Thank you for sharing your inside knowledge George and all the best , sending my regards and best wishes to you and your family George...looking forward to the stories you have of Big Vinny ( Rest in peace the both of them ) and irish and what went down , and Sandy Alexanders stories as well
Good morning George!! Thank you for the vlog!! Hope you're doing well. I heard of Doug through Sonny's book The Life and Times of the Hells Angels. Can't wait for the continuation of your life story!! Much love and respect!! 81 FOREVER!! ❤️👊❤️👊
Sandy Alexander, was President of NYC Chapter, did a pretty good job! But like so many things, greed/power pops - in... He had 0ne very untamed, homicidal member, who carried a Big Blade. With this persons size and around 300 lbs., he probably did not need a weapon. He showed it off on the Geraldo Rivera Program on national TV around 1972... He pulled it on Robin Williams, the opportunity made it self available, in an elevator just the two... Over Robin making a Joke on Stage - something pertaining to '81'.. NOT a Wise choice!! I Must Say.. This same person was at a party later on in Northern Ohio... What happened truly saddened many. Me Cj, feel it best of George Christie, maybe explain the rest. When I given a version of events it crushed me like a beer can.
I never belonged to a club or even wished to be but for the comaradery as a hang around would be cool. I'm 73 now, been riding since I was 14 and I love riding. Gotta 2006 Big Dog Mastiff. Having a 6th gear is great on top of 1,916 CC's.
Hey George I'm glad u got a utube channel I always enjoyed your stories! My dad was a Mongol back in the early 70s RIP Father! Before they went to war but the stories he would tell me about the MC culture is a lot similar to what you tell! Keep up the good work George and God Bless
Another great story on. a member of HA I've come from a biker family myself and my father is a marine in Korea and retired from the reserve but Sonny gave the early hells Angles their start
@jimfoley8014 Can you imagine Doug "the thug" Orr (1946-1986) and Armond Bletcher (1942 - 1975) as a Hells Angel tag-team in a bar-room brawl?? Holy cow... they'd wipeout an entire city!!
@@jimfoley8014 I don't know a whole lot about either Doug "the thug" or his contemporary Armond Bletcher outside of what Sonny Barger wrote about him in his 2002 memoir... but Sonny did note that those two (along with Terry the Tramp) were quintessential HAs. Another former HA that comes to mind (though I cannot think of his name off the top of my head).... was fellow that went to prison for beating up a dude from rival biker club.... did his time... got out... applied for and successfully received a "certificate of rehabilitation" from the governor of California (one of the very few given out)... then went on to get his pilot's license and became an accomplished pilot... though I think he perished in plane crash in Australia or something... but don't quote me on that.
@@jimfoley8014 Edit: Here is the story on the Hells Angel I was thinking of (quoted directly from Sonny's book): "Norton Bob rode a Harley and a BSA, but originally he had a Norton, which is how he got the name. He transferred to Oakland from San Diego as a club member in high standing. During a war with a rival motorcycle club, Norton was sent to the joint for messing up one of their members real bad. When he was released from prison, he received a certificate of rehabilitation from the governor, one of the very few given out. He went on to become an accomplished pilot and raced airplanes. Norton also designed special aerodynamic parachutes and formed his own aviation company. Norton died while delivering a custom twin-engine airplane to a client in New Zealand. They had stripped it out and installed extra gas tanks for the long journey across the Pacific, but when one engine went out, the weight of the cargo was too much and his plane crash-dived into a wave. We received the last transmissions from the Coast Guard and apparently Norton had lost altitude fast and disappeared somewhere down under".

One percenters are a mixed lot. I get the whole square peg into a round hole in society and finding like minded people. I’ve been on the outside of the cool and popular too, so I get it. But the thuggery and heavy handedness of them along with drug distribution sullied anything romantic about them.
Been waiting.. George who was the guy that built the custom zippos ? I seen a guy that has a massive collection of HA stuff and he had some unique zippos that one of yall were making back in the day
Awesome story thks. Lots of stories still going around in AZ about him. Lobotomies were supposedly used to “ bring ppl out of depression “ is what I was taught in college. I have a gf that is 69 & has a l. She always was very flat emotionally. But she has dementia really bad now. & is mean as hell !! Hits ppl, throwing things etc. I don’t know how that all fits together but very sad to see her like that. But won’t quit seeing her till her God takes her. She is my biker friend always!!! ❤❤. Take care!! Supporter 🔥🪽🌵
My crazy uncle had shock treatment and a front lobotomy. They forget to put the mouth guard in and he bit down so hard when they shocked him, he smashed all his own teeth out from the bite force.
NO, George they Started 'Lobotomies' in England, right after "THE BATTLE of The BULGE", my dear UNCLE was on that Front... Rain, weather, battle My Uncle had severe "TRENCH FEET" almost to point of amputation, the Command demanded he be sent back to England... FEW Days later my Uncles ENTIRE BATTLE GROUP was WIPED-OUT 100%.. Don, was 6'4'' , 260 lbs. ++, once he informed this muscle bound giant "Lost-IT", no one could hold DON down..... he be one of the First given this UNGODLY TREATMENT. YOU NEED To STUDY this Topic More... That MY DEAR MOTHERs Youngest Brother....He a Real Regular Feller before, Great HERO who once jumped into a Lake to SAVE A Dog IN Trouble from drowning.... ALWAYS LOVED HIM DEARLY, my Mother told us she considered always - He died With HIS Battle Group.....

I grew up on the east coast in a 1%er household that was dominant in my city and they were big rivals of the HA's and i heard stories about Doug the thug
I grew up not far from the Oakland chapter clubhouse in the 80s so I have a natural curiosity. Doug the Thug murdered his girlfriend but no source explains why.
George do u know why Doug was in hospital in first place that had that shit happening to his brain .i really thought you guys did good job with him george .

