@Dave Garcia Houston had nothing tactical, he was a cowardly man who met the Mexican army when the Mexicans had not yet divided into 3 regiments. Houston's own men considered him a coward, it was until they captured the Mexican messenger and it was there that they realized q the mexican army had been divided into 3, it was that houston found out that each mexican regiment was 453 soldiers, only in this way did it have value to confront the mexican, because houston did not defeat the entire mexican army only a small regiment. you can claim the independence of some lands that are not yours, that is called "stealing" the history of the united states has always been stealing "in the name of freedom" santa ana was a traitorous dog they got texas in exchange for the life of Santa Ana and California, and the other territories were lost because Mexico had no money to buy arms and ammunition, and this was known by the US government, while always fighting with countries or armies that are at a disadvantage. If Mexico had had money for weapons in that war, what today has been used in that war, Mexico would have won. Americans are cowards due to genetics. Only armed people believe they are brave. English, Scottish or Irish, Garcia hahahahaha Latin surname hahahaha you although you were born in the USA you will never be descendants of European white,GARCIA LOL LOL
@@boomerboi7532 Santa Ana had every right to modify the constitution because he was the president of Mexico, a stranger like the rats who stole Texas did not have constitutional rights to comment on the political life of Mexico, they pleaded with the government of Mexico to give them permission to inhabit those lands, and Mexico gave them permission, it is as if Latinos who live in united states say that they want reindependence of the USA only because they do not like trump hahahaha
This was payback for the Goliad massacre and the Alamo, Santa Anna's method of fear through brutality backfired on him and only enraged us and made us more willing to be free from his tyranny.
Orangy Pteco We had every right, as they WANTED us to come in and settle that area. And we likely would have remained Mexican had Santa Anna not plunged Mexico into a military dictatorship. Texas wasn’t the only part of Mexico to rebel. When Santa Anna started his barbarism, any part of Mexico had the natural right to leave.
@@ReformedSooner24 I see differently. Instead of leaving they could've joined the general revolt againt Sant Anna. They just left because they were fillibusters who instead of serving in the name of "Freedom" they were nothing but pawn of Polk and his warhawk democrats to invade Mexico 10 years later.
An incredible scene in a very underrated movie. Once it turns into a rout, it takes on a life of its own and you can see the helplessness in Sam Houston's face as he sees what's happening. No stopping it at that point. Remember the Alamo.
Love this scene. The music gives me goosebumps, especially the music change at 2:35 as soldiers desperately try to escape to the river but are unable, showcasing the battle to be the Waterloo Houston Spoke of. I love the "Santa Anna's army was defeated in eighteen minutes." just to quickly hammer home how one sided the battle was.
Idk why but seeing that scene makes me think was it necessary to kill all of them while they were trying to surrender. Yes people say they deserve it but in all honesty it was Santa Anna’s fault. Men in both sides had families. But the difference is that In Mexico they drafted them. While In the other side they wanted to fight for “freedom”. Seeing the Tejanos reaction to that massacre really brings out the human side. Just seeing men dying in the water, running for their lifes. It must really be painful. In war you see hatred towards the other side. But in this battle the only one with hatred was probably Santa Anna.
At 2:16 you can hear some say "For Goliad". He is referring to the Goliad Massacre where James Fannin and about 400 Texians Prisoners of War were massacred under orders from General and President Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana 3 weeks after the Battle of the Alamo. The Fall of the Alamo and the Goliad Massacre are reasons the Texians wanted to fight the Mexican Army so badly and why so many Mexicans (650) soldiers were killed at the Battle of San Jacinto.
I can't remember How many Texans were injured/killed? I keep thinking it was below the 20s but I'm not sure of the exact number. I think its impressive that they were fired up, so much anger, that the battle didn't last even 20 minutes.
@@gabrielcruz7820 all those Tejanos fought for slaves? The men who fought for Yucatan, Republic of the Rio grande, and a few other states independence and lost fought for slaves?
I’m a proud Louisianian through and through but I’ve lived in Texas for almost 3 years and I could tell you Texans are some of the craziest proudest people I’ve ever encountered.
My ancestor, James greenwood, fought at this battle. He was between 14-17 years old at the time and he would go on to later serve in the civil war in his late 30’s or early 40’s. He was in the Texian Calvary & later in the Union army Calvary. He would live into his 90’s which was rare for that time.

