- Well, “Billy the Kid” got one of the most short-lived colourful life as an outlaw, which ended when he was only 21, as he got shot in the dark by Garret. However, we also have Cherokee Bill, who was pushed into his death on gallows when he was just 20. Still, he was the Outlaw who got to have the Wittiest Last words even before death. You’re curious, right? So as I. Then, let’s find out the reason at the end of this video. But before that, let's hear the last words of the first outlaw on our list.

What starts tuff lives ruff and ends ruff. At least one can say all of these people stayed true to theirselves all the way through the end. No squirming and excuses. More than can be said for the majority today.
My favorite 'last words of a condemned man' come from a different source than the wild west. It comes from the French Revolution when Thomas De Mahay was to guillotined. Upon reading his death warrant he arrogantly said "I see you have made three spelling mistakes." The guy had cojones.
🤔🤨💭📃👍👌👏💯😁❗
Entertaining. If you're not concerned about facts getting in the way. Billy the Kid wasn't killed in "Fort Summer," Tom O'Folliard didn't have trouble joining the Regulators as he and Charlie Bowdrie were 2 of the Kids best friends (the 3 are buried side by side), and the Kid's last words were: "Quien es? Quien es?" Kinda makes you question everything else after that beginning...
nothing but BS in this video
Also, I don’t think he ever killed 21 men. I think he really only killed about 4.
@@roberthickerty390 Yeah, there's not a snowflake's chance he killed anywhere near 21 people, maybe 3 or 4 and that's a big maybe also.
Also some of Bill Longley's last words: “I see a good many enemies around, and mighty few friends.”
Also some of Sam Bass‘ last words: “If a man knows anything, he ought to die with it in him.”
“My mother always said that I would die with my shoes on.” - “Big Steve” Long’s last words after having asked to have his shoes removed before he was hanged.
- and not last words of an outlaw - but fine last words nonetheless:
“Cowards never lasted long enough to become real cowboys.” - Charles Goodnight
My grandpa was awesome. And one badass dude.
Jack McCall wasn't exactly a notorious outlaw. He was a famous murderer although it seems the only man he murdered was Wild Bill Hickok. He was hanged for it. His last words were "Could you cinch it a little tighter, please?"
White people cant be cowboys they are cowhands only blacks and hispanics were known as cowboys out of disrespect so that last quote hits different.
Great comment!!! Greetings from Russia
Even outlaws back then had better English then most people today
Cherokee Bills last words was blunt and to the point.
REMEMBER History is written by those that Hang Heroes...
The scoundrels got hung
That wasn’t Tom Horn’s last words. I heard the hangman was having trouble getting the noose around his neck and Tom said “Ain’t losing your nerve, are you, Joe?”
That line was in the movie Tom Horn with Steve McQueen and may not be true.
There was 2 Cherokee bills??? I love the old west! Those people had it rough! Tough people! Thanks for sharing!
From what I read, the famous Cherokee Bill that is mentioned at the end of the video, took that name from another Cherokee bill as an alias to hide from lawmen looking for him Crawford Goldsby. I'm assuming the guy at the begining of the video was the other Cherokee Bill. But he certainly doesn't look like the one at the end of the video.
They made it rough for them selfs, i don't know about tough people more like stupid.
They were not wishy washy for the most part

Billy the kid had an engaging façade, it's no wonder why people took to him.
It wasnt a "facade". It's who he was and was reported to be by his friends,
@@asleepinthealley It was his façade, Don't be absurd.
Not sure why Tom Horn is even mentioned in this story as an outlaw. He was not an outlaw. He actually had quite a background as a U.S. Army scout, lawman, and detective with the Pinkerton Agency. He didn't rob banks and trains. And he never killed a man that didn't need killing.
And there was that time he assisted in the talks with Geronimo. Tom Horn spoke Apache and was the interpreter during the talks General Crook had with Geronimo, negotiating his surrender. Geronimo requested Horn at the talks, because Horn was the only white man Geronimo could trust to interpret correctly.
Over 80 years later, in a mock modern-day trial, Tom Horn was acquitted of his charges for lack of evidence.
He was framed during a botched confession by Joe LeFors. And Walter Stoll, the county prosecutor in the trial, was up for re-election. Who were the real criminals here?
Tom Horn was hanged for murder, despite the fact he was"commissioned" as an agent for the local cattlemen's interesta. They had no official authority to hire LEOs. The evidence against Horn was circumstantial but the prosecutor, the court officials, and the jury didn't care.
