I wonder if William Shakespeare was alive in their day,what tragedy would he have wrote and called it to reflect the loss and anguish left behind. Well done young lady for a beautiful tribute to alove haunted by death,grief but never forgotten. Kind regards from the uk. My Irish grandad was 16 years of age when this happened so probably felt the pain along with other Irish people at the loss of Michael Collins.
Thank you for your lovely comment, I was inspired to create this video from my first visit to Michael Collins' grave and seeing the Valentines. After remembering that Kitty Kiernan was buried nearby, I realised that I could create something out of it. I feel Shakespeare could have created something out of it, if he were here today. Thank you so much.
He wasn't killed by "anti Irish rebels" . He was shot by anti treaty irregulars. Very big difference.
Amen!
There are plenty of people who feel Dev and his ilk gave up their right to be called Irish for what they did. If Collins had lived, he would've accomplished what he promised in a few short years after that tragic treaty, the retaking of those 6 counties; Dev was no more than a power-hungry fascist who preferred to rule in hell rather than to serve in heaven. A pox on his name.
He was killed by the IRA because he had betrayed Ireland.
@@frostyfrances4700 It was Collins' party that supported fascism.
He had already ended support for the rebels in Northern Ieland before the IRA killed him.
@@JamesRichards-mj9kw - NOT SO!
Michael Collins was one of the greatest heroes that ever walked on this Earth
He was a traitor to Ireland.
@@JamesRichards-mj9kw your full of crap you dont have a clue what he was planning to do he never disbanded three IRA groups they had their orders but he died before they could be carried out you got no idea
Ireland would of been far superior if the big fella lived. No church rule would of been sure , he was well ahead of his time .
what a surprise, well done presentation
i learned something new today😊regards
Thank you for this video, I often wondered if Kitty was able to have a normal life. It appears she tried.

Well done and thank you.
My mother was against home rule for Ireland,but whenever we passed by the curve on the road where Collins was ambushed she would stop and we would pay our respects to The Big Man,a great Irish hero,regardless of political affiliations.
Please be aware that the picture supposedly of Michael and Kitty at Croke Park, which is used at 1.13 in your video, is a fake, exposed as such a good while ago.
I actually wasn't aware of that, I was going through pictures to find Michael and Kitty together and this was one of the only decent ones I could fine. But thanks for letting me know!
Well done ms Gallagher
Love is love...
They slipped away to go dance on the wind because love never dies 🎉
I have also heard that Michael had many, many love interests
Yes I also heard that some were English aristocratic women. He was a good looking fellow apparently
He died a virgin.
Anti Treaty men shot him not anti Irish. They were all Irish mate
WHY IS ULSTER NORTHERN IRELAND BRITAIN
No he was a pawn for devlora
When things mattered.
Irish Rebel my family used to call him that when i asked who was he ? they smiled when they said that, he had lived with them and and one of his sisters in the East End until conscription in 1916
Ernesto Guevara in the 60's stood by that grave before he left for Bolivia
Thats very interesting.Id love to hear more memories they may have had of that time ?
@@hirepgym6913Ernesto Guevara Lynch.
@@hirepgym6913 Guevera thankfully got what he deserved, like the traitor Collins.
@@JamesRichards-mj9kw that wasnt nice was it ? i am a Collins and a undefeated multi times world champion and multi times world record holder in strength sports and you are ?
The Big Fellas Birthday Tomorrow, Erin GO Bragh ❤🇮🇪
1 of rhe bravest irish men in the world
Micheal collins brave iriah man in the world god reat his soul
Someday Ireland will be whole and free
Outside the EU?
I thought he was a hero but he sold Ulster to Britain and we have suffered ever since the Irish Republic were traitor we asked for help and we were Made to suffer the troubles
Before my family moved to the colonies in the early 1900's looking for a better life, they were from Leith in Scotland, today it's part of Edinburgh. Worked in the naval construction industry
People there were so poor they could hardly afford to buy a pair of shoes and children walked barefoot, people went hungry because they couldn't afford food everyday. Look it up pictures of Scotland in the 1800's, 1900's, the poverty is horrifying. We share this exploitation by the UK government with you guys. And even the own English people were exploited and lived in near slave labor
But we never had heroic figures like Michael Collins and Patrick Pearse, we also share the sentiment of adoration for those martyrs and heroes from Ireland.
If there's a villain here it's the UK government, they've been exploiting their own population for a long long time
There was a vote on this issue and the people voted in favour of the pro treaty party now finne Gael the country is split in two on this issue and now the pro and anti treaty parties are in coalition to keep the shiners out the irony
I very much empathize with Ulster about how badly Irish Nationalist have been treated by the British and Unionists, but Collins did not sell Ulster out. Collins tried until his dying day to take Ulster from British rule. Ulster was partitioned in 1920 in the Government of Ireland Act, and came into force as a fait accompli on 3 May 1921. The Treaty was signed in December, 2021 and Griffith was tricked into allowing the partition language to remain. However, Collins never accepted the partition and continued to smuggle arms to the Ulster IRA and take real life steps to free Ulster. It was only after his death in August of 1922 that the Free State Government abdicated responsibility for overturning the partition. Recognition of the real situation is necessary if it is ever to be rectified.
@@andrewkash7273 Collins betrayed Ireland, which is why the IRA killed him.
@@SaveJenny Collins had already stopped sending weapons north before the IRA killed the traitor.
Ok
The story of Michael and Kitty is none my business or your business, they both are with their maker, back off and let them rest in peace. 🇮🇪🙏✝️☘️🕊
There was nothing wrong with what she presented… Relax! Btw when you make yourself a public figure there is part of you that is naturally in the public.
@AgentClaytonWebb Thank you for your kind words, this started off as a simple college project, but then when the anniversary occured, I decided to post it.

I feel this video was well done and I like that I was able to watch it. As an American, an Irish-American, with both of my dad’s parents from Galway, I like to get all the view points on our history. Thank you for making this video.
