The Curse of Tippecanoe is the supposed pattern of deaths in office of every single American President elected in a year ending in zero going back to the 1840 election. But is it truly a curse? Or just...ya know...another weird series of coincidences.
In 1840, William Henry Harrison does get elected President, but after just 31 days in office, dies from pneumonia. He is the first American President in history to die while in office. Flash forward 20 years later, and Abraham Lincoln is elected President. Lincoln is assassinated after being re-elected on April 15, 1865. He is the first American President in history to be assassinated. 20 years after Lincoln is first elected, James Garfield is elected President. Garfield is the second President assassinated, on September 19, 1881. 20 years after Garfield is elected, William McKinley is re-elected President. He is the third President assassinated, on September 14, 1901. 20 years after McKinley is re-elected, Warren Harding is elected President. Harding dies of a heart attack on August 2, 1923. 20 years after Harding was elected President, Franklin Roosevelt is re-elected for an unprecedented third term. On April 12, 1945, after being re-elected an unprecedented FOURTH term, he dies of cerebral hemorrhage. 20 years after Roosevelt is re-elected a third time, John F. Kennedy is elected President. Kennedy is the fourth President assassinated, on November 22, 1963. 20 years after Kennedy is elected, Ronald Reagan is elected President. Reagan is assassinated on March 30, 1981.
Wait hold up. Reagan didn’t die because of that shooting. He survived the shooting! The curse is broken!
So obviously there are a lot of coincidences here, but there are plenty of folks who criticize the so-called Curse of Tippecanoe.
There are logical fallacies left and right. This supposed curse is an example of confusing correlation with causation, cherry picking information to fit a narrative, and moving the goalposts in order to make the narrative work. This is a similar case to all those Lincoln-JFK coincidences. While the Curse of Tippecanoe is fascinating, the closer you look at it, the less fascinating it becomes. For example, what about Zachary Taylor? He died while in office but was elected in 1848. What about the fact that FDR was still in office LONGER THAN ANY OTHER PRESIDENT AND LITERALLY DID MORE AND HAD MORE OF AN EFFECT ON THE COUNTRY THAN ANY OTHER PRESIDENT? What about the fact that all the Presidents died in different ways and in different situations?

Will Joe Biden run for a second term?
🤷♀️
Well, he already said he’ll do it again in 2024 and wants Kamala Harris again as his running mate.
William Henry Harrison 2024
he is too old
He says he will, but I seriously doubt it. It'll be Harris.
Fun Fact: every president before Jimmy Carter has died
And two presidents after him died as well
and his vice president died 3 weeks ago
Holy shit! No way

Yes. I guess I never put it that way in the video, did I?
But he was almost assassinated
And he was nearly killed, so Biden should look out
@@joseantonioamayaalvarado6744 yeah and it's not like it's unlikely with this political climate
Further proof of the antichrist 👁
Supposedly, the Curse extends to the residents that live around the Tippecanoe River. Some of my family members believe that if you don't take a jar with the river water with you when you move away, you'll end up back by the river until you die.
Thats such a cool urban legend! Good luck
Teacher: "Why are you chuckling?"
My brain: *Tippecanoe and Tyler too*
Teddy gets shot in 1912 and turns to some onlookers and says, "No, I WILL not die. You must take notice that the year is 1912 for this assasination attempt is premature and I will survive. BULLY!"

"who is the true ere to the house of Washington. How is the true Monarch."
I had a scoutmaster who once told me "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story." I'm definitely adding this story to my file.
Apparently Reagan surviving his assassination attempt broke the curse.
Curse-breakin' Reagan.
He did die. It was his double.
Bush and Reagan were both Incapacitated during their presidencies during surgery. The curse lives on.
When I went on a tour in DC, the tour guide said it was because when he made his Inaugural speech, he made it on the opposite side of the Capitol to what prior Presidents did. This apparently helped him avoid the curse.
He didnt broke the curse, he instead amplify it, instead of the US president dying on the year that ends with 0's it will be the US as a nation that dies. The entire 2020's is the results of Reagen surviving and the decline of the US Supremacy, he shouldve had kept the curse under control and sacrificed himself imo
I feel like the Garfield assassination should mention that he didn't die due to the bullet wound. He died from an infection months later because the doctors didn't wash their hands before surgery.
I thought it was because they put him on a bed with no springs so his back got injured and they didn't realize until after he died
Just like modern nurses, well a certain group in Canada which doesn't culturally believe in hand washing.
It's only getting worse with the creams an "cures" they use on their hands which react poorly with industrial quality soaps.
It's why hospitals are germ traps.
Stay healthy my friend.
The leader of the search of Garfields body only said to check on the wrong side because he didn’t want to be proven wrong. Immediately after he was shot they went in his body ON THE FLOOR. Even though the floor had GERMS, and back then germs could lead to death. 🤦♂️
@@nathananderson716 No, it was that they scanned him on a bed WITH springs that made the surgeons search all around his body for fractions of the bullet. Leading to increased trauma, blood loss and eventually infection. There was evidence after his death that his body actually surrounded the bullet with scar tissue and he would have likely survived. Do no increased harm... take that Hippocratus

