I have a BA degree in early American history and I have read and studied so much about the Wild West outlaws-my wife and I even took a 3-week trip to California and stopped by the Bighorn battlefield, Wyatt and Josephine Earp’s grave, stayed in Tombstone, visited Skeleton Canyon where Chief Geronimo surrendered and I think this man’s documentaries are absolutely amazing. My dad took me to see Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid when it opened in 1969. I wasn’t quite 6 years old but I was hooked from then on. This documentary proved exactly how much I didn’t know about these guys! I watched the Nova episode with great expectations when it aired but you sir have outdone yourself. Bravo. 👍🏼❤️. Semper Fi
Gregory I was just about to tear into u but if u are a soldier I have respect. 2 of my best repo guys are Marines and one is still active. The other one (Seth) has a medical discharge. Seth recently retrieved a jeep and he literally jogged thru the woods and repossessed it by himself. He was a recon and a true soldier! Semper Fi
Semper Fi brother, and Jerry Skinner, my friend, if your name is not forever remember as the best biographer and story teller of the 20th century, it will at least be so in the minds of all who watched this video and those who someday will. Jerry your voice is comforting and comes across as the Gods truth.....which I believe it may well be. The research you do to tell these stories of famous people and events is astounding, and I enjoy them all. As a lifetime listener and fan of the late great Paul Harvey, you Jerry have attained the very same level of story telling that Mr. Harvey did. Thank you Jerry for the revelations, truth, and stories that will be passed down for all generations. Greg USMC, devil dogs are we yet drawn to the wisdom of a great man here. Semper Fidelis and again thanks Jerry.
Wouldn’t claim that BA degree -it just means you’re easily brainwashed. LOL. My grandma knew Butch and Cole Younger (at two separate times). Most of what the mainstream claims are pure lies and there was a damned good, righteous reason why the elitists were targeted (robbing the true thieves).
My Grandfather grew up with Butch. His details states his.brother Earl had fresh horses ready for their getaways There were many such stops with fine horses along the way. He also states Butch never died as movies say. He visited relatives in Southern Utah for many years. Your story is excellent. I have much more.detailed information.
@@shaydelady1508 My Grandpa was born 1885. A cowboy in CIRCLEVILLE UTAH and has told me many TRUE tales of the old west. I should share more before western history is lost. Thank you.
@@robertkoehne1795 Yes you SHOULD! I’ve been published twice-on Native American archeology-but you could sell some books with your subject! (Nobody really cares about flint tools or knives (commonly called “arrowheads”) except the Ohio State University that holds some copies. I know I’d be first on line to buy a copy! 👍🏼
Wonderful documentary ! It's still a bit of a shock to realise that characters like Butch and Sundance, Bill Hickock etc. lived so recently (I was born in 1952). Keep up the good work !
Jerry, I've watched many of your short documentaries. They are world class. And your narration style keeps viewers riveted. Brilliant work. Thank you for posting. I hope you post many, many more.
Jerry, as a one man show you definitely put most of the professional TV producers to shame with your excellent research and dedicated work. Thanks a lot.
This was just the second of Jerry's videos I watched and thought the exact same thing. I love how Jerry takes the time to let you see and study scenery and photos and not flash them in 2 or 3 seconds.
Butch was one of my distant cousins. He would come over to my great grandmas house to have dinner once and a while. I wish I could’ve met him. Great documentary!
Another one of many stories told by you I have had the pleasure of listening to You sure have a talent, easy on the ear and engrossing to the mind. Well done sir.
Thank you, Jerry Skinner. If the Lord is willing to let me, I will visit Butch in Circleville next spring. My grandmother told me stories about Butch and company when I was a small child. She heard and read all of the accounts of the day when she was a young girl in the early 1900's. She got me hooked, and I have been all my life. Keep it up, Mr. Skinner
Hi Jerry, Loved your story about the Wild Bunch. I was born & raised in Southern California and moved to Utah in the late '80's. As a kid, I was always interested in the real west. My great grandfather was a sheriff in Dodge City in the 1870's-80's and a black smith. My great aunt told me when I was a kid in the late '60's about her childhood in northern Arizona. In a way, I guess I feel very connected to the old west. Butch & Sundance are, in a way, local celebrities. I've been a trucker for nearly 40 years now, and am familiar with Circleville as well as Wyoming. Beautiful place, Circleville. Once home to a thriving United Order Society under Brigham Young. Thanks for a very detailed history and presentation. I enjoyed it throughly.
