- Today we're starting off in Gibsland, LA and retracing Bonnie and Clyde's steps on their final day alive. Come along as we visit the Bonnie and Clyde Ambush site, the gas station where TX Ranger, Frank Hamer made the final call, and then head to Arcadia, LA to see where their bodies were towed, on display, and then embalmed!

Bonnie Elizabeth Parker (October 1, 1910 - May 23, 1934) and Clyde Chestnut Barrow (March 24, 1909 - May 23, 1934) were an American criminal couple who traveled the Central United States with their gang during the Great Depression, known for their bank robberies, although they preferred to rob small stores or rural funeral homes. Their exploits captured the attention of the American press and its readership during what is occasionally referred to as the "public enemy era" between 1931 and 1934. They are believed to have murdered at least nine police officers and four civilians. A photo of Parker posing with a cigar came from an undeveloped roll of film that police found at an abandoned hideout, and the snapshot was published nationwide. Parker did smoke cigarettes, although she never smoked cigars. According to historian Jeff Guinn, the photos found at the hideout resulted in Parker's glamorization and the creation of myths about the gang. The 1967 film Bonnie and Clyde, directed by Arthur Penn and starring Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway in the title roles, revived interest in the criminals and glamorized them with a romantic aura. The 2019 Netflix film The Highwaymen depicted the law's pursuit of Bonnie and Clyde.
At approximately 9:15 am on May 23, the posse were still concealed in the bushes and almost ready to give up when they heard the Ford V8 Barrow was driving approaching at high speed. In their official report, they stated they had persuaded Ivy Methvin to position his truck along the shoulder of the road that morning. They hoped Barrow would stop to speak with him, putting his vehicle close to the posse's position in the bushes. When Barrow fell into the trap, the lawmen opened fire while the vehicle was still moving. Oakley fired first, probably before any order to do so. Barrow was killed instantly by Oakley's head shot, and Hinton reported hearing Parker scream. The officers fired about 130 rounds, emptying their weapons into the car. Many of Bonnie and Clyde's wounds would have been fatal, yet the two had survived several bullet wounds over the years in their confrontations with the law

Why do people always have to smear monuments, I hate that so much.....I know they were murderers,but it's still part of the story, without which the Texas Rangers, for example, might not exist anymore....which many people do today Helps people.....I think to myself.
And I think it's a shame that a historic building is allowed to rot until it collapses and is just a pile that you want to push away.... Greetings from northern Germany.
Agreed! Thanks for checking out my channel and watching 😎
A 'monument' to alleged murderers? Your priorties are in the wrong place unless you're in the defund the police crowd.
Great video, but just to let you know Grimm Life Collective was there at that site in Arcadia 3 years ago.
My girl friends Father lived where their bodies were taken and placed on Display.. He had seen them after being curious
Wow that’s something. Can’t imagine. Thanks for watching!
The original bonnie and clyde movie with fay Warren was the best
That was a good one too!
Fayed Dunaway
Not even close. The highwaymen sticks mostly to fact. The older movie was just glorified bullshit.
I remember, i was about 7 years old, my dad n mom, n me and my brother n sister went to see the original movie, at a drive in, fay dunnaway, wow...
Wow that’s cool. Thanks for sharing your story!
Pumps look 80’s
Could be! Thanks for watching 😎✌️
Those pumps may be old bout not 1934 old
so they killed without due process ....
Not the same road! It would of been a small country road,maybe no pavement yet !
Lol. Watch my entire video. It’s the exact same road and location. It was no paved back then haha
Man they really need to restore that gas station back to original condition with period gas pumps and a replica phone. Needs to be kept in good condition so other generations can enjoy it.
Agreed! Thanks for checking out my video 😎
I imagine it was a standard Bell Telephone booth, with a working telephone.
The gas station has been torn down
Enjoy what. Ppl murked. Thisbwas a crime scene. Your twisted dude
I know right!! I live 2 miles from the gas station!!! Its rundown.😊
Thanks for the video and all the information. However, I've read or heard somewhere that as far as the cafe, Bonnie & Clyde did not eat their last meal there, they got the sandwiches to go and were going to eat them in the car so that might need to be fact checked if anyone knows for sure.