"...never killed a man who didn't need killing...?" A 15 year old boy, shot from s sniper position at his home, needed killing? Tom Horn hung for murder 1. The cattlemen's group who hired him had no authority to hire LEOs and Horn wasn't a law officer. The evidence was circumstancial but fit Horn. His confession would be thrown out of court today, but not in the 19th century in a rural, ranchland.He was hung for murder. His work history had no effect upon a murder 1 trial.
@Jon Sonnenshein; That's how KARMA works; topples a perfectly logical business plan onto it's head by using an under-the-table "frame-job". "Bet he didn't see that one coming" type humor! As they say, KARMA's a BITCH!
Yeah, not innocent. -A murderer in the end.
jonsonnenschein, same kinda thing happening today !
Good content. With time, facts and legends meld.
Just found this site. Fantastic!!!
Brilliant!
I'm sorry my friend Billy the kid lived to be an old man.
The infamous female Pirate Anne Bonnie said to her lover, another infamous Pirate, Calico Jack, "If you had fought like a man, you would not be dieing like a dog." I bet Billy the Kid knew this quote.
Dying
God just nothing but non-stop filler. Get on with it bro.
Go away cry baby 🍼🍼🍼🍼
Thank you for warning me.

Wow, Kid was deadly enemy, might be an ok friend. John P.
The (nearly) last words from a notorious outlaw of the old world, Mathias "Hias" Kneißl, a bavarian robber and murderer, after receiving the notice of his death sentence on a monday: "De Woch' fangt ja scho' guat o!" (The week is off to a good start.) His last meal were six pints of beer before he was guillotined.
Always love your vlogs, thoroughly researched/interesting and entertaining.. Love the old west outlaws and histories, thanks for sharing, a UK Fan🇬🇧...............................
The thing is , it's not well researched
They seem to have extra large mustaches!
Horrid fact checking. Billy the Kid's last words were, "Quien es?" or who is it? as he entered the room of the owner of the house Billy was hiding in as he could make out only barely in the dark that someone else was in there. Pat easily identified Billy silhouetted in the doorway and shot him.
Yeah that saying about being shot like a dog was just something that he said not something he said before he died. The whole story about Tom O’Folliard also told Garrett “I see you in hell!”
Yep…
According to Pat Garrett. But he was trying to sell a book, so he had a story to sell. Factually, there are several lines of evidence that the Kid got away, Garrett shot a servant kid, then Garrett covered up the murder by claiming it was Billy and writing the 'definitive book' on Billy the Kid. FYI, Garrett was a known scoundrel with out of control gambling debt. And the person he shot that night was said to not even vaguely resemble Billy. Still, the reward was collected on Garrett's word alone. No body. No pictures. No collaborating witnesses that could also attest to anything other than the fact that Garrett had killed someone.
😂 the expert….. not
@@jethroneemo2150 there where 40 to 50 people at Billy funeral the next mourning that either knew him or friends with him that positively identified him
Actually, Billy's last words were probably, "Quien es?" Garrett laid in wait for Billy in his girlfriend's bedroom and bushwhacked Billy in the dark. A heroic man Garrett wasn't. I quit watching after that. I have no patience for poor scholarship.
"The dirty rotten coward, who shot Mister Howard in the back."
@@paulleckner8235 That was in reference to Bob Ford, who shot Jesse James.
@@jamesdunn9609 Ugh! You are right! Thanks for taking the time to correct me.

When asked if he had any final words while standing on the gallows, Australian outlaw Ned Kelly shrugged his shoulders and said "Such is life".
If you have never heard of him, Google his name.
You won't be disappointed.
Great story, assume ur a Aussie too then cuz u know about em
@@cozda7557 🇦🇺👍
im SURE mr.rolling stone himself Played the part in a movie..
There´s a film about him too ( fiction ) with Mick Jagger as Ned Kelly
Didn't the English kill him??
Notice how Justice was actually served. Now its like He killed 5 people because he was having a bad day. 90 days in prison and a slap on the wrist. 😒
And in California train robbers get out of jail free
I think you're exaggerating. I've never heard of anyone killing five people and getting only 90 days in jail.
@@leejung4552
I don't believe you. To start with, who robs trains in this day and age? Second, if any train robber anywhere in the United States got "out of jail free," I think I would have heard about it. I haven't seen a newspaper in a while, but I do find out about things over the internet, especially on TH-cam.