I really enjoy listening to you voice Jerry. I'm an Aussie with a fascination for American history. I'm learning so much. Greatly appreciate the depth and quality.
In 1993 my friend Ed born in Lovelock Nevada in 1902 showed me a collapsed cabin alone in a canyon between Emily and Schoca mining district he said Butch and Sundance used after the Winnemucca robbery. I asked Ed how he knew that. He said his dad showed him. Good enough for me.
I really enjoyed that! Good job Jerry... I was fortunate enough to have met Lula several times before she passed away. She was friends with my mother, Fran Coleman and they had long conversations. I have a signed copy of Lula's book.
You are such a GREAT historian. Thank you for all you do. We must keep history alive!!! It’s people like you that will make it possible to learn about American history lessons not told in school. Thank you so much!!!
Can't believe some big tv producer hasn't picked you up for nerwork or cable. Your slow drawl, your personal inflections, and simple deductions would make you a star. I love your videos
Hmm. Very interesting accounting of the two men and their families and life and times. Loved it. Thank you, Jerry. I'd rather watch your productions than anything on TV. Please continue.
Another great documentary that is very well done. Very well indeed. Thank you so much, Mr Skinner, for putting all of this history together. The story of ‘The Wild Bunch’, ‘The Hole In The Wall Gang’, ‘Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid’… are important pieces of Americana that we are all the better for keeping alive. Much gratitude for all your work in doing this. 👏🏼🇺🇸
@@JerrySkinner1943 My pleasure, sir. We’ve spent the afternoon/evening watching several of these. Whale of a job you’ve done! I’m just sorry to have only just now found these! 👏🏼
Jerry, as I live in Utah and have been to Circleville many times as I myself have always been fascinated with Robert. This was very special to me. Thank you for your hard work and sharing with us. Salute Sir to you from this Army Veteran.
My Aunt, who lives in Annabelle Utah, told me about her friend Lulu Parker and how she swore to her that her brother died in the US of old age. Great Video.
Thank you, Mr. Skinner, for your wonderful documentaries. Your credible in-depth research and presentation style is very entertaining, intellectually satisfying and soothing to the soul.
Jerry...Once again, you have done a tremendous job. I greatly appreciate the time and effort (and expense) that you put into bringing this information to us. It would be hard for many of us to get out to places such as Butch's old home, but you bring it to us. You keep making the documentaries, and I'll keep watching. In regards to the life and death of Butch, thank you for clearing up the Hollywood distortion. I find the real life much more interesting.
Thank you Jerry you make us remember The Wests Dust & TumbleWeeds --yes there are Tumble weeds! In Utah I live Here in the North in Granite Gray but I love the south too I I Love this State and It’s People we Try to Teach Truth of Historical information! May the Lord Bless you my Friend and Please keep up the Wonderful Work You Do!
Thank you Jerry, I loved that movie since the first time I seen it in 1971 and now thanks to all of your extensive work I know the truth behind the story! Well done!
Another very detailed account of notorious figures of the past. This one is so complicated that the different names do become confusing, but aside from that it still is a great piece of work. Keep them coming Jerry as you are leaving a very fine legacy. Jeff Randall.
I truly loved watching this documentary! Growing up in Rock Springs Wyoming I have been told many stories about Butch Cassidy in life! I've walked the same streets he walked in town and the same trails he rode! I even seen and know the location of a large Rock I believe he scratched his name on. Its located by hiway 430 many miles south Rock Springs. This hiway goes to the Browns Park area. It is inscribed: L. Parker 1898
Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid was one of my favorite movies, but I hate its final scene. It was just a fun escape from life for a couple of hours, so thanks for hauling all of us to places we'd never visit, and history behind so many celebrities and movies. This video might be the fastest 45 minutes I've watched in a very long time; it was purely delightful! Thanks so much!!! Maybe I'll look for it on fire stick and watch it for the umpteenth time.
Thank you so much for such an outstanding documentary. I appreciate the time and effort you had to have put into it because it is so professional. I have always thought that Elzy would have went down to South America if he hadn't been in prison when Butch left. In my humble opinion I have always thought to myself that if Butch was alive and operating today he would target Walmarts. That company is just as despised today as the banks and railroads back in Butch's day.
Jerry I just wanted to let you know that I could watch your videos over and over and over and over. Again you do awesome work my brother the way you go into details is unreal and I think the History Channel could learn a lot from your videos and your information thank you so much once again..
Thank you for a well put together documentary, I come from New Zealand, which is about as far away from the US as it is to possibly be, but none the less find these documentaries fascinating. We hear of legends/outlaws and of course see all of the movies, but the movies never seem to tell the real story. Well done Sir.