Thanks so much and thx for watching! You are correct they did order their sandwiches and take them to go. I think what I meant in the video was more so the last meals they had were from that cafe. Not actually sitting down and dining there. Thanks for checking out my video 😎🤘
WOW, it must be chilling to stand in the spots where these events happened, Nick. Thank you for all the research, and the tracking of these near final, final, and post final events.
Glad you enjoyed it! It was creepy but really cool to see in person. Thanks for watching as always 😎🤘
Out here in San Antonio, my friend has a bar and right next to the bar is a golf course and apparently Theodore Roosevelt used that open field to train the Rough Riders as they prepared to go into Mexico and hunt down Pancho Villa, there's also a monument on the side of the road
These two were not murdered wrong selection of words Bud these two were cold blooded killers
You driving to the spot where they were killed isn't any weirder than us watching you drive to the spot they were killed. We're all "ambulance chasers" when it comes down to it.
Good way to think about it haha. Thanks for watching!
I don't think they had EMS respond to that scene. oops!
Well could you imagine just how much more effective it would have been if it was still a dirt and gravel road.
That be something! Thanks for watching!
For the movie the highwaymen they covered the road with dirt. I have the movie on my hard drive and watch it all the time.
You forgot to mention the tow truck breaking down in front of a school, and all the kids coming out to see the dead bodies of Bonnie and Clyde
Thanks for adding that info in! And thanks for checking out my channel 😎
Hi Nick. Thanks so much for taking the time to video this for so many who have not had the chance to do so themselves. Kindly let me to help out a bit: "Frank Hamer would have COME back this way"......"Bonnie and Clyde would have COME this way".......they would not HAVE CAME this way...... "HAVE CAME" is borderline cringe worthy I'm just being honest - you could say that they came this way........but not have came. (btw - sad that Dallas didn't find the time to prevent the demolition of the Barrow gas station earlier this year. Pretty super shocking. I'm not one to glorify violence but I am also not one to suggest that we tear down statues or demolish the small fragments of our past just because I do not agree with it. Most people are not yet aware of the true history of nearly everything as it stands anyway, so to suggest such a thing is likely one being quite oblivious to one's own ignorance! See all of 2020-2021 for reference.) Cheers!
Lol thanks and thanks for watching!
Fried balogna sandwich..my favorite as a kid in the 70s with Fritos. Killjoy meal
My mom used to make them all the time LOL. They were great. Thanks for watching 😎✌️
Interesting history and location, a real shame that some decide to deface and damage the marker.
Agreed. Thanks for watching and happy new year!!
I was there several years ago just after a major restoration of the memorial stone. I understand it was defaced again less than two weeks after I was there. So sad people can’t just leave things alone. Leave nothing but footprints; take nothing but memories.
Worst yet. The plaque was stolen a few weeks ago
Why not shoot up and deface the markers? Bonnie and Clyde certainly shot up enough precious lives so it’s only fitting.
@@laurenurban3942 I can't imagine anyone in their right mind condoning or celebrating the actions of Bonnie and Clyde. Yes, their murderous actions and total disregard for the sanctity of life was appalling and horrific. Using this as reason to damage and destroy something that is part of history, as criminal and evil as it is serves little purpose, other than to satisfy a personal grievance. Also I'd imagine the State of Louisiana would have laws that prohibit the discharging of firearms in a public place.
brillianrt film the Highwaymen , i love it !!!
Same I’ve watched it 6x lol! Thanks for watching 😎✌️
@@TravelswithNick i'd love to see all this , but alas i don't think i will , i love the old gangsters like Bonnie and Clyde , Dillenger etc , they were like Robin Hood characters steal from the rich , if only i lived in the States !!! unfortunately i live in the UK ... 😞😞😞😞
My grandma was friends with them growing up in Texas. She was given a pearl handled S&W 32 by Bonnie that I now have. They were evil, but owning a piece of history is still cool
Wow!! That’s really cool! Thanks for sharing that info 🤠
Evil, huh.. Funny that the system you folks worship bankrupted america and created people that wanted to survive. Funny you say they are evil but is ok to own a piece of that evil to make you a somebody.