Brave soldiers, every one of them! The soldiers with the playing cards on their hats are Tejanos. Something a lot of Texans forget, is that a Tejano is a Spanish-Mexican that moved to Texas to fight for Texas independence. Thousands of Tejanos fought and died for Texas but their history is being forgotten. With out the help of the Tejanos who called Texas their new home, we wouldn't have near the number of soldiers to fight off the Mexican Army.
You're right on all points, except the moving part. The Tejanos already had been living in Texas. It was the American settlers that moved in. The Tejanos just decided they had better chances joining the Republic of Texas compared the political instability of Mexico. During the Texas Revolution, the Tejanos were a vital asset to help the Republic of Texas to be born.
I am a Texan who was born here and lived here my entire life. There were brave men from many parts of the country and the brave Tejanos who fought and died to keep us free...believe me, they will NEVER be forgotten! REMEMBER THE ALAMO!!!

I like how this movie gave an account of the Tejano people’s contribution to Texan Independence.

They were shot down and killed for siding with the Texans and their spilled blood helped hold everything we treasure together alongside their Anglo counterparts. It’s a shame these days Texans have forgotten about the bond between Tejanos and Texans and discriminate against anyone speaking the Spanish language despite fighting and dying together so long ago.
I'm not going to lie David Crockett was like my favorite character he showed an attitude of more than life yes what he did in the war of 1812 and although he was an Indian fighter but that was his past he still fought for the Alamo so for that I do respect him

I think you’ve more got to worry about the politically correct SJW types interpreting this as a war of white imperialism or some absolutely retarded crap like that.
Yes. Here in Texas we honor Juan Seguin and his men. There’s a town named for him and a wonderful bronze statue of him on horseback carrying his sword.
Visit Galveston! when it rains, doesnt matter how much, coffins will just come out of the ground. There are still houses from the 1900 storm. And they are GORGEOUS! I think Galveston is supposed to be the most haunted place in the US.
The battle was 18 minutes, but the slaughter took hours. Ran em into the river and lake, then just lined the banks and turned the water red with concentrated fire.
The scene at 3:57 is very similar to a painting called "Surrender of Santa Anna" by William Henry Huddle that is displayed at the Texas State Capital in Austin Texas.
All of the above are correct, just adding my personal opinion. I've always perceived that look on his face to be the moment humanity cuts through the rage and he's sees war in it's true brutality.
@Isaac Mounce I read somewhere that they knew each other. That's why Rusk wanted to save his life, he almost got shot while trying to stop the Texans from shooting him. And Castrillon is the only Mexican buried at San Jacinto.
@@ReformedSooner24 Underrated. People don't realize just how diverse the Alamo defenders were. Majority were American Lots were native-born Texans There were dozens of Europeans Couple of Native Americans 2 black people And obviously the Mexican Tejanos
Texas was originally owned by Spain in 1519, France in 1685, Mexico in 1821, Republic of Texas-1836 (Texas was its own country), CSA 1861 and finally USA 1845. So no. Mexico was not the original country to own Texas. Spain was.
Hello. Indeed, Texas was part of Spain during the viceroyalty. After the independence of Mexico, the territories of Texas, New Mexico and California became part of Mexico.
Glad they showed how much of a coward Santa Anna was rather run than fight when he's losing also the card thing is true tejano used cards in their hats to show they were with the rebels during the battle
Glory to the Mexican heroes of the Alamo, the heroic soldiers who defended the homeland, and the integrity of the Mexican territory. They killed those cowardly pirates, who were appropriating a Mexican province. US-AMERICANS REMEMBER EL CARRIZAL ruclips.net/video/l34n1_BlgYI/видео.html