Yet another well researched story Mr Skinner your documentaries are worthy of a much wider coverage than the internet provides, having said that I am very happy to have found your work on said internet.I look forward to seeing many more. thank you for sharing them with us.
Jerry, you have out done yourself with this one. You have convinced me that Butch did not die in South America, but some where near his family. Its interesting how we can look upon a criminal and some how make him to a folklore hero, such as Bonnie and Clyde, Dillinger. Thank you for this entertainment.....
Superb tale. Thank you, Jerry. I will not view Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid the same again. The big mystery to me is the fate of Miss Edda Place. Thanks again.
I spoke to a guy one time and his grandfather was always telling them when they were children about his days when he was in a gang with Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid. He would tell them stories about it and nobody wanted to listen to him. He said after the movie came out everybody wanted to listen to him. He was actually writing a book about his grandfather’s stories.
thanks for this Jerry I remember when i was at university in the 1990's i found a copy of his sister's book on a shelf and read with amazement that she said he had come back from south america and visited her decades later, fascinating story and now 20 years later i get to fill in the rest of the story from your video, thanks There is something romantic and life affirming about knowing Butch made it out of there ok
Amazing detail! And to find so many photos of the actual folk makes this story so real. Well done sir, you really are the best at recording the facts about the people misrepresented in films.
Wow, a truly fascinating video of America's very own Robin Hood that has interested me since the 1969 movie that I saw in 1969 or 1970 in Hendon North London. Beautifully narrated and delivered. Just keep 'em coming Jeryy.
Hi Jerry, Another 45 minutes of true enjoyment and entertaining education. I’ve mentioned before I have Military based Severe PTSD and struggle with long videos in general and concentration on subjects like this has proved near impossible. This is just the second lengthy video of yours I’ve watched and I see you have many posted so I hope to keep being able to enjoy them when my mind allows. Thank you for this 45 minute period of peace, few can calm the storm that long. Peace Charlie UK 🇬🇧
Jerry, you just hit another one over the fence! The detail you craft into each of your videos is astounding! I couldn't do anything but just sit and watch once I'd begun listening to the story. "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" is one of my favorite westerns. In fact, it has one of the only examples of anyone reloading their Colt revolvers during a gunfight. Most times, the cowboys pictured are constantly exchanging gunfire without any reloads... Because I own and shoot a few Colt SAA's myself, I can tell you that when these guns run dry, you will stop and you will have to reload! Unlike modern designed automatics that simply require a new magazine be inserted, reloading one of the 1873 Colts takes a few moments and is not something you can rush through. Jerry, thanks again for another well written and informative video!
Jerry Skinner - Always good to see new material from you. I'm guessing the last time we spoke was earlier this year when we discussed your brother's guitar video that I enjoyed so much. Well, I'm just sitting here looking at the reports of what Irma has done to Florida. The damage that has been done from the Caribbean through Florida is unbelievable in scale and destructive power. As much as I'd like to help, I figure the best thing I can do is send a check. They can use my check more easily than having me in their way! Again, thanks for the video and let's just keep counting the bullets! Take care!
That was so interesting. You have reminded me of my love of old west history. And I love your voice. I sit and sew and listen to you. Thank you so much.
Thanks for a great documentary, well-researched and well-presented, and more believable than any I've seen on Butch and Sundance and The Wild Bunch. Best regards from Waihi Beach, New Zealand.
I'll never forget Redford(Sundance) to Newman(Cassidy) at the railcar: "Think you used enough dynamite there, Butch?" Ya did it again, Jerry. Great job and keep 'em comin'! Suggestion: Annie Oakley.
I love your videos. They are very interesting & I love to hear your accent. I look forward to watching everything you post. Thank you for all your great videos.
Because they're just that good. I'm working my way through his work and have enjoyed all that I've listened to so far. His first video's reveal how much he has improved over the years.
Always a top-notch presentation keep up the great work, been following your history at different times, and people since you first started, not anyone can breathe so much life into the topics you present.
Thankyou for another great historical story. I always loved that movie, so it makes it even more exciting to know that the 2 buried in the unmarked graves were genetically not them. It isn't really in keeping with there pattern anyway. And, although it was a fun movie it warms my heart to know how much he loved his mother, and that he took care of his family. I hope my son reads this! Love your work, mr skinner and look forward to the next one. I need to listen again to get it in my head!
Jerry, that was another great story! While listening to your stories and hearing your voice ,I always visualize! I visualize that I can see the real characters! Your a great story teller and you must work hard to gather the information for presentations! Thank you!