I remember when Reagan was shot. I just got back to the barracks from class. We ran up to our room & turned on the tv. He was at the hospital. We didn't know if he was okay or not. We just sat there quietly watching the tv.
The first guy to say something said, "It's that curse."
Fortunately we didn't lose another president. I hope we never do again.
As a direct descendant of Tecumseh, I have never heard about Prophet making any curse. Good story though. You also left out that Tecumseh was invited to speak with a governor, and while they sat outside on a bench, Tecumseh kept moving closer to the governor, and the governor would move over. Tecumseh kept doing this until the governor finally said, “if you keep moving over I will fall off this bench”, Tecumseh replied, “is that not what you are doing to my people”? Smart man.
@Alexander Yeager Thats funny, because we have a news paper clipping from 1959 stating that Anne Dick my great great grandmother was a direct descendant of Tecumseh. If you like, send me your Email address and I will send you a copy.
@Alexander Yeager my great great grandmother and my great grandmother and grand mother and mother were all buried on the reservation in OK. Apparently you know better then my ancestors of Our Shawnee blood line. I do not think my great great grandmother would have had any reason to lie about being a decedent of Tecumseh since that is, like you said to easy to verify. What is your blood line and proof that there is only one descendent left?
@Alexander Yeager So you must be very young or immature if you have to make fun of somebody to settling a disagreement. I guess you cannot prove your bloodline or verify I’m not a descendent. If you can no longer continue to act like an adult, please do not reply. Have a great evening.
@Alexander Yeager I have not given up anything. My Great grandmother married John Secondine the Delaware chief. We were always told we were Shawnee and Delaware. The news paper article I mentioned shows five generations of Indians if your interested in seeing it. As far as Reiki, I mistook your emojis as making fun. I became a Reiki Master 2018 and worked on my co workers for free durning lunch hour. Since retiring I have not been practicing as much.
@Alexander Yeager is it under your name?
“Tippecanoe and Tyler too” the best campaign slogan ever😀
For real
Indeed.
”Keep cool with Coolidge”: Am I a joke to you?
“I like Ike” comes in a close second
Imagine voting Tippecanoe and only getting Tyler too.
We are good at making patterns out of nothing.
Indeed! I guess that's how we've survived so long. Then again, other species have survived like, way longer.
The human mind has the incredible capacity of noticing patterns out of the smallest things, even it it either doesn't matter or it's just a random chance of luck.
That's where superstitious beliefs come from.
Figures. A student of the quran says such a mindless thing. Thats explains those countries too. Thats why they still live in the stone age with sheets on their heads.
@@aee6509 what?
If you want to know more about Tecumseh, I’d recommend “A Sorrow In Our Heart” by Allen Eckert.
Tecumseh was an interesting man of vision who’s death was a tragedy. Whether you agree with him or not, he sought to save his people.
A great book!
My grandma used to say it was Raegans wife who broke it cause she worked with her psychic 😅
I said that!
Makes sense
I heard it all the American native Americans tribes got together and didn't ,but Nancy Reagan broke it .So that why her husband did not die .
I seem I movie on it a long time ago .
... massive eye roll ...
A lot of people mention the fact that Zachary Taylor died in office but wasn’t elected in a year ending in zero. Zachary Taylor, however, did die in the year 1850, which does end with zero.
But he’s the only president who died in office in a year ending in 0. W.H. Harrison, Garfield and McKinley died in years ending 1. Lincoln and F.D. Roosevelt died in years ending in 5. And Harding and Kennedy died in years ending in 3.
@@daerdevvyl4314 what de flip
Where are those goalposts??? I can't see 'em!
I bet that the curse was broken when Raegan’s and Bush’s assassination attempts failed.
I hope so :)
@@iammrbeat I’m assuming there will be an assassination attempt, but Biden won’t be killed

@@jimmyandtimmy8514 ngl kinda pissed off but oh well what you gonna do?
I remember this theory. I was so pleased when it was dispelled when Reagan did not die from his assassination attempt. I thought that theory would then be adjusted to various other theories...Another unscientific theory completely dispelled! great work!
Bush and Reagan were both Incapacitated during their presidencies during surgery. The curse lives on.
I have always called this the "Coincidence of Tippecanoe" in my class, and I use it to show exactly what you just did here: logical fallacies and coincidence and legend do not make reality. Great video!
I keep telling people about the curse at parties but no one thinks I'm cool yet. I'll keep trying.
Yes, keep trying. Oh, and I definitely think you are cool.
you should tell them about ronald wilson reagan = 666. it worked for huey freeman