The site has been picked over by treasure seekers and others when they were killed . The road has been moved a little as well so part of the area has been paved
Thanks for the insight Chris! Thanks for watching 😎✌️
I visited the site some years ago. It was cold drizzly rain. Some ferrel dogs living behind in the woods who would not let me near them. They made their choice. Killing police is not a healthy choice now and less so then. Frank Hammer is burried in Austin TX along side his son who died as a Marine in WW II, Iwo Jima. Sad.
Thanks for sharing all of this and for watching ✌️
Which side of the road did the car end up at? This is so confusing. The old footage contradicts the spot of the angle. Did the car end up on same side where the lawmen were?
Seems so
I believe it was the same side as the lawmen but not 100% sure. Thanks for checking out my channel!
I think the law enforcement was on both sides. I've often thought it was a miracle that officers weren't killed by friendly fire. Frank Hamer was the conductor and situated things well. They over did the fire power. Bonnie and Clyde were probably dead in the first 30 seconds.
I believe it was on the same side...the car just got turned around after being riddled by bullets
From the photo taken when the bodies were still in the vehicle it appears that it ended up in the ditch 50 yards after the ambush spot on the opposite side of the road as the markers are, if this video has the direction of travel correct.
@@kens.4198 that can't be true. The markers are on the same side in which they were traveling from so that would mean the car got turned around going back the way it was coming from.
Grim life collective went to where they were embalmed they did everything with Bonnie and Clyde also
Yea I noticed that after I made the video 😆 thanks for watching!
The drive from the sandwich place to their end is very intense! I’m so glad you drove it so we can see
Thanks Linda! Glad you enjoyed the video 😎🤘
No only were movies and plays made to honor the two killers but Jay Z and Beyonce wrote love songs about them as if they were some kind of heroes. Not surprising considering the culture they grew up in and currently live in. There are still pathetic people who worship the two killers and their evil lifestyle.
Thanks for checking out my channel and the video!
I agree with you!
Arcadia is so vacant it looks like a movie set!
It does! Thanks for watching!
1968 version was better
They should restore that gas station since it's an historic sight instead of letting it rot away
I agree! Thanks for watching 😎✌️
There is film how the road looked back in 1934. The road was gravel and trees went right up to the road. There was no shoulder at all.
IK! Crazy isn’t it?? I wish I would’ve added that photo in the video lol
If you're commenting on the movie watch the original in 1967 with Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway that's the only one in the best one anything after that is crap because there's also computer-generated this stuff was all real acting back then what's the original 110 or 15 times like I have then you'll find out something better it was actually more closer to the time than anything that they could remake
That’s a great movie as well! Thanks for watching
Yes that's the one I watched with Warren Beatty as Clyde and Faye Dunaway as Bonnie and yes totally real acting!
I was only 6 years old when this movie came out but I remember my grandparents talking about it to
Nick it isn't funny the way their bodies were treated you laughing is not funny just so you know
They were set up by a family friend. They had arranged to visit that day. The friend pretended to have a flat tire on their route. When they pulled over to hel, they were shot up
Correct! Thanks for watching and checking out my channel 😎✌️
And who is this family friend you speak of?
@Steve_from_318 ivy methvin. Hes the father of a man who rode with Bonnie and clyde
@@Just_Peachy8777 correct...but wouldn't exactly call them family... Ivy's son Henry was just someone who joined them after Clyde helped free some people from prison and he (Henry) just happened to be one of the lucky ones to be freed.
It was Methvin's father who was used as a decoy on the the side of the road, his truck jacked up and the front right tire removed to look like it had a flat. Apparently, he was even tied to a tree. Super illegal.
I wish they hadn't shot up the lawmen plaque mainly for Frank Hammer and Manny Gualt. It is very distasteful to disrespect 2 legendary Texas Rangers.
Same I wish they didn’t either. Thanks for watching!
Back in these days law enforcement did things the right way I bet
Thanks for checking out my channel 😎✌️
They weren't murdered. The were shot to death because you could not take them alive.
You might be the 100th person who’s said that lol
Frank Hammer did not fire the first 2 shots.
But it makes Costner the bad ass..hate fake history
Yea I found that out after making this video. Thanks for adding that and watching!
" People are more interesting when they die." Don Henley.
Sad but true! Thanks for watching!
There's a video that was reenacted a few days after the ambush. The actual road was not as wide as now.