A really good history lesson. I love listening to your histories of various people, and I love your southern accent too, even here in England. I look forward to the next one.
Hi Jerry..Thank you so much for this amazing episode!!! Your research has been incredible!!! The tail in your story give us an well rounded picture of what appears to have happened to Butch and Sundance, their families, associates and lovers. Let alone their crime waves!!! need to absorb this story again!! Cheers, Marilyn.
Thanks Jerry Skinner for this amazing true life historical story about Butch Cassidy, Sundance Kid and the entire dynamics of the gang... As a child I was always fascinated about the guys and all the other stories of the Old West across the USA, I just found it to be a treasure trove of interesting characters in the times of history... I just enjoy your amazing story recounts and all the facts which all fit together placing things where they should be... As a child I always believed that Butch and Sundance got away from the authorities and made it back home to the USA... Thanks ever so much for making things clearer for an avid history buff... Have a great day, bless you Jerry.
Thankyou Jerry for posting this , I am glad I was able to help you with this , and provide many of the Old pictures. I treasure my friendship with Lula Parker-Bentenson

Thank you for a well put together documentary, I come from New Zealand, which is about as far away from the US as it is to possibly be, but none the less find these documentaries fascinating. We hear of legends/outlaws and of course see all of the movies, but the movies never seem to tell the real story. Well done Sir.
Jerry you are the Man..... love listening to you tell the stories. Thank you sir...
Yet another well researched story Mr Skinner your documentaries are worthy of a much wider coverage than the internet provides, having said that I am very happy to have found your work on said internet.I look forward to seeing many more. thank you for sharing them with us.
Soothing voice that brings you back in time, thank you.
Jerry, you have out done yourself with this one. You have convinced me that Butch did not die in South America, but some where near his family. Its interesting how we can look upon a criminal and some how make him to a folklore hero, such as Bonnie and Clyde, Dillinger. Thank you for this entertainment.....
Superb tale. Thank you, Jerry. I will not view Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid the same again. The big mystery to me is the fate of Miss Edda Place. Thanks again.
I spoke to a guy one time and his grandfather was always telling them when they were children about his days when he was in a gang with Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid. He would tell them stories about it and nobody wanted to listen to him. He said after the movie came out everybody wanted to listen to him. He was actually writing a book about his grandfather’s stories.
Better than any book I’ve ever read on Wild West outlaws. Mr.Skinner certainly does his research. I am never disappointed in any of his videos.
Just awesome documentary Jerry ! So much detail! You should be proud of your work! Thanks for sharing with us all !
Excellent! Loved it. Clears up a few things for me. I like the idea that he is resting near him mom-ma.
thanks for this Jerry
I remember when i was at university in the 1990's i found a copy of his sister's book on a shelf and read with amazement that she said he had come back from south america and visited her decades later, fascinating story and now 20 years later i get to fill in the rest of the story from your video, thanks
There is something romantic and life affirming about knowing Butch made it out of there ok
A great true story.
Amazing detail! And to find so many photos of the actual folk makes this story so real. Well done sir, you really are the best at recording the facts about the people misrepresented in films.
Wow, a truly fascinating video of America's very own Robin Hood that has interested me since the 1969 movie that I saw in 1969 or 1970 in Hendon North London. Beautifully narrated and delivered. Just keep 'em coming Jeryy.
Hi Jerry,
Another 45 minutes of true enjoyment and entertaining education.
I’ve mentioned before I have Military based Severe PTSD and struggle with long videos in general and concentration on subjects like this has proved near impossible.
This is just the second lengthy video of yours I’ve watched and I see you have many posted so I hope to keep being able to enjoy them when my mind allows.
Thank you for this 45 minute period of peace, few can calm the storm that long.
Peace

Thank you Charlie, good to hear from you again my friend. Jerry
Learning the false story of a mobster is "education" all right.
Jerry, you just hit another one over the fence! The detail you craft into each of your videos is astounding! I couldn't do anything but just sit and watch once I'd begun listening to the story. "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" is one of my favorite westerns.
In fact, it has one of the only examples of anyone reloading their Colt revolvers during a gunfight. Most times, the cowboys pictured are constantly exchanging gunfire without any reloads... Because I own and shoot a few Colt SAA's myself, I can tell you that when these guns run dry, you will stop and you will have to reload! Unlike modern designed automatics that simply require a new magazine be inserted, reloading one of the 1873 Colts takes a few moments and is not something you can rush through.
Jerry, thanks again for another well written and informative video!
