Never ceases to amaze me that your channel is made by two people. Chris research and enthralling voice. Joe amazing artwork and music. I'll keep watching as long you guys keep making them.
I’m truly in awe of old school bounty hunters and lawman , no gps , no DNA , no air surveillance, not even basic phones , and still got the job done , crazy skills!
"To the town of Agua Fria rode a stranger one fine day Hardly spoke to folks around him, didn't have too much to say No one dared to ask his business, no one dared to make a slip For the stranger, there among them had a big iron on his hip" These lyrics hit different after watching this video. Thanks for keeping the internet educational!
“hot damn partner, that’s a mighty big iron you got there” “your damn right, and know this feller, Dynamite Dick’s got this biggest iron this side of the Mississippi”
I've never understood how this channel doesn't have more of a following. There isn't a single video that doesn't educate in the most entertaining way possible
That plot twist at the end was crazy! I refuse to believe they imprisoned Dynamite Dick tho. How could that be?! He would blow his way out of any cell! Lol
I loved how you did the plot twist at the end revealing Canton's true identity, was not expecting that and it was a perfect way to bring it to a dramatic end. Well done, my first video of yours, you got a new subscriber! :)
This is what make American history and myths come to be viewed and etched within the literature, films, and music about the America. This is the history drawn me into learning the virtues, vices and value of the American Free Spirit.
dalton gang's also a great western band out of denver fronted by james dalton. though, it you're a peacemakers or railbenders fan, you probably already know this.
On rewatch, there are some tiny hints about how Canton knew outlaws could disappear and hide under aliases, and that he knew the story of Joe Horner. But the hints were hidden well :)
Oh my God.. I used to play football and baseball in Coffeyville all the time 😂 it's only like, an hour and a half away from me. Murder and Mayhem in Bourbon County is a good read that's based around my home town.
Frank Canton was in fact a an outlaw before he moved and became a sheriff. Wild West Extravaganza has a comprehensive, three hour long episode dedicated to him
This episode was amazing. I love your guys work but this was my favorite yet. I felt immersed in this story. I could watch a whole season of this wild west topic. Beautiful art as always and great writing once again! I show your videos to people to get them interested in history because your videos are so entertaining. Great work guys. Truly amazing. I appreciate your hard work!
Another banger as always. What a gorgeous intro. That shot of the two riders under the moonlight. The mix of real historical imagery and Joe's masterworks are simply gorgeous. History Dose doesn't miss.
When i see a top tier video, I like to log my full thoughts with a comment to help the video STICK with me: I wonder how many times part of this story has been portrayed in fiction. This made me really want to learn more about these characters, as immoral as they are. I think i prefer the Wild West over city mafia stories, because the vast open spaces help balance the unfair, cold blood killings with an adventurous atmosphere. Though I'm sure some of the battles weren't ambushes, and were decided by strategy after each side was aware of the other's presence. It's so fascinating to me that there was an era like the Old West, where even everyday men needed a gun for safety. There may never be another era of pure, independent survival like this again in human history; maybe pure independence or survival, but not both to this degree. I wouldn't choose to live in this era, but if I had to, i would make the most of it (without being a criminal). The extreme nature of the Old West world is what makes it so captivating, without the need to be one of its immoral main characters. You can picture what it'd be like just to be an ordinary person in these stories, which would be like nothing else. As far as this specific video goes, you guys certainly worked your top tier magic! You couldn't have picked a better way to instantly convey the immorality, danger, and freedom of the Old West; the Dalton Gang was so greedy that they tried to rob TWO banks at the same time, before getting defeated by... ordinary citizens! Once we meet Frank Canton with his intense bounty motive, see the Daltin Gang become the Doolin Gang, and watch the criminal Dunn Brothers start a SKETCHY alliance with Canton... You just know this story HAS THE MAKINGS of a TV series! All the events that followed made me think "Stuff this TV-like actually happened!?" So Canton and the Dunn Brothers, who have zero moral trustworthiness due to their pasts, team up to hunt down the Doolin Gang, who the Dunn Brothers are basically friends with! WHAT COULD GO WRONG? Anyways, great job with literally every aspect of presenting this story, with the magical narration and impeccable high-effort NON-AI art and sound design. Nice slight detour with the Native American reservations to help anchor the story to a well-known time period, since most people don't know when the Wild West began and ended. The Doolin Gang sucking up to townsfolk and becoming popular reminded me of your Mafia videos, where some mafias were well liked by their community, who knew the charity but not the evil side of them. When Canton showed up to stake-out the Dunn's area where the Doolin Gang were bound to come by, it was as dramatic of a setup as any two-part season finale. Canton then misses his chance to get any Doolin, but the Dunn brothers got the huge Doolin kills instead. Really like the detective vibe with not knowing how immoral those kills were. I like how there's an elite group of criminal hunters called the Three Guardsmen. They could probably have their own movie, though it'd be a lot of killing, given their insanely high kill count. Of course they end up being morally sketchy like everyone else in the story, though maybe not on the same level as the main cast. The Dunns not paying Canton, and Canton trying to arrest Bee Dunn shows a shift where it's no longer smoldering envy, but them being outright enemies. I guess having similar corruptness doesn't unite them! This official enemy status (between Canton and the Dunn Brothers) makes the story NOT feel over when the Three Guardsmen (and the Dunn Brothers) kill the "main" antagonist of the story, Bill Doolin. All of this bounty hunting has revealed everyone's demons and true nature, so there's bound to be one more selfish betrayal. I really like the way you portrayed the final showdown between Bee Dunn and Frank Canton. Most youtubers would tell one version of the fight and make it unclear that it's loose speculation, but you guys made it clear that nobody knows what happened here, other than Canton winning. Crazy how Frank Canton was a made up identity the whole time! Now let's get a big movie studio to see this video , so they're inspired to make one about at least one of these characters!
I LOVE westerns and neo-westerns. My favorite channel covering my favorite era of American history. You brother nailed the artworkagaib. Can't get much better than that. Thank you HD! Fun fact; Theres an amazing show that Tyler Sheridan(Yellowstone/Lioness) worked on called Lawmen; BASS REEVES. Great show about his story.
The collapse of the Syrian Army is a stark example of how internal instability and prolonged conflict can erode even the most established military institutions. The combination of defections, corruption, and overstretched resources created a situation where the army could no longer function effectively. It’s fascinating, yet tragic, to see how quickly a modern military can disintegrate under these pressures.
I’m am from nowata, which is just south of coffeyville. One of the things that I always thought was cool is there is a pipe over the dalton gang grave at the cemetery in coffeyville. The reason was they did not want to glorify crime with headstone. So they used a pipe as a marker.