Correct! In the movie I talk about they filmed there but they brought in a lot of fake trees to make the road look smaller and more grown in. Thx for watching 😎✌️
No mention of the classic film with Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway. That film is a major reason that Bonnie and Clyde are remembered. It was a huge hit back in the 60s.
Good point haha
Just what I going to say, but not much of a response from TravelwithNick
I wouldn’t say the police were brave thay ambushed bonnie and Clyde
What's interesting to note is when they filmed the death scene in the movie "The Highwaymen" (Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson), they filmed it at the exact location that the real ambush happened (like you show in this video). They had to bring in tons of dirt to pave the now-asphalted highway, along with fake trees and bushes to bring the woods and highway back to the way it looked in the 1930s. That must have been one heck of an expense.
Yes! Thats probably part of the reason why I love that movie the fact that they shot it at the exact location is amazing. Thanks for the great comment!
@@TravelswithNick Yeah, I guess you do explain that in the video (Duh!). I had to go back and watch it again. Great video!!
I have some major issues with this story / event.
I'm a retired peace officer and absolutely appalled over how this was handled.
According to the U.S. Constitution, aka "Law of the land" this ambush was illegal as hell!
It's pretty much common knowledge that Bonnie & Clyde were guilty of multiple crimes HOWEVER... according to the letter of the law, to this day, they remain innocent as they were never proven guilty in a court of law!
Nobody ever attempted to serve a warrant. In fact I doubt any were actually issued.
Texas Rangers had no jurisdiction out of state!
Also according to the law, most if not all involved in the ambush should have been charged with conspiracy and murder. None were.
Yet most celebrate these "brave heroes."
There were other options to serve justice. This wasn't even a good last resort.
Some other details most overlook. Most of the weapons seized in the ambush were stolen. Technically still property of the "previous owner(s)" yet law enforcement officers kept them as souvenirs.
Bonnie & Clyde's car, wasn't actually their car as it too was stolen. The registered owner still owned it!
It was only after a major legal battle with major expenses that it was returned.
Zero compensation for damage, legal expenses to recover it or the profits made from it until it's return.
Other "souvenirs" actually owned by Bonnie & Clyde were kept rather than offered to surviving family members.
All of these things are contrary to the oath I swore (and every other LEO) swears to.
The difference is that I meant what I said.
It's no mystery to me why most people hate "cops". And rightfully so. The bad ones brought that down on all of us.
We The People are also to blame for our current state of affairs for allowing events like this to go unchecked.
Thanks for the insight Ben and great comment! Thanks for checking out my channel!
The same with Lee Harvey Oswald. He was never tried in court (for obvious reasons), but to this day, most articles refer him as JFK's assassin, not 'alledged' assassin.
@@kennethcurtis1856 No way was Oswald responsible for JFK's death.
I was already convinced of that many decades ago but by accident I was stopped at a traffic light and noticed the street sign. Directly in front of me & to my right was the Texas School Book Depository!
Of course I had to find a place to park.
The street is marked with an "X" each spot where JFK was hit.
Standing on each X, I looked back to where the shots allegedly came from... they didn't line up. However... the building across Houston St did!
I never believed Oswald was the shooter, but was still astonished over this unmistakable revelation.
I'm not sure about the "grassy knoll" but if you look in the storm drain below the sidewalk, there is a rather large room... making the perfect spot to fire the fatal shot without being detected.
I don't know where the storm drain goes but it appears large enough for someone to calmly walk in/out.
Regardless of all the theories, only one person had the power to cover it up. "Coincidence " that same person had the greatest motive & most to gain. Another "coincidence" was his familiarity of Dallas and likely allies there.
Oh and it was merely an accident that he had a copy of his "oath of office" in his pocket... just at the perfect time too.
But... nothing to see here folks.
Thanks for that a paragraph that you just wrote I am stunned to read that coming from a retired officer now that I read that it makes a lot of sense since I didn't know the exact details even though I'm 67 but yes there was a lot wrong with that so anyway I commend you for your paragraph there
All of this is true but the cops did exactly as cops do today. In other words they dished out as much on the spot justice as the public and the courts would let them get away with. They would be doing pretty much the same thing today if they could but thankfully now we hold them more accountable.