The only reason that Travis stayed in the Alamo, was because he was expecting support from Goliad and Sam Houston. It never came. Fanning at Goliad thought it was a lost cause, and refused to go to their aid, and later surrendered his 500 man garrison after the Alamo fell, of which they were all executed. Houston then led Santa Anna's army on a zig zagging pursuit across Texas out pacing the Mexican Army which was encumbered by their numbers and supplies, so much so, that they got desperate, and split their forces. After Goliad, they sent half their army home, and split into 2 columns trying to corner Houston. So by the time of the Battle of San Jacinto, they faced 1/4 of the Army that assaulted the Alamo. Houston also had all the bridges burned along the river, keeping the Mexican Army from retreating and reinforcing the other column. Little note too, Santa Ana was indisposed when the battle started, by a woman in his tent, and not attending to his Men. She is affectionately known as "The Yellow Rose of Texas*.
Santa Anna’s greatest weakness was arrogance, and because of it, he let so many of his troops die. No doubt, there were many good Mexican folk in his army, but because of his leadership and actions, they would end up paying the price. It’s sad, but that’s how war is: You shoot a man in a hole, stab a man in his bed, etc., you’re done for if they get their hands on you. Show no mercy, and you shall receive none. However, the Texas Army showed that they were at least a little bit better by actually taking prisoners afterwards.
They only did that because General Houston wasn't interested in creating a bloodbath. Had he not reigned them in, it would have been worse. That part where General Castrillon was butchered? In real life, one of the commanders ORDERED the men not to kill him, but they ignored him (even as he desperately tried to save him) and shot the poor guy.
@@pyromania1018 Exactly why I’m not condoning all their actions. I’m just saying that it’s human nature to want revenge after events like Goliad and the Alamo and Santa Anna was too full of himself to fully realize the danger of that. There’s a time in all our lives where we want it. In fact, I’m giving props to Houston for actually not wanting to stoop to his enemy’s level.
I absolutely love this scene. When I first watched this movie i felt enraged by what the mexicans did to the defender of the alamo. But when this scene was shown, it gave me a sense of satisfaction, because God's will was done.
As a gun toting Texan this fills me with pride. We are the state of warriors and gunfighters. Chris Kyle, Audie Murphy, and many others have showed the world what a Texan can do with a gun.
Respect to the Mexican soldiers who stood their ground fighting back. Unlike depicted here, the Texan artillery was firing canister shot into the camp causing many casualties and made organizing the troops impossible.
I choose respect for the Texians look at the first video the mexicans were fukin' so brave but now they got caught off guard and wanna beg for mercy....they shoulda known texas isnt a place to be fucked with.....
@@username8696 Most of the soldados were very young, late teenage years having been through long marches, hard fighting at the Alamo, and by this battle most of the troops were exhausted and collapsed into sleep when Texans launched their surprise attack. Being suddenly waken up by canister shot blasting into their camp. I don't think You would do much better in their situation. Had they been rested another day and met the Texans in the open field they would have defeated them.
Ain't war Hell. General Patton said it, " No bastard has ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by killing the other son of a bitch for his country". I feel no remorse or compassion.
Sam Houston would later be Governor of Texas when Texas seceded from the Union. He opposed the secession of the state and it's entry into the Confederacy and was removed from his post as a result, but his son would fight for the confederate army until wounded at Shiloh. Looks like another case of a divided family to me.
At 2:05, where General Castillion dies, Santa Anna after the battle called him a fool and he is the reason why the Mexican Army lost to Sam Houston's army.
Santa anna was innocent a bit but not fully actually.the alamo was his and all he wanted to do was take it back.but I do agree he is a bitch and a tyrant.
My great great grandfather me and my family think he was in this battle he was also in seige of Bexar so my mom says I am a son of Texas Revolution! REMEMBER THE ALAMO REMEMBER GOLIAD REMEMBER SAN JANCITO!!!!