Earned a new sub!
I came here do die , not to make a speech ........... thats for me the best one 🤔😊
The photo at 10:04 that was labeled Billy the Kid playing crochet, is one of the many images that appeared, which has no prominence, or validity, after the only known tin type of Billy the Kid, sold at an auction, for over two million dollars. At that time, there was a flood of this type of images appeared. The original tin type was owned by a family that knew Billy the Kid, & knew the Kid had paid a quarter to have the image taken. Pat Garrett, who was friends with the Kid, as well as being his executioner used the original image in his biography. The original image of Billy the Kid, which Pat Garrett himself verified, sold for over two million dollars. The last I heard, this unidentified image of two men playing crochet, is for sale for five million dollars. There is no way to ever verify the authenticity of this photo, short of finding the other person in the photo still alive, & having him verify, that was, indeed Billy the Kid. Facial recognition on old photos, where the images are not square on, or too far away to be clear, are ineffective. Does anyone have five million dollars they want to spend on an image that can't be authenticated & should never have been labeled Billy the Kid in this video? I wonder what other history was added, or they took liberty to misrepresent? Hmmmm!!
If they can’t prove it’s him, then they cant deny it either.
@@survivallife7401 It doesn't work that way. There has to be proof beyond reproach that the image is Billy the Kid, or any old tin type with someone resembling Billy would be flooding the market, whether it was Billy, or not. The only known image was known by a family who knew Billy personally and Pat Garrett used the image in his book because he knew it to be Billy the Kid.
@@jamesferris4573 Ok, but they can’t even agree on the way Billy died or if it was Billy. I’m just saying no one alive now was present and as we know history is only written by the people who lived it and books, newspapers, magazines back then was like the internet to them people, so you don’t think they might have stretched the truth? Also if their is one pic of Billy their can always be another. They can’t prove it was Billy, but like I said can they 100% guarantee it wasn’t? I don’t think so. I also don’t agree with all the things written about Bonnie and Clyde, I’m sure they were no angels and did kill, but I’m sure some more was added to the stories. People exaggerate.
Yes,, that was ole billy.. I remember it well... He loved that damn game!!! Compared it to outwitting a shooter!😳🎾🎾
"I got your outlaw hangin' right here." There 's some last words for any of you outlaws. You can have it free of charge.

I wish I could’ve been the one to find the photo of the gang playing croquet.
I am happy for the gentleman who recently did find it, though!
It's fort Sumner new mexico
... and “tin type” photos, not “tint type.”
I love it when the left make their remarks about they got what they deserved .
It’s amazing different outlooks on history and the way people are raised and their thought process .
Today they would all be labeled bullies ,however it wasn’t extremely rare back in that era for men to be extremely fast with their guns .
And deal with weak opinionated people in a special kinda way .
I think it would have been a great time to live ,even if it was a brutal era .
Most of these young outlaws were forced to fight in civil war and made to chose life styles that didn’t align with any of their expectations!
Especially since America was changing over to a more law abiding civilized bunch of want a bes
How honorable it was that they went out like men not crying and begging for forgiveness.
They owned it ,obviously went out like the outlaw warriors they were
Actually,Billy the Kid only killed four men.
I always heard that Black Jack Ketchum's
last words were "I'LL BE IN HELL BEFORE YOU HAVE BREAKFAST!!
LET HER RIP BOYS!!".
Calamity Jane wasn't an out law, shame on you for besmirching her. I'm sure she would have had some choice words for you including her on this list.
No Jane wasn't an outlaw, but she was a publicity hound who sought public recognition, hence her claims of being Bill Hickock's wife, then when derided for lying about that, claimed to be his lover.. She worked several jobs as men do in a frontier environment. I believe you've not read enough 'old west" contemporary language use. She was called "Caliminty Jane " because the term 'calaminty" was a n eupheism for sylphilis. True or not, that's the reason for "caliminty" being attached to her.
Groucho Marx, 'Either these curtains go or l do' & Oscar Wilde, 'either this wall paper goes or l do', Bob Hope when his wife asked him 'Where would you like to be buried,' Surprise😲me', not sure they were Bob's last words, but all 3 witty & funny to the last.

I really like this channel. Very good research and editing organization. But...the melodramatic way you read the quotes is kind of bizarre to be honest.