Thanks for visiting my childhood town. Glad to see the museum is still up and running. As a kid, I had no idea (or just memory) of visiting the site and seeing the stone, but we've been to the museum's live reenactment a few times. :) Nice to finally learn and have the capacity to understand the history.😄
Thank you very much! It was really cool to see in person! Thanks for watching 😎🤘
They were not murded it was judical killing.
Murder is illegal killing ... was the killing legally conducted? Wanted: Dead or Alive?
My father in laws uncle told me about going to view the bodies. He always complained that they were charging 50 cents to view them. Must have been a lot of money in those days. He lived south of Shreveport when it all went down. He was 34 at the time.
That’s crazy!! I guess that was a thing they did back then. Thanks for sharing that interesting story ✌️
People are morbid
What about the 68 movie Warren beatty Faye donaway
That’s a good movie!
@@TravelswithNickMovie classic part of Hollywood Royalty like Wizard Of Z Casablanca The Godfather
I have that movie. I still watch from time to time, been to they're gravesite and where they was killed! I remember mom and dad took us to watch that movie when it came out
Don't u think this is murder!
yes it is. Its basically the same as be judge ,jury and executioner....heck they could have sold the car and they would have killed someone else....talking about only idiots work for the state ,this crap always applies.
Thanks for your little documentary did,,
I was wondering, as I was looking at you at the death location where the Rangers were hiding behind the bushes and do you think anybody had metal detect that area to see if they can find cartridges spent from shooting at Bonnie and Clyde?
I have no idea but I’m sure someone has in the past. Thanks for watching 😎
They murdered 13 people needlessly, prior to meeting their end. This does not include Clyde’s first murder which occurred while he was in prison.
Thank you for mentioning the victims of these two maniacs. They seem to get forgotten so that the two terroristic murderers can be glorified.
No... they were merely accused of murdering multiple victims. According to our highest law, they remain innocent until proven guilty.
Having said that, I too highly suspect they were guilty but... I have to stand with the written law.
@@bendover4154 …..This is irrelevant and inconsequential…and is a case in point under common law, also written law, which most of our law is based. The other is statutory law to which you wrongly refer. This was clearly the “exception to the rule” and this met the exception. Otherwise you give them a sword and a shield with “due process” and “innocent until proven guilty” which they refused to recognize. They were judged and sentenced by the long arm of the law which is often, but rarely necessary. Why? They could not be taken alive and refused to allow others to apprehend them so they could face the wheels of justice. There were eyewitnesses to most of their crimes which included murder, robbery, armed robbery, kidnapping, grand theft auto, vandalism, defrauding innkeepers, assault, escape, etc. etc. Accordingly forensics, at that time, named their weapons, tire tracks and yes fingerprints as exhibits of evidence. Their death was their judgment due to the way they lived-by the sword. It was of their making and their choosing. Do not forget Clyde WAS a convicted felon, already judged and under a sentence for which he escaped. Bonnie had aided and abetted him and his unlawful flight against justice which put her in another category altogether…harboring fugitives of justice etc. If you dispute the deaths of their victims, and any of their voluminous amount of crimes, that is wrong on so many levels. Hollywood promotes such garbage by glamorizing blood-thirsty, heartless animals. This is ignorant and vilely repugnant.
@@MarkCartret Irrelevant? Inconsequential?
The U.S. Constitution / Bill of Rights IS the supreme law of the land thus it supercedes "Common Law" and/or any other imaginary laws you care to present.
Mark Carteret:Look what happened to Clyde in prison though.Horrible.
The only problem with the death of Bonnie and Clyde is that it didn’t happen a lot sooner.
Thanks for watching!
They were not that bad of ppls
The Barrows wanted to bury Bonnie next to Clyde, but Mrs. Parker said, No Clyde had her when they were on the run, he’s not having her next to him for eternity!
Exactly. Thanks for sharing that!
Filling station is gone! So Sad!
I heard that's a shame. Glad I got to see it when it was there. Thanks for watching!
The friend who set them up did not want to. The detectives were threatening to lock up his son. Even though Bonnie and Clyde gave him alot of $ he set them up to spare his own son who was involved with the 2 outlaws
Thank goodness that friend gave them up. Lord only knows how many more people those two maniacs would have robbed and murdered.