Another great history lesson. Thanks George.
He still can't seem to coax himself into uttering the actual purpose of the Hells Angels.

I love listening to his stories. He tells them so well. Thanx Cool
From what I've heard, Doug ruled his tier in San Quentin where he OD'd. Everyone was afraid of him. Died at 40 years old. RIP

Looking forward to the Big Vinny and Sandy stories. Always interesting times on St. Marks and on 3rd
Love your videos , I grew up in the 80 and 90s , nothing like today
try the 60's and 70's if you want to see nothing like today
@@plutoplattersi agree.
I tell my adult children I wish they could've grown up in the 60's, 70's and 80's. We had great childhoods.
Next do a story on sandy Alexander Cisco armond bletcher blind bob & more on slave Louie. Loved the Doug the thug story. Great video.

Always a pleasure Georgie, thanks for doing a story on the thug,🙏
Much love and Big Respect Brother
Another solid story thanks mr Christie

Thank You Sir for sharing those story’s with us,can’t wait for the next episode MLH&R
Thanks for letting us hear this George
Doug was much of a man. I never got to meet him, but I heard many a good story about him and I wore my free Doug The Thug T-shirt many years!
Ur the best George…if I’d been involved I would of supported you 110%
Another great story on. a member of HA I've come from a biker family myself and my father is a marine in Korea and retired from the reserve but Sonny gave the early hells Angles their start
Great video GC! Thanks for sharing! 👍🏻🇺🇸🍻🏍
Hello and thanks.Tim from outside Toronto, Canada. Take care.
Thank you George 🏍️ 🍻 keep it coming
Every man should have 3% to 6% Doug Orr in them. But 100% Doug Orr would be a problem.
I think the people he went to jail with had that happen to them 😂
@jimfoley8014
Can you imagine
Doug "the thug" Orr (1946-1986)
and Armond Bletcher (1942 - 1975)
as a Hells Angel tag-team
in a bar-room brawl??
Holy cow...
they'd wipeout
an entire city!!
@@VredesStall Doug was from Daly City. Which is right next to my hometown. Would love to know his origin story.
@@jimfoley8014
I don't know a whole lot about
either Doug "the thug" or his
contemporary Armond Bletcher
outside of what Sonny Barger
wrote about him in his 2002 memoir...
but Sonny did note that those two
(along with Terry the Tramp)
were quintessential HAs.
Another former HA that comes to mind
(though I cannot think of his
name off the top of my head)....
was fellow that went to prison
for beating up a dude
from rival biker club....
did his time... got out...
applied for and successfully received
a "certificate of rehabilitation"
from the governor of California
(one of the very few given out)...
then went on to get his pilot's license
and became an accomplished pilot...
though I think he perished in plane crash
in Australia or something...
but don't quote me on that.
@@jimfoley8014
Edit:
Here is the story on the
Hells Angel I was thinking of
(quoted directly from Sonny's book):
"Norton Bob rode a Harley and a BSA,
but originally he had a Norton,
which is how he got the name.
He transferred to Oakland from San Diego
as a club member in high standing.
During a war with a rival motorcycle club,
Norton was sent to the joint for messing up
one of their members real bad.
When he was released from prison,
he received a certificate of
rehabilitation from the governor,
one of the very few given out.
He went on to become an

Norton also designed special aerodynamic parachutes
and formed his own aviation company.
Norton died while delivering a custom
twin-engine airplane to a client in New Zealand.
They had stripped it out and installed extra

but when one engine went out, the weight of the cargo
was too much and his plane crash-dived into a wave.
We received the last transmissions from the Coast Guard

and disappeared somewhere down under".
Police and Fire Publishing has an episode featuring Doug the Thug complete with newspaper articles and pictures.
Can you do a video about Charlie Magoo? I heard Willie Nelson's " Angel Flying To Close To The Ground " was written for him.
Always great to check out youtube and see a notification that a new vid has dropped
Thank you for this story.
New Sub ... Much love Brotha ...from New Jersey U.S..... ❤😊
Looking forward to the Big Vinny episode......would like to hear more about Sandy Alexander too.....
Yeah , I think a few of us are waiting for that story concerning those two legendary members
Great story. Thanks for sharing
My old man was Harry O and my Momma was Colleen ... thank you for everything
Friso?
Wow 20 plus thousand views. Keep doing what you’re doing. I grew up with guys your age. I have the upmost respect for you and your generation

Excellent American oral folk history. Real fine. Thanks.

If there's truth to Vinnie throwing his girlfriend off the roof. He's not worthy of a tribute.

Always very interesting
Interesting Stuff! Thanks!
One percenters are a mixed lot. I get the whole square peg into a round hole in society and finding like minded people. I’ve been on the outside of the cool and popular too, so I get it. But the thuggery and heavy handedness of them along with drug distribution sullied anything romantic about them.
enjoy your stories / thanks
Good story, ,pictures of these people would make it that much more interesting , Thanks, keep riding free.
If Doug had been in Colorado we would have known. Seems like most of the guys in the family loved my mom.
I'm really enjoying your content.

Photos of his funeral??
*_Dug the Thug for president!_* 👣👣👣👣👣👣👣
Just curious George, why wasn't he riding a motorcycle ?
Welcome. I ride a triumph but i ride. Everywhere.
My crazy uncle had shock treatment and a front lobotomy. They forget to put the mouth guard in and he bit down so hard when they shocked him, he smashed all his own teeth out from the bite force.
Is he still alive? How's he holding up right now?
THATS FUCKING INSANE
Nah. That didn't happen.
More likely, his teeth rotted from meds.
Ahhh fuck .get well
