    If I said it once I've said it 100 times best learning of old west history ever. We here at the Outlaw Saloon in San Antonio ain't never been good at no book learning but we sure are good at drinking beer, whiskey, talking shit and listing to Bloody Beaver Podcast. Keep up the hard work Josh it truly is appreciated. OUTLAW UP!!

      Many of the comments on this video are very positive concerning the humor of the narrator . I find it very tiresome . Hugh Glass , Jim Bridger , Kit Carson , Frank Grouiard , Liver eating Johnson were no joke . This narrator wouldn't dare joke about these truly important historical figures if they were alive and in the same room as this weeny comedian . He is exactly what these great men would call a "tenderfoot" who would wet his pants if he were ever part of their hunting party , especially if there were Blackfeet or Cheyannes or Sioux around . Grow up all you that would rather giggle than find out the true stories and historical importance of these mountain men . . Real history ,the kind never shown or expressed by this idiot , is so much better . So much more incredible than this guys demeaning jokes , poor jokes at that . Less of his "HUMOR" , and more of true history . The Real story is something this weeny will never understand . Hugh Glass gets mauled by a big Grizzly , is abandoned by Jim Bridger and Mr Fitzgerald ...with no rifle , bullets , powder or Bowie knife ...and this moron makes snide jokes about bit !!! Throw the narrator and his jokes to the Blackfeet and let them show him a world of REALITY ...

    Lived and worked many years in densely forested brushy bear country. Have had more than a few surprise encounters. Running into a large grizzly is a bit more adrenaline charged than discovering you're in a tight place with the average black bear. Either way, they usually run seeing a human, but if she's a sow and you got too close to her cubs, or a bore or sow that's lost the human fear and is aggressive, they can dish out a horrific mauling. Like the grizzly sow in Glacier Park my wife and I witnessed rip a man up like he was a little rag doll. For him it was fatal.

      Black Osos can be vicious too, I have seen their claws marked on people, and... not pretty.
      BUT those Grizzly claws are more than double their size and the arms behind 3 times as heavy. Like getting caressed by Edward "scissor-hands" but with an arm behind as heavy as an 80 lbs potato bag, just dropping on you. Imagine their power if swinging a true jab at you, any arms no matter how bodybuilder thick you may throw to fend yourself will be pulled off their sockets if hooked. Gnarly and ghastly, Werewolf like.

    If Hugh Glass was near death and unconscious, how would he know it was Bridger that left him?
    About grizzly’s… I read in Lewis and Clark’s journals, after a near encounter in which a bear chased a man over a cliff into a river, “Our curiosity concerning the beasts is well satisfied and we would do well not to meet any more of them”.

    Another great video sir! Take it from someone who HAS been nearly run down by a bear (a “small” black bear, maybe 350-400 pounds) in 1977, as a Boy Scout at Philmont Scout ranch in the Rockies in the northeastern corner of New Mexico, near Raton-they are FAST. My dumbass buddy and I followed this bear OUT of our camp, where it had sniffed around but done no damage as ALL of our food, and anything that had ANY smell at all (toothpaste, chapstick, etc…) was stowed in a “bear bag” 50 yards off the ground, between 2 tall pines. (We were hiking 63 miles in 2 weeks and that’s what you did EVERY time you made camp so as not to have Bluto rip your tent open in the middle of the night and eat your face and then brush his teeth with the freaking toothpaste that you SHOULD have put in the bear bag! 😮) Anyway, both of us dumbasses followed this bear a couple hundred yards out of our camp, keeping at least 75 yard’s between us. We were trying to get pictures of it-which means we were carrying our cameras-no cell phones in 1977, when my buddy proved himself to be a bigger dumbass than me by, without asking my “thoughts” on it or giving me any warning-he started SNORTING loudly because (as I discovered later) he wanted it to turn around so we could get a better picture. Well, it not only turned around, it stood up on its hind legs, looking right in our direction, took a couple loud snorts of the air to lock-in our coordinates, and hit the ground running at top speed-right for us. By the time I heard Scott say “Oh shit,” in his most “trustworthy and brave” scout tone-I was already 25 yards in the other direction, headed towards camp but also looking for a climbable tree. About 50 yards into my dash, I jumped completely across an arroyo that was maybe 10 feet wide and 8 feet deep. I looked back and realized Scott wasn’t gonna make it. The bear had closed ground on him so fast that I truly thought he was about to be “Revenanted.” He leapt across the arroyo about 20 yards ahead of the bear and as soon as he landed on the other side, Smokey put on the brakes. He came to a complete stop, stood back up on his hind legs, and snorted several times at us. (I imagine he said something like “Don’t try coming across this little gully again dipshits!”) An employee of the ranch, volunteers who would guide us scouts into the mountains on the first 3 days of our 14 day hike, was killed by a black bear the year before we were there and, as our guide told us “Black bears aren’t typically as aggressive as grizzlies, and they don’t get as big, but you don’t want to mess with em!” I have a couple pictures of the bear still, and I’m sure I had some “stained underwear” too. (Not really but I am certain I checked when I was back in my tent!) 🤯💩😳

Every 10 yards we made, he made 25. I’m glad I’m here to watch your videos and laugh about it some 45 years later. Love your content man. You and me are both fascinated by the exact same stuff.

    Recently found your channel. I love it. Maybe someone's already said this, you referenced the revenant multiple time. You need to watch the man in the wilderness. They change his name to bass in the movie. It follows much closer to to story line you described.

    I've seen plenty of black bear but if you leave them alone they are likely to leave you alone. I never want to see a grizly that close.
    I saw a bull moose real close once.i was drawing water from a spring in Argyle, New York on a mountain in a forest. I looked up and there was a giant moose just staring at me snorting in the cold with steam coming out it's nose,looking at me like it'd love nothing more than to run me down and smash me to pieces.
    I didn't drop my bucket I didn't move an inch. It took its eyes off me and slowly walked by, turning it's back to me and walking away like it sees people on it's trail all the time and it wasn't at all impressed with 14 year old me.
    There are times in almost everyone's life when they know they dodged death. That was the first time I felt that.

    IDK how I stumbled on your channel, very happy I did, I listened intently you have a great voice for this sort of thing... Now that was the ego building comment. Here comes the constructive criticism, actually just a smartass comment of my own. Shortly after the intro I'd say, you said Hugh thought of the white pirates, as the real savages,.. However,
    a short time later you go on to say how hugh and his traveling mate,, somehow made it through 2 native tribes who were, "cannibals" that in my book would be the definition of "savages" ..
    I guess I could be wrong, what say you,???

    • @WildWestExtravaganza
      @WildWestExtravaganza  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! One of the tribes I was referencing were the Karankawa. Widely believed to have been cannibals, this proved to be false and a lie spread by the Spanish. However, in Hughes day he surely would have heard about these coastal cannibals which, I think, only attests to how poorly he regarded the pirates. Can't speak for the Pawnee but in most instances you'll find that the rumors of Native Americans being cannibals were either just that - rumors - or due to ritualistic warfare type stuff like taking a bite of a dead opponents heart and spitting it out. I'm not aware of any tribes who regularly ate human flesh.