Ivy
Those pumps weren't there in 33, maybe from the 60s. My parents are from the South. In my little kid days, I saw gas pumps from that era. Funny looking, but they worked. Gasoline back then was less than 25 cents a gallon.
No one stood out in the road and said "HALT!".....it was an outright ambush.....the majority of the people killed by the Barrow gang were law enforcement officers and these lawmen were not taking any chances as evident by the arsenal of weapons found in the vehicle of Barrow and Parker. In that time and age of the public enemies extra judicial measures were necessary to deal with cold blooded killers....a lesson learned by the deaths of numerous law enforcement officers who followed established protocols and procedures and paid the ultimate sacrifice. It's easy to sit back and quote laws and The Constitution in the comfort of your homes and offices but not so easy when you are faced with the reality of the life or death situation right in front of you. I am also a retired law enforcement officer and I think those lawmen did a good job.
Thanks for watching!!
Hamer didn't come out of the blind and show himself like in the Highwaymen movie. Once Bonnie and Clyde stopped, the local Sheriff got nervous and jumped up and shot twice, killing Clyde, the other shooters then started to riddle the car with bullets.
Thanks for the info!
@@TravelswithNick I've had a recent obsession with the whole Bonnie and Clyde saga. I've watched and read everything I could about them, I find the small details of their story fascinating. As an example, I never knew Bonnie was so petite, she was under 5' tall, weighed around 80 pounds, and only had a size 3.5 shoe.
Wow, so you were actually there huh. So why don't you Enlighten Us on other details seeing how you're so knowledgeable and right there at the exact moment Everyone started Shooting
@@cliffray1683 Do some research my friend, it's all out there if you look for it. Of course there are varying accounts of the incident, but the preponderance seems to be as I noted.
@@jbrewster6175 if you knew who I was that was the most stupid comment that you could have made. But you don't but family histories a lot more correct than your stupidity
It was a gravel road then road has been adjusted
Thanks for checking out my video!
Boots took to the location, and Pin pointed it to us.
His Daddy was a Dallas County Deputy Sheriff whose name appeared on the marker.
He owns the museum in town.
I, having retired law enforcement of 44 years, did have several connections to his daddy and boots alike.
I was told his has passed away.
I still have a few things Boots gave me.
I was just there about 2 weeks ago to the markers .
I've been there a few times.
Being from Dallas County and having worked in a place officers capacity, I know a ton of people dealing with B and C and the JFK Murder alike.
My grandfather owed a gas station just down the road from the Barrow family.
Clyde stopped by regularly for gas or auto repairs, and grandma did not like him and Bonnie either one.
Grandfather said I had been knowing his family and him for years.
He doesn't pose any threat to us.
We ain't a bank, cops, financial house. Of prison guards
We're like family. He pays cold, hard cash because he supports local businessmen.
How he comes about getting it is between him and God.
He said now that if we refused him service, he might take it badly, and who knows what might happen or not.
Chief Jones
Retired
Wow thanks so much for sharing all this cool info and this story. I appreciate it and appreciate you watching 👏✌️
@@TravelswithNick your most welcome
When I think of the deep south of USA, I think of fried chicken, bootleg bourbon, religion and gospel music,
friendlier people who have many cousins and relatives, eccentric folks and funny names like Elroy.
Also love of sports and the military.
Many unemployed and underemployed. Folk ways.
Good way to sum up the south haha
Excellent video, thanks
Thank you very much for checking out my channel! Glad you enjoyed 😎✌️
They didn’t say anything to them . They just started shooting and killed Clyde instantly. Car started rolling and they just keep shooting them .
Absolutely right.
Clyde was dead after the first shot, they could have stopped firing and taken Bonnie alive, but instead just kept shooting till their guns were empty, Bonnie and Clyde were outlaws but the posse were no heroes.
@@ricmcmix5203You have no idea what you're talking about.
They kept shooting because they didn't want to take chances. They knew how dangerous those people were.
I WAS HERE I WAS PUTTING IN GAS LINES UNDER THE ROAD THAT EXACT PLACE WHERE BONNIE AND CLYDE DIED
Thanks for watching!
@@TravelswithNick THANK FOR THE FILMS II ENJOYED THEM
😎Dam I'm from Louisiana still live here didn know it was way back in 1934 Wow didn know I thought like 1959 are something. An how they knew to be there waitn you came to a Y in the road an turns right?