Stood together, heel and toe
To defend the Alamo.

On a horse that was black as the night.

And a rousing rebel yell

"Play deguello!" he roared
"I will show them no quarter
Every one will be put to the sword!"
One hundred and eighty five
Holding back five thousand
Five days, six days, eight days, ten
Travis held and held again
Then he sent for replacements
For his wounded and lame
But the troops that were coming
Never came, never came, never came...
Twice he charged and blew recall
On the fatal third time
Santa Anna breached the wall
And he killed 'em, one and all
Now the bugles are silent
And there's rust on each sword
And the small band of soldiers...
Lie asleep in the arms of the Lord...
In the southern part of Texas
Near the town of San Antone
Like a statue on his pinto rides a cowboy all alone
And he sees the cattle grazing where a century before
Santa Anna's guns were blazing and the cannons used to roar
And his eyes turn sorta misty
And his heart begins to glow
And he takes his hat off slowly...
To the men of Alamo.
To the thirteen days of glory
At the siege of Alamo...

'A la bataglia, Tejanos'
Never forget that a lot of Tejanos fought for Texas!
I hope that hispanophobes will not desecrate the memory of this revolution by mispresenting it as "Americans against Mexicans"!!
We are brothers of freedom. Texas Forever.

I am not a Texan or American, but I am fascinated by this period, and I don't like it when it is misrepesented and misused for tribalist agendas. I admire your attitude.
I think you’ve more got to worry about the politically correct SJW types interpreting this as a war of white imperialism or some absolutely retarded crap like that.
Yes. Here in Texas we honor Juan Seguin and his men. There’s a town named for him and a wonderful bronze statue of him on horseback carrying his sword.
Texicans, Tejanos, Texans - we are all one under The Lone Star.
I have a new favorite subject now. Texas History.
Visit Galveston! when it rains, doesnt matter how much, coffins will just come out of the ground. There are still houses from the 1900 storm. And they are GORGEOUS!
I think Galveston is supposed to be the most haunted place in the US.
that rwby girl Dam I live in Galveston
Who else learned about the Alamo in school
Required in Texas 😄
Meeeeee and I researched more and figured Davy Crockett used a rifle and I like rifles to! So he became my favorite (￣ω￣;)
MidnightXcrazyXcute Lololol fuck you gacha fuck
Yeah I took texas history in 4th and 7th grade since I live in San Antonio
I learned about Goliad first. The Mexicans had it coming a long way.
The Texan Army got their revenge on the Mexican Army
Which they didn't deserve
dat doggo how did they not deserve it? Unfair taxes and laws with a dictatorship? All they want is to be free and they died trying to get it.
@@isaacgonzales5612 maybe y'all should have stayed in u.s instead of coming Mexico since u don't like
dat doggo Americans came into Mexico before all the unfairness and dictatorship of Santa Anna so I don’t know what u mean?
@@isaacgonzales5612 the same thing
They could have go back to America
Remember every minute of it. All 19
All 1,160 seconds lol
The battle was 18 minutes, but the slaughter took hours. Ran em into the river and lake, then just lined the banks and turned the water red with concentrated fire.
The scene at 3:57 is very similar to a painting called "Surrender of Santa Anna" by William Henry Huddle that is displayed at the Texas State Capital in Austin Texas.
Identical
3:51 "I want Texas"
That was a powerful Saying for Texas
A even better one is "Remember The Alamo"
DO YOUR PIRATE
“Indian scouts with squirrel guns
Men with muzzle-loaders
Stood together, heel and toe
To defend the Alamo.”
- Marty Robins
The men came from Texas
And from old Tennessee
And they joined up with Travis
Just to fight for the right to be free
Some moments here are historically inaccurate but I love Texas and its my home since I was born
It's a Hollywood movie kid...but I'd like to hear about the inaccuracies of which you speak of. I will gladly tell you mine.
2:11, so what’s his deal?
Seeing that guy get over killed?
All of the above are correct, just adding my personal opinion. I've always perceived that look on his face to be the moment humanity cuts through the rage and he's sees war in it's true brutality.
@Isaac Mounce I read somewhere that they knew each other. That's why Rusk wanted to save his life, he almost got shot while trying to stop the Texans from shooting him. And Castrillon is the only Mexican buried at San Jacinto.
Love this scene;absolutely a masterpiece
A la batalla Tejanos!
To battle Texans!
Lots don't realize that lots of Mexican Tejanos fought hard also 4 the Texas independence...
@@mrtokeraininpain3770 For real. The Mexican Tejanos, and the Native Americans who fought for the Texans deserve just as much praise
HighburyAFCSoul
Of course they do. They were all Texans in the end after all.
@@ReformedSooner24 Underrated. People don't realize just how diverse the Alamo defenders were.
Majority were American
Lots were native-born Texans
There were dozens of Europeans
Couple of Native Americans
2 black people
And obviously the Mexican Tejanos
Mexicans* 🇲🇽
Texas was originally owned by Spain in 1519, France in 1685, Mexico in 1821, Republic of Texas-1836 (Texas was its own country), CSA 1861 and finally USA 1845. So no. Mexico was not the original country to own Texas. Spain was.
Can’t forget the multiple native groups that were there before. Would be more like the 16 flags over Texas
Hello. Indeed, Texas was part of Spain during the viceroyalty. After the independence of Mexico, the territories of Texas, New Mexico and California became part of Mexico.
Glad they showed how much of a coward Santa Anna was rather run than fight when he's losing also the card thing is true tejano used cards in their hats to show they were with the rebels during the battle
Glory to the Mexican heroes of the Alamo, the heroic soldiers who defended the homeland, and the integrity of the Mexican territory.
They killed those cowardly pirates, who were appropriating a Mexican province.