Dude, your brother is a legend
Is there anything Joe can't do?
Music was great and the art. Script was amazing as always
@@HistoryDose Thank you sir
👍Joe
That twist was very unexpected. This real life Wild West story is pretty complicated but fascinating.
redemption arc? but inflexible justice would call it a perversion.
Like i acc recoiled in surprise neat storytelling on historydoses part istg
The fact that there was a real outlaw named "Dynamit Dick" with no apparent explanation for the nickname is just gold, gold, gold!
Right, I thought about it for a second after realizing Dick isn't short for Charles 👀
I think it was just an alliteration... maybe.
The nicknames back in those days hit HARD!! 😂😂
@@DudsynKitwali dynamite Richard doesn't have the same ring to it buddy
@@jackwebb3757I prefer Raging Richard.
Never ceases to amaze me that your channel is made by two people. Chris research and enthralling voice. Joe amazing artwork and music. I'll keep watching as long you guys keep making them.
Means a lot! Thanks! These are a lot of hard work. The comments, likes and shares go a long way :)
~Chris
“By 1899 the age of outlaws and gunslingers was at an end”
For sure! That's a big reason Canton leaves Oklahoma Territory toward the end of the video
@@HistoryDose it’s a reference to Red dead redemption 2, but still a cool fact nonetheless

As a massive Red Dead Redemption fan, excited for this video 🎉
My brother Joe did not only all the art for this but also the music! You'll hear the Red Dead influence :)

This was brilliant as always! Most immersive history videos on the entire interwebs
Thanks Stefan! Much appreciated!

I've never understood how this channel doesn't have more of a following. There isn't a single video that doesn't educate in the most entertaining way possible
It’s because RUclips is actively censoring and blocking historical content
Thanks! Hoping this one takes off!
~Chris