Thanks for checking out my video 😎✌️
That Y in the road is way before the ambush site
It's a damn shame that people have to vandalize everything these days, they have no respect for anyone or anything! If I owned the old gas station I'd have to restore it instead of letting it rot to the ground! I've been studying history all my life and think it should be preserved no matter how good or bad it was as long as it's true.
It is a shame. But that’s just how people are sometimes. Thanks for the comment and for watching!
I would like to see someone open up a museum for Pretty boy Floyd in his birth place of Adiarsville Ga.
I’d visit that for sure. Thx for watching!
murdered? they were criminals.
If you could pin point the actual spot where Clyde stopped and most of the shooting took place, before the car rolled down the hill a bit after they were both killed, it might be possible, using a metal detector, to find a bullet or two, maybe get really lucky and find an empty shell where they were shooting from, one or two may have been missed.
Man now I wish I had a metal detector that day! Haha. Thanks for watching!
That's a fascinating thought. But I imagine that section of road has been paved and repaved many times and so much soil moved around. It would be a miracle to find a slug now, but who knows.
@@richardblayneamerican8149 they still finding bullets from the Civil War and revolutionary War all over the battle fields.
@@jakedode Yes, you're quite right. Of course a number of those battlefields (that aren't under a parking lot) are federally protected and have little changed since the 1860's.
@@jakedode There were many more rounds fired in those battles.
That Car still ran after they killed them. It was in Dunstons Steakhouse, in Dallas, when I was a Kid. Interstate Batteries does a big cross country Antique Car Race every year. I was on it in 1993 but, the year, or two, before I did it, one Team ran The Bonny and Clyde Death Car in its original condition complete with all the Bloodstains and Bullet Holes 😳
Wow crazy. Thanks for sharing that info!
Clyde loved his 30-06 Browning Automatic Rifle our BAR...Which was also the weapon that took them both out...
Thanks for watching!
Love your Kevin Cosner impression at the gas station
Lol thanks!! I was hoping someone would find that funny 😄
You should go to the site where the officers stood and use a metal detector to look for empty casings
Maybe the next time around I’ll have to look into that ✌️
Didnt anyone ever go across the road and look for gun casings??
So funny talking about the gas pumps lol because in the 30s they were different.
I’m not sure lol. I heard another comment today too regarding the gas pumps haha I thought they were so cool! Thanks for watching 😎🤘
Why are the markers that you say is the exact (SPOT) on one side of the road and you are on the other side and down some 150- 300 feet from the markers saying this is ware they stopped??
The markers are not at the exact spot. Watch the Highway Men movie I talk in the video. They filmed on site and re-enacted the whole thing
Excellent job on this project my friend. I would love to visit the site someday myself. I bet it was kinda spooky to be there and know what happened so many years ago. Excellent.
Thanks so much for the nice comment! It’s definitely out there but worth the trip if you’re into this stuff. A place I’ll never forget. Thanks again 😎✌️
Live by the sword, die by the sword
Yup! Thanks for watching 😎✌️
10:45 So, I've tried to figure out WHERE the cops were when they opened fire. They were across the street from the car, correct?
They had to shoot over the roadway, they weren't on the same side of the road as Clyde's car?
So the road use to be a lot smaller than it is now. So I was a little off when I made this video. I believe they were on the same side that the car went to after they were shot. The cops did shoot from in the woods though. They did not come out like Kevin Costner did in the movie. Besides that everything else pretty much matches up. Thanks for watching!
@@TravelswithNick Yes, I realize the road was narrower, but you're saying that after they opened fire, the car rolled ACROSS the road TO the side that they were shooting from?
I thought it just rolled forward a little.
So what I read on a history site said that they went to that restaurant and had breakfast and took two sandwiches to go for lunch. Clyde got a BLT and Bonnie got a fried bologna and apparently they were sitting in the car. She took one bite of the sandwich and that’s when they got the hail of bullets Shot into the car and it was 167 bullets
Whatever anyone thinks of them, they are legendary figures, not only in the US, but all over the world. Another aspect is anyone who went down the road they did these days would only be on the run for a few days or a couple of weeks at most due to the technology available to law enforcement. Their like will never be seen again.
