychology isn't treatable and drinking became a huge part of the "cure" for such problems and Uncle might be using that as a mechanism. However, the more he drank, the more laidback he became and because Red became a criminal in the end of Revolver, it makes absolute sense on why Uncle would come into contact with Dutch as Dutch's visionary at that point of time wasn't that bad and at least he did what he said he was going to do which was a good cause and Uncle believed him.
    Plus, to boot, Uncle does speak in the same form like Red. You can change everything with a beard or outlook but how a person speak sticks with him, forever.

    People forget how the story of RDR is told by someone who wasn't even there. Red probably was NOT the badass bounty hunter we play in the game. He was just a bounty hunter who made some mistakes on the basis of his infancy trauma - seeing both your parents being killed when you're 9 years old is something you'll NEVER forget - and then went on the run - probably after killing the governor (?) -. But one thing is for sure, the theory that Uncle is Red is one of the most plausable right now.

      Uncle could be Red Harlow, and R* will not tell u the secret, so when anybody who's telling u that R* said that no characters from 2D universe is in 3D one, is just next in line. They mentioned it on a purpose, like when in GTA V you have an album of this guy from GTA SA. R* wants to push ur curiosity, and only show the real secrets for the most curious. Most of people will play it as a Uncle is some old fellow who loves a whisky, but u can play it and see him as a guy who had a tough history, and just wants to forget it amd emjoy the live he lives right now.

      Secondly, the house that is burned down in red dead revolver and red dead 2, is completely made of wood, and the house you show in red dead redemption 1, is made out of bricks. They are not even the same house.