Paul good to hear from you, I am like you, i always count the bullets when a watch a movie gunfight.
Jerry Skinner - Always good to see new material from you. I'm guessing the last time we spoke was earlier this year when we discussed your brother's guitar video that I enjoyed so much.
Well, I'm just sitting here looking at the reports of what Irma has done to Florida. The damage that has been done from the Caribbean through Florida is unbelievable in scale and destructive power. As much as I'd like to help, I figure the best thing I can do is send a check. They can use my check more easily than having me in their way!
Again, thanks for the video and let's just keep counting the bullets!
Take care!

Top notch stuff, indeed. Theatre of the mind, this would make a great radio broadcast.
That was so interesting. You have reminded me of my love of old west history. And I love your voice. I sit and sew and listen to you. Thank you so much.
Just wanted to say Thank You for the hours of listening to your story’s. You and Paul Harvey are the kings of telling the story
Very good. Thank you for making this. Well set out, superbly paced, and speaking as a Brit, your voice is the icing on the cake.
Brit? He sounds like an old US hillbilly, which he is.
Thanks for a great documentary, well-researched and well-presented, and more believable than any I've seen on Butch and Sundance and The Wild Bunch. Best regards from Waihi Beach, New Zealand.
I'll never forget Redford(Sundance) to Newman(Cassidy) at the railcar: "Think you used enough dynamite there, Butch?"
Ya did it again, Jerry. Great job and keep 'em comin'! Suggestion: Annie Oakley.
I love your videos. They are very interesting & I love to hear your accent. I look forward to watching everything you post. Thank you for all your great videos.
Hey friend.
How are you doing today?
AWESOME YOU ARE A GREAT STORY TELLER THANK YOU SIR I LOVE YOUR VIDEO'S GODBLESS YOU...
What is it about this man's videos that you feel so close to the subject? So well done, and so to the point.
Because they're just that good. I'm working my way through his work and have enjoyed all that I've listened to so far. His first video's reveal how much he has improved over the years.
Outstanding commentary and video film work, Jerry. Appreciated this piece, thanks, for the posting, TED.
Great work I can't get enough of your documentaries you do such a great job!! Keep up the great work and be well...
When I was a tot I watch Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid with my half brother Troy and my parents… at the drive-in theater.
Hey Marie.
How are you doing today?
Always a top-notch presentation keep up the great work, been following your history at different times, and people since you first started, not anyone can breathe so much life into the topics you present.
Thank you David, my friend. Jerry
Thank you Jerry ! I have seen quite a few of your documentaries . I have enjoyed every one so far ! Please keep them going .
Mr. Skinner I love your work....great commentary great story telling....just great all together
Thank you Jerry. You put a lot of effort into this post I know. And it’s appreciated very much.
Thankyou for another great historical story. I always loved that movie, so it makes it even more exciting to know that the 2 buried in the unmarked graves were genetically not them. It isn't really in keeping with there pattern anyway. And, although it was a fun movie it warms my heart to know how much he loved his mother, and that he took care of his family. I hope my son reads this! Love your work, mr skinner and look forward to the next one. I need to listen again to get it in my head!
I love history and biographies. And I love your videos. They are always so interesting. Keep them coming.
Jerry, that was another great story! While listening to your stories and hearing your voice ,I always visualize! I visualize that I can see the real characters! Your a great story teller and you must work hard to gather the information for presentations! Thank you!
A really good history lesson. I love listening to your histories of various people, and I love your southern accent too, even here in England. I look forward to the next one.
Thank you Groke. Jerry
Hi Jerry..Thank you so much for this amazing episode!!! Your research has been incredible!!! The tail in your story give us an well rounded picture of what appears to have happened to Butch and Sundance, their families, associates and lovers. Let alone their crime waves!!! need to absorb this story again!! Cheers, Marilyn.
Hey Marilyn.
How are you doing today?
Thanks Jerry Skinner for this amazing true life historical story about Butch Cassidy, Sundance Kid and
the entire dynamics of the gang...
As a child I was always fascinated about the guys and all the other stories of the Old West across the USA,
I just found it to be a treasure trove of interesting characters in the times of history...
I just enjoy your amazing story recounts and all the facts which all fit together placing things where they should be...
As a child I always believed that Butch and Sundance got away from the authorities and made it back home to the USA...
Thanks ever so much for making things clearer for an avid history buff... Have a great day, bless you Jerry.
Thankyou Jerry for posting this , I am glad I was able to help you with this , and provide many of the Old pictures.
I treasure my friendship with Lula Parker-Bentenson