People were rarely smiling in these old photographs because they had nothing to smile about. Plus they had to stare into the sun because of poor film stock and photographic equipment.
They most likely suffered from the pain of poor teeth.
'Smile for the camera', began in the cheesy nineteen fifties.
"their latest attempt was their last"
That's a logical conclusion.
I wonder why the Rifle was photo shopped out of the Famous Calamity Jane picture
The wild west is mild compared to today....
Billy the Kids last words were "who's there" or "who is it" in Spanish, seconds before Garret shot.
Calamity!
Oohrah!
Quien es Pete? Quien es? -Billy the kid's last words according to Pete Maxwell and Pat Garrett.
I love this pic of the kid and his buds playing croquet. When I saw it I immediately recognized most of the people shown in the pic. That is Billy standing there and Sallie and John Middleton. The big guy on the left wearing the bolder hat is John Tunstall. The fellow with the out stretched arm is Frank McNab. The tall dark haired lady is Lily Casey. Tom Folliard isn't in the picture.
If it was Billy ? No death photo ??? Brushy Bill......
moving film was discovered in1892, imagine if we had film of these people
This picture of Billy and Pat Garret playing Croquet makes this one hundred and fifty years old picture seem alot newer ! I believe knowing how Bloodlust the Cartels were during their recent War in Juarez unless we let justice rein in we've already lost
Edward Goering: I understood that photo is not what it was claimed to be.
It's Tom Folliard and Billy playing croquet.
Also those weren't Billy the Kid's last words. They were Que Es? 'Who's there?'
Yeah that is not Pat Garrett playing croquet with Billy the Kid. Nice try but no cigar.
Pat Garrett isn't in that photo, it's supposed to be Billy and other regulators . Garrett was never one of them ! Facts about fictions never add up .
That Billy the kid's picture is backwards. Gun should be on the right hip.
The original published pictures was a mirror-imaged daguerrotype. Look at the Winchester. Winchester never made a rifle with the loading gate on the left side.
There is only one authenticated photo of Billy the Kid and you showed it at 0:43.
They all chose their lives and paid for it. The easy way out isn't always the best.

Correction: 20 commercials!
Billy the Kid was only ever indicted for four killings. 3 arguably in self defense. That is his total of known killings, although it is possible he could have killed as many as 9 but not likely. Not even close to 21. And he never reached that age. He most likely was murdered by Garrett at 19, but possibly 20 at the most.
Those eyes are very Wild🥹🫤
These guys were hradcore!
After Rufus Buck was hanged in 1896 a photograph of his mother was found in his cell. On the back, Buck had written a poem:
I dreamt I was in heaven
Among the angels fair;
I’d near seen none so handsome,
That twine in golden hair.
They looked so neat and sang so sweet
And play’d the golden harp.
I was about to pick an angel out
And take her to my heart.
But the moment I began to plea
I thought of you my love.
There was none I’d seen so beautiful
On earth or heaven above.
Crime does not pay...
How do you know 🤔 that?
Unless you're a politician!
Great background music. What is the name of it?
Good question.
“Sadly, Henry (the gangster’s) luck would soon run out.”
Yeah, it’s very very sad. 😂
Great stuff, if only it were all true.
Apparently they be kinda flippant about HELL
8:42. Jed Clampett?😅
People think Garrett killed Billy yet there are no photographs of Billys Body on Display as was the tradition of the day. Also Garretts own words when the body was turned over " THATS NOT THE KID " SO did Garrett really kill the kid.
Billy the kid never gunned down 20 something men
is this a real voice or a robot?
Tin type or tint type? Sam Bass 1920 or 1878 ? petty I know
Lots of errors. I just like looking at the old pictures.
This is not even true. Billy the Kid did not kill 21 men and his last words, if it was Billy that Garrett shot, were, “Quien es?” He spoke fluent Spanish and those he was hanging with at the time were all Spanish speakers. Garrett had to ask for confirmation as to who he’d killed because he wasn’t sure. The first two people that saw the body said, “that ain’t Billy.”
You’re pretty sloppy with your research so I’m stopping there. The rest is probably wrong, too.
Yep total shit it should be taken down
SkipStones:So right.Billy didn't kill 21 men,that's just a myth.Yes,those were the last words spoken before Garrett shot.Billy also spoke fluent Irish Gaelic as well as Spanish.I would like to think that Billy wasn't killed though that's a bit hard on the other victim.But unless Deluvina was an amazing actress & Paulina Maxwell the same,I tend to think it was Billy that was killed that night.Its been suggested Maxwell's motive for the killing,was he resented Paulina's friendship with Billy.But it's unlikely the truth will ever be known.RIP Chevarto.(Do u think he would've recognised himself in Young. Guns & other movies about him?)