My grandmas cousin was in this movie as a solider
The only reason that Travis stayed in the Alamo, was because he was expecting support from Goliad and Sam Houston. It never came. Fanning at Goliad thought it was a lost cause, and refused to go to their aid, and later surrendered his 500 man garrison after the Alamo fell, of which they were all executed. Houston then led Santa Anna's army on a zig zagging pursuit across Texas out pacing the Mexican Army which was encumbered by their numbers and supplies, so much so, that they got desperate, and split their forces. After Goliad, they sent half their army home, and split into 2 columns trying to corner Houston. So by the time of the Battle of San Jacinto, they faced 1/4 of the Army that assaulted the Alamo. Houston also had all the bridges burned along the river, keeping the Mexican Army from retreating and reinforcing the other column. Little note too, Santa Ana was indisposed when the battle started, by a woman in his tent, and not attending to his Men. She is affectionately known as "The Yellow Rose of Texas*.
2:03 mans got some skills
This was an awesome movie.
Santa Anna’s greatest weakness was arrogance, and because of it, he let so many of his troops die. No doubt, there were many good Mexican folk in his army, but because of his leadership and actions, they would end up paying the price.
It’s sad, but that’s how war is: You shoot a man in a hole, stab a man in his bed, etc., you’re done for if they get their hands on you.
Show no mercy, and you shall receive none. However, the Texas Army showed that they were at least a little bit better by actually taking prisoners afterwards.
They only did that because General Houston wasn't interested in creating a bloodbath. Had he not reigned them in, it would have been worse. That part where General Castrillon was butchered? In real life, one of the commanders ORDERED the men not to kill him, but they ignored him (even as he desperately tried to save him) and shot the poor guy.
@@pyromania1018 Exactly why I’m not condoning all their actions. I’m just saying that it’s human nature to want revenge after events like Goliad and the Alamo and Santa Anna was too full of himself to fully realize the danger of that. There’s a time in all our lives where we want it. In fact, I’m giving props to Houston for actually not wanting to stoop to his enemy’s level.
@@pyromania1018 Like how Castrillon pled for Crockett to SA.
I absolutely love this scene. When I first watched this movie i felt enraged by what the mexicans did to the defender of the alamo. But when this scene was shown, it gave me a sense of satisfaction, because God's will was done.
2:19 RIP violin/viola/fiddle
As a gun toting Texan this fills me with pride. We are the state of warriors and gunfighters. Chris Kyle, Audie Murphy, and many others have showed the world what a Texan can do with a gun.
I'm proud to call myself a Texan. If I could, I would time travel back to this point in time and help in the fight.
Respect to the Mexican soldiers who stood their ground fighting back. Unlike depicted here, the Texan artillery was firing canister shot into the camp causing many casualties and made organizing the troops impossible.
I choose respect for the Texians look at the first video the mexicans were fukin' so brave but now they got caught off guard and wanna beg for mercy....they shoulda known texas isnt a place to be fucked with.....
@@username8696 Most of the soldados were very young, late teenage years having been through long marches, hard fighting at the Alamo, and by this battle most of the troops were exhausted and collapsed into sleep when Texans launched their surprise attack. Being suddenly waken up by canister shot blasting into their camp. I don't think You would do much better in their situation. Had they been rested another day and met the Texans in the open field they would have defeated them.
@@rafidi1692 You have a point
Fortunately, the Texians prevailed!
This is a Mexican 🇲🇽 Massacre not a battle but it had to be done for my great State of Texas to have it's Independence.

@@ReformedSooner24 Definitely
@@ReformedSooner24 The Texans were slavers and came to this land for heinous purposes in the first place. Let's not kid ourselves here people.
Ain't war Hell. General Patton said it, " No bastard has ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by killing the other son of a bitch for his country". I feel no remorse or compassion.
Lol, this gringos
Sam Houston would later be Governor of Texas when Texas seceded from the Union. He opposed the secession of the state and it's entry into the Confederacy and was removed from his post as a result, but his son would fight for the confederate army until wounded at Shiloh. Looks like another case of a divided family to me.
Col William Barret Travis is one of my ancestors and San Jacinto was a massive victory.....REMEMBER THE ALAMO!!!!!
Remember the Alamo.
At 2:05, where General Castillion dies, Santa Anna after the battle called him a fool and he is the reason why the Mexican Army lost to Sam Houston's army.
por salvar la miserable vida de un maldito cobarde y corrupto mi país sufrió una de las más humillantes derrotas de su historia
On this day, 184 years ago, the Battle of San Jacinto was won and Texas was made.

He's a bitch for selling himself out at the end. He sold the Mexican Rebel army out by telling the Americans where they were at.

Santa anna was innocent a bit but not fully actually.the alamo was his and all he wanted to do was take it back.but I do agree he is a bitch and a tyrant.