The curse of Tippecanoe is a very interesting subject to me, so it’s really nice to see that you are making a video on it.
I'm glad I finally got to make it!
It's a little creepy, but interesting
"I'm a professional Tweeter ..." I wouldn't brag about that.
You are adorable. But I also think your videos are a great teaching tool You have the talent of explaining a difficult subject almost like a fairy tale, the excitement, suspense (sans the cheesiness), makes it fun to learn and easy to understand. Thank you

I'm sure his diet and exercise are fine, I hope they are. But he's not "well". My grandfather died last August from Dementia and Alzeimers disease. I've seen first hand what those symptoms are and how victims carry themselves. Biden fits the bill almost perfectly. Anyone who has lost family to those conditions will tell you the same. Watching Biden reminds me of my grandfather and it makes me sad to see him under the pressure of being the POTUS. I personally don't like his policies, but I don't hate him. I feel empathetic for him because I can tell he's not doing well mentally.
@@Doriesep6622 Bwahahaha! Dementia Joe does not have long. And you should try to get Trump out of your head, if you can. It’s not easy to forget the greatest President.
@@Doriesep6622 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣
I’d feel sorry for you but the delusion is hilarious. Dementia joe can’t even get through a cnn townhall without sounding like half his brain is turned to mush. But keep deluding yourself. You might actually believe it one day.
The curse was lifted by Reagan when he survived his assassination attempt. When Dubya made it two terms unscathed, that was the definitive end.

You should do a video on what would happen if all of the 50 states left the Union and where they would rank on country lists (for example, Where Alabama would rank in countries by economy, population, etc,) and other stuff. Hope you like the idea!
You can easily do that yourself with population and GDP listed online for every state.
However the flaw with such a comparison is that without the national free trade union and national transportation infrastructure, many seemingly very wealthy states would quickly fall into very hard times and be resource starved.
California would not be able to water its population or crops without international deals. Most of its import trade from Asia is transported freely to other union member states. That would dry up....
Similar for many other states so it is a worthless comparison. Individual oranges from a crate of apples.

Mr. Beat, why'd it have to take THREE presidential assassinations before the Secret Service was given full-time presidential protection duties? Love your videos btw
It's called "moving at the speed of Government." This is why you don't want them in charge of anything important in your life, except the one thing they do half-assed: go to war.
@@jackmessick2869 that's why they killed Kennedy. They wanted him dead so they could start the Vietnam War since Kennedy did NOT wanted to send troops to die (Okay yeah, he did send troops to die in the Bay of Pigs invasion, but afterwards he did not)

Mr. Beat that intro has put you on an FBI watchlist
The Shawnee were frozen out of the treaty negotiations, the government saying they didn't have a home territory.
Harrison also used alcohol to get the Miami, Potawatimi and Fox tribes to get them to sign a treaty that was far from fair.
Any chance you will ever do a Human freedom index video? I often see people using it as a source who often misrepresent it and think it would be a great topic for a social studies teacher.

Oh wow Mr. Beat looks a little like Tipecanoe, oh no, don’t die, we need more videos from you 😅. Great posting!!
in a way ronald reagan was still somewhat cursed because he had Alzheimer's after leaving the presidency that was very tragic in fact when someone brought a model of the white house to Ronald Reagan he said you know i know this from somewhere in my life but i just can't remember it.
And same for George W. Bush because he dealt with 9/11 ,hurricane katrina and the 2008 financial crisis and is still unpopular .
When I learned about this in AP US History, we were told that it was supposed to be any President from Harrison's Party (Whigs) or any that got elected in a zero year. Probably just moving the goalposts a little, but that would include Taylor since he was a Whig.
to be fair it’s not like the curse of tippecanoe causes deaths to *only* the presidents that were elected on the corresponding years, so zachary taylor doesn’t disprove it
William Henry Harrison and company matched about 10 miles west of my boyhood home going and coming from the battle. There were not many European settlers in the area and those that were, were of French/native American mixed descent... only family sided with Harrison and became guides. All the others were forced out of the area afterwards because they allied with Tecumseh.
Great content!!
Excellent video... This is local here Lafayette Indiana, there is now a new state park "prophets town" haven't been able to visit yet.. bec ause of pandemic, but have heard it's great! There is a great battleground museum that's nice for anyone driving thru.. it's free and very educational!
I was hoping you'd make this video because this curse just fascinates me!
Me too!
Mr. Beat is that teacher who won’t yell in to his students in class
The first Indian casino was built in Florida by the Seminole tribe, which opened a successful high-stakes bingo parlour in 1979, thus breaking the curse.
Confusing this curse is "who was really elected in 2020?"