Not to mention all this talk of bank robbing is grossly exaggerated. If you look up the statistics of the amount of banks robbed in the US during this period you’ll find it to be much lower than you’d expect.
@@susanmccormick6022 Paulita Maxwell, not Paulina.
@@reefhog Of course it was.Lo siento.BTW,what's all this about she & Billy having a child?Do you know anything about that?From what I heard,Pete Maxwell resented his sister's friendship with Billy & that was the motive for trying to have him killed.Have u been to the BTK museum?If so,what did you think of it?Whatever the truth about Billy,I hope he & his brother & mother RIP.
Watch out; this video promises a lot and delivers only waffle - are least as long as I could stand watching it
The last words were interesting but I don't know that they were very witty. Most of them resigned themselves to Hell.
I would say “I’ll be waiting for you on the other side you sobs!”
🤔🤨💬 ~ BTW, A buddy in Deer Lodge, Mt. married a Gal originally from Livingston, She claimed it was knowen by All there, ~ Calamity Jane died drunk one winter in the Livingston jail❕ ⚰🪦💐☠👻😥 Yup 🙁⁉
I myself never heard Calamity Jane was an outlaw or Tom Horn either, or I'm I wrong?
Tom Horn became a hit man for Ranching interests. Murder was a crime even in the old west
You should watch "Tom Horn" played by Steve McQueen - excellent movie and fairly good representation of Horn.
" outlaw Man " by the eagles
‘WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!!!’
-Mayor of Hiroshima…….. last words
Tom O’Folliard also told Garrett he would see him in hell.
William Bonney never came close to killing 21 men in 21 years, I think a more realistic figure was like 4, according to Bob "Boze" Bell, an authority and author on the Wild West.
Is this a Russian narrating ? By the way Billy the Kid was photographed by the “tin type” process … not tint type.
Trying to figure out why the red arrows are needed in this introduction....
Well done except for the mislabeled photographs. For example, the picture labeledPat Garret and Billy the Kid was neither.
It is a tin-type not a tint-type. It is a type of photo processing.
gotta put my cowboy boots on cause the bullshit is getting deep
Pat didn't shoot Billy. He let him go.Pals
I am waiting for your last words, so we can hear those of the outlaws.
Think they meant tin type photo, Not tint.
Written on a tombstone. Here lies the body of Les Moore, killed by 4 shots from a 44, no less no more. 😆
Billy the kid was Parton by the age of 86 he died of natural courses. Mr. Garrett got shot by a 21 year-old man name William H Bonnie/Billy the kid
Billy the Kids last words were " Quien es"? Maybe all the others are wrong also. Quien sabe? Who knows?
Her and Belle Starr were famous lesbians.
The picture of Billy the Kid playing cards is not Billy. There is only one pic of BTK with any provenance. BTK's last words were "¿Quien es?" Tom Folliard (not "O'Folliard") was not a kid who kid who idolized Billy. He was older than BTK and had grudges against The House in Lincoln County. See the books by Fred Nolan on the Lincoln County War for more extremely well documented information.
I love YG1 & 2.But historically accurate they were not.Emilio was born to play that role.
@@susanmccormick6022 I agree about Estevez and his movie BTK. I could watch those movies a million times over. I almost did my master's thesis on the Lincoln County War and I did quite a bit of original research on it before switching to a topic I knew better. It's still one of my favorite historical topics.
We all know he sold it because the z06 came out
What's the music used at the 1st section of the video?
Truth...Is Billy's dad Bugs "What's Up Doc" Bunny??? See an orthodontist Billy. That's a toof doctor if you're not sure.
JB Miller was an uncle 7 times removed his step daughter married John Wesley Hardin. I'm a gunfighter in Tombstone. I still own property in Van Buren Ar. Guess its in the blood
Whitty? Very sad I’d say.
Sam Bass died on his 27th birthday. Since he was a bit of a rockstar, is he the original member of the 27 club?
Calymitty Jane wan not a murder .only a very interpentet woman
Still waiting for witty last words
Interesting photographs
Terrible knowledge of the subject..
Billy the kid should’ve been played by a young John cusack .