Good video mate 👍.
Well said! That’s how I feel as well. Thanks for the great comment and for watching 👏😎✌️
I think some time you have to fight fire with fire. Maybe it was a unlawful amdush, but I feel if it wasn't done the way it was done, more would have died.
Well said! Thanks for checking out my channel 😎✌️
Back in 1934,the road was a lot more narrow and and the high ground that the Texas Rangers were hiding was closser to the actual road... The ditch that this guy is standing in wasnt there at the time,the high ground is gone in order to widen the road and pave it... The car drifed futher and stoped beside the bank next to the road...
Thanks for your insight! And thanks for checking out my channel 😎✌️
I don't think it was the FBI
FBI? No.
@@SECRETARIATguy224
Correct... Not FBI,They were Texas Rangers... 👍😎
@@ellissmithjr6599 No. Hamer and Galt used to be, then Galt returned to the Rangers after. None of the others were ever Texas Rangers.
90 years ago! Same year that Pretty Boy Floyd, Dillinger+ Baby Face Nelson got shot too. And D-Day was only 10 years later, honored yesterday, 6/6/24.
Crazy isn’t it? Thanks for your comment ✌️
That's so fuckin ghetto how people graffitied all over the historical monument
OMG I am seeing this on May 23 2024
Great show
I read, "my life with Bonnie and Clyde, by Blanch Barrow. . Warren Beattys movie was all lies.
I want to read that book! Thanks for watching!!
@@TravelswithNick I've been intrigued all of my life. This was happening when my parents were young, and before they were a couple, and had me. I had some newspaper clippings my MIL gave to me. It was a very big deal. Like all of the other gangsters then.
They deserved triple the amount of wounds they got
clyde bought him a house and he stab him in the back
Pretty much. Thx for watching!
👩💻I understand that the producers looked all over for the same road and foliage. But they decided on the same spot because the undulating curve of the road could not be matched. Just watched the movie the other day, and it's still as good as the first time. Texas Rangers, men hunters, putting them on the spot. It's good to see the lawmen side of the story.
Thanks for sharing all of this info! I love this movie ✌️
There’s a video on RUclips from the movie of the scene. Search highwayman Bonnie and Clyde
It’s neat they filmed right there on site. Thanks!
The Highwayman on Netflix was a great movie
I love that movie!
The gas pumps came on the scene many years after the Bonnie and Clyde incident.
Thanks for watching!
I stopped watching when you said they were murdered. Bonnie and Clyde were NOT murdered. This brings any and all you say into question because you claim a crime was committed where there was no crime committed.
Facts matter.
You’re funny
@@TravelswithNick Why, because you don't know or understand what the most violent crime one person can commit upon another?
Allow me: mur·der
/ˈmərdər/
noun
the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another.
"the stabbing murder of an off-Broadway producer"
Similar:

uxoricide
regicide
slaying
verb
kill (someone) unlawfully and with premeditation.
There. Now you know the definition of the word you used and didn't know the meaning of.
Pretty sure if the same thing happened today some or all of that posse would be charged with murder.
Hey nick, I do some videos similar to yours, well I did- I can tell you prefer those people didn't show on those bikes, gives you more freedom to film etc lol..Also, my aunt lived in Wisner La. Great video man!
Right on! Yea just my luck the pulled up as soon as I hit record LOL. Thanks 😎✌️
I went to this place.
Hamer didn't walk out before the shooting began. Manny Gault shot first, hitting Clyde in the head killing him instantly. Clyde's shoeless foot slipped off the clutch, which was still in 1st gear. The car lunged forward which led the posse to believe they were getting away. That's when they all started shooting. The car ended up quite a few yards down the road and came to a stop off to the left in a shallow ditch. Bonnie was still breathing when Ted Hinton opened the passenger side door. She died within moments.
Yes you’re correct. I learned afterward I had a few facts wrong when I made this video. Thanks for your input and watching! I have plenty more Bonnie and Clyde videos coming out in 2024!
The pumps from the Bonnie and Clyde era would have been even older
Thanks for the info!
Estou assistindo no dia 23.05.2024, justamente quando completa 90 anos em que foram mortos !
Didn’t realize until your post thanks for sharing that info!