Lived close to the city called Tippacanoe. It has been renamed Tipp City. Went to a high school called Tecumseh. There are Native burial mounds too. Lots of history here
Moral of the story: had Martin Van Buren been elected in 1840 none of these guys would have died in office
Plus, having "von" or "van" in the middle of your name just sounds cool
As soon as I saw the word “Tippecanoe”, I immediately thought “and Tyler too!”
When I saw the title, my inner conspiracy nut said, "Wow, they are warming us up to the idea rather early eh?"
Watching this I just waiting for the shoe incident to be mentioned. I was not disappointed.
I have never heard of Tecumseh's curse or the curse of Tippecanoe or anything like that, so it was interesting to see how people can twist and bend their minds to male connections that are actually pretty unrelated if you don't think about it too much.
how does mr beat always read my mind, everytime i watch another video or think about something he uploads a video on it
I love the way this guy talks and explains things... So clear, so methodical
Well, he's a teacher
And I love how he adds humor to his videos
Could you do a video ranking the top 5 chief justices of all time?
True story. My buddy got busted with a joint in Tippecanoe Michigan. He was the smartest kid a knew and had a full ride too Michigan tech college. His parents were super strict and disowned him and lost his scholarship and kicked out of college over literally a joint. He became suicidal and depressed and try to kill himself a bunch of times and seemed to fail every time. He drove his brand-new Pontiac vibe into a tree at like 70mph according to the police. They found him unconscious in the trunk with superficial injuries. The front of the car was in the back seat. This curse has to be real. I haven't seen him in a long time. This curse left him just miserable and couldn't even die.
@Mr. Beat Just want to say you do an outstanding job and I enjoy the history videos. Many of us in the US have had been educated in some of our history as a nation but very much cherry picked moments in US history. Keep pushing against the grain Mr. beat and hopefully we all will be better for it. Thank you
Clicked faster than my dad could come back with milk
Not a hard to beat goal huh?
It's actually "the curse of the no leap years when you would expect them." But that's not as dramatic sounding.
in Canada there is a town named after Techumseh and the way its pronounced here is his name sounds like see at the end
I had no idea that a curse like this existed. Thanks dude!
Mr Beat you should do the top 5 best and worst campaign slogans ever in 2 different videos about it. it would be awesome!
Does anybody else notice Reagan's home state, California, was west of the Mississippi river? Every "cursed" president before had a home state east of the Mississippi. George W. Bush didn't die in office either probably because he was from Texas, which was also west of the river… All of those elected for President in a year ending in 0 and had a home state east of the Mississippi died in office but those elected for President in a year ending in 0 and had a home state west of the Mississippi didn't. Joe Biden is from Delaware, which is east… Biden expressed a desire to run for reelection, meaning the more time he spends in office, the higher chance there is for him to die there. If he dies in office, that would be scary considering my findings, but it can be found a coincidence, especially supported by Biden's old age and his possible extended time in office.
Fun video, Mr. Beat.
Mr Beat, you could start a new "mid term elections in american history" series, love your videos by the way
This is also based off the Jupiter/ Saturn conjunctions that happen every 20 years. Astrologers have used the Jupiter/ Saturn conjunctions to represent the beginnings and ends of empires for thousands of years and a few presidents have died under the Jupiter/ Saturn conjunctions. The Jupiter/ Saturn Conj in the 80’s (Reagan) was the first one in an air signs, and although there was one last conj in the earth sign Taurus in 2000’s, the one we just had was the first one in air signs for the next 200 years. Some of you might remember the great conjunction in aquarius that happened this past December. Although joe Biden didn’t go (yet) it is interesting how militarized and protected DC was in that moment.
So basically, Reagan was so cool that he broke a curse from a native shaman over 140 years before
Fun fact to bring up is that both Lincoln and FDR both surived the 0 year terms for which they were elected, they both were reelected for the following term in a year ending in 4, and died early into the terms following the 0 year terms.
I saw a program that talked about this (I can't remember the name of the program) and they called it the Zero Year Curse. There they said it was Nancy Reagan who broke the "Zero Year Curse" by consulting with an astrologer and planned President Reagan's events and public appearances according to what the astrologer recommended.
Pretty interesting legend. Great job on the video!
Mr. Beat is the teacher everyone wants!
Orson Scott Card has a dope ass historical fiction series about Tecumseh and early American settlers (with magic abilities) its called Alvin Maker and I really enjoy how bad ass it portrays some historical leaders, Tecumseh being one.