Some of the best work, art, voice, and music on RUclips. It’s like the history channels golden age
I get wrapped up in the videos I don’t want them to end! Ready for the next one 😂

the best history channel
0:15: The Dalton Gang. Now where have I heard of those clowns before? Oh, yeah! Lucky Luke.
there's also an Eagles song about the Doolin-Dalton gang!
dalton gang's also a great western band out of denver fronted by james dalton. though, it you're a peacemakers or railbenders fan, you probably already know this.
I can't wait for the art work on this one!
You should cover the well renowned bounty hunter Tacitus Kilgore.
I'm not usually a fan of wild west stories but you guys have a talent for making everything interesting! Amazing work
One of the best channels I know. Keep doing what makes y’all happy
Fantastic Video! The plot twist at the end was something I never saw coming :0

that plot twist was amazing
I could watch a whole television season of this
What a twist. Loved it
Absolutely killer art, music and presentation.
This is one of my favourite history channels...never stop publishing videos like this even if they take longer to produce! You guys are awesome
Best narration and art on RUclips
As always, stupendous artwork that completely stands out from other creators. Keep it up!
i’m very excited for this one 1 o’clock needs to get here sooner
Thank you. Great video. It's amazing this whole channel is operated by two brothers.
I love the more modern topics that you can mix real photos of subjects and Joes art
Frank Canton was in fact a an outlaw before he moved and became a sheriff. Wild West Extravaganza has a comprehensive, three hour long episode dedicated to him
You should watch the video you’re commenting on first…that’s a key moment
I swear ive checked 7 times past week just to look for the new episode. I love these vids and artwork even more
Forever supportive of “written and illustrated by humans”
Wow......dude , this is so cool, esp with the voiceover,.....plz do more of these.
This episode was amazing. I love your guys work but this was my favorite yet. I felt immersed in this story. I could watch a whole season of this wild west topic. Beautiful art as always and great writing once again! I show your videos to people to get them interested in history because your videos are so entertaining. Great work guys. Truly amazing.

Thanks so much! This was very fun to put together; a wild story I had to share and a cool atmosphere to capture.

This is my first time seeing one of your videos, and you earned a sub from me easily. It was written so well I was completely hooked inside of a min.
This might be my favorite channel right now omg what a vid
The artwork is phenomenal, a true artist
I already know the art is ab to go extra crazy in this one
Another banger as always.
What a gorgeous intro.
That shot of the two riders under the moonlight.
The mix of real historical imagery and Joe's masterworks are simply gorgeous.
History Dose doesn't miss.
The Joe Horner reviel was crazy. Had to stand up and sit back down
From Viking to Inca then the Wild West .... great stories and variety. Cant wait to see what's next. Cheers lads.

~Chris
Joe and You are legends!

Thanks! Joe also does the sound design!
@@HistoryDose What a talented guy! Love your channel :D
How this channel doesn’t have more subs and views is beyond me but oh well here is a comment for the algorithm
Thank you for always giving genuine content, your brothers’s art goes perfect with your storytelling
This rocked, thanks algorithm
That Joe Horner plot twist was crazy ngl. Great vid
The art and story telling is as brilliant as always
Love the artworks
Sweet art, as always. Love the twist ending.
"Written and illustrated by humans"
Hell yeah.
Crazy right!? I had to scroll to see if someone else said it first haha
Thanks. Check out the "How the Art is Made for History Dose" video on the channel to see our research and art process!

You deserve more views. Never knew django was accurate
Why doesn't this channel have millions of subscribers and views already goddamit! real quality content right here
5:12 Bass Reeves is an American legend. 3,000 arrests is crazy.
Also gunned down 20 men in the line of duty. Reeves was someone you didn't want to cross.
Beautiful, this was a real gem
Hot take: Arthur Morgan would have beaten John Marston in a duel
Of course. No doubt about it.
@anuthur9970 Nah that's just facts
you're telling me Arthur Morgan could have drawn faster than The Legendary Rip Van Winkle??! Preposterous.
What about when he had TB
I love my horsey and my horsey loves me
Doolin-Dalton by the Eagles, never knew this was the origin. Great song, great story, great video.
I loved this episode! Please keep making community posts when a new episode drops!
It's been so long. Glad you're back.
This is fucking amazing, the music, the self-made art, all so good! So glad to be a menber of your patroen & proud!
Thanks for the kind words and support!

I was about to watch on my phone but i feel like I'd be missing out on some beautiful audio, so ill put this in my watch later 😊
Wise move!
Can't be a coincidence that I'm halfway through my first playthrough of Red Dead Redemption 2 and you guys drop this...!
Ohhhhhhhh here we gooooooooo!!!!!!
Amazing story.
I absolutely love this channel and the content they post
Another banger delivered! It was worth the wait.
The Wild West is one of the most evocative periods in all of history.
Absolute cinema
Well done. Thank you and really looking forward to more of these.
I love these stories! Really brings my child imagination of the wild west back to life
