It's always good to have a side-hustle if your primary career choice isn't working for you. It's also helpful to have active friends. Doc was motivational when you think on it.
Totally agree!
I think I read the shotgun Doc carried at the Ok Corral was a 10 gauge double barrel he borrowed from a shopkeeper.
Our local Cracker Barrel had an original Colt Model 1878 shotgun hanging on the wall, Pietta makes a cool replica of the Colt 12 gauge side-by-side.
😎👍
The one Wyatt used on Curly Bill (allegedly) was also used on Bill Doolin.
He is almost as large in pop-culture and widely known as Wyatt Earp. It seems that you can't have one without the other. Enjoyed the episode!
Thank You!
Doc, was an interesting man of his time. I think he pushed things sometimes to try to avoid death by Consumption. He was a true friend to Wyatt, a genuine gentleman in some ways. A true man of his time, from the Deep South
Thanks for watching
Just a fun fact from Georgia. Valdosta Ga. We pronounce it "Val Dah Sta", with an "Ahh" sound, in Georgia.
We Southerners drag our words out! Its more romantic, in the summer heat and humidity. 😅
Great lifetime story though. And the town of Griffin, Ga. Celebrates "Doc Holidays" every year, in his honor!
Thanks for that! I found a pronunciation online and went with that.
@@ArizonaGhostriders LOL... it happens!
Amazing job on this one Santee. Doc did live a...very interesting life, and though he wasn't always the hero some movies make him out to be he was still a friend and supporter of Wyatt and honestly as much as Wyatt was believed to have done...questionable things, having that ONE loyal friend was always a good thing.
Great video.
🤠🤠
Loyalty is all we need in this world amigo 💯 👍
Love what you said
Doc was so much my favorite character of the Old West that I named a character Brandon Holiday (the first name from the late Brandon Lee) and he was an online role-playing persona for at least a decade.
Cool!
Doc Holliday was the definition of what it means to live without fear imagine being a dentist diagnosed with tuberculosis turned outlaw besides being a gunslinger he had a sharp mind and had a deep loyalty to his friends growing up I never had friends but I always loved reading books of the old west doc Holliday was the only one who ever gave me hope to live life without fear
Thanks for watching!
Growing up watching Gunfight at the OK Corral on TNT or TBS the 90s, Burt Lancaster’s Wyatt tells Kirk Douglas’ Doc “I’m sorry you gave up your practice. Too bad, you were a good dentist.” I always thought Doc replied, while picking up a cup of coffee to sip on, “My patients didn’t like my coffee.”
It wasn’t until I watched it recently as an adult that I realized he said “my patients didn’t like my coughing.” and connected the real humor and reference with his TB
HAHA! I get that.
I swear y’all and Frontier Western Heritage have the best intros on CZcams.
Thanks for all y’all do!
Thank You!
Everyone loves Doc because we all wish we had a good friend who would back us up no matter what the situation was .
OK!
I have a friend like that and I will always love him from afar and hate hurting his feelings and I respect his privacy totally
Always was a Doc Holliday fan. I also have to say my favorite Hollywood Doc was Val Kilmer. Thanks for the video.
Be safe out there, and take it easy.
Thanks, you too!
Loved the mini doc. on Doc. 🤠
Thanks!
That line about the guy being turned into a collander....pretty good... hahaha
Thank You!
Santee, thank you so much for a great video on Doc Holliday. I went to college with Doc Holliday's nephew in Michigan. He was the great-great-grandson of his sister. His nephew had his Dental certification with him and brought it to class and showed all of us. It was in a multicolored doctor certificate and was very Victorian with the calligraphy. He told me that his great-great-grandmother left Michigan and went to Colorado to bury her brother. He said that his great-great-grandmother came to Michigan in the 1870s. Great episode and thanks for sharing.
Thank You!
I’m so happy you finally made a video on this! I really enjoy learning about the life of doc. I heard somebody say that when he lived in Georgia he got in a fight with some guy over water and stabbed him to death. He’s definitely got a very interesting life.
There's a lot of deaths attributed him, but not many of them can be proven.
Getting older myself, I’ve probably already told you I’ve been to Holidays grave site in Glenwood Springs. Pretty sobering to know the old west was real, and so were the people.
🤠🤠
Being a 23 year old man from the southern U.s., and finding out my health is failing already. Have traveled all across this beautiful country, you can truly appreciate a story like Doc's. The man just realized life is too short to not make the most of it.
Yes, make the most of it. Thanks for watching.🥃🥃
Thanks for another awesome video. Thank you pard I appreciate you.
Much appreciated.
WOW, this was so interesting. I didn't know all of that about Doc. As always, your audios and visuals are superb, Santee and friends.🎊 I particularly enjoyed this one.👏☀️🤠👏
Glad you enjoyed it!
Doc seems to be a favorite of many Old West enthusiasts, even if he wasn't a model citizen. Another fantastic video Santee!
Model citizens tend to not be the most interesting of people, no one studies a ned flanders
Thank You!
He seemed to do well with the hand he was dealt. TB sounded like hell on earth.
@@TheBatugan77 I'm sure it was.
Good video on an interesting and misunderstood character. Val Kilmer and Dennis Quaid both brought a sense of realism to Doc; although he was probably less flamboyant in real life.
I imagine he was gruff.
@Arizona Ghostriders That would stand to reason given his circumstance. Good day Santee. God bless, Rob
I my fascination with Doc Holliday comes from the fact that only did he have the skills with gambling and a gun but he was this like Southern gentleman who didn't care who you were if he likes you he likes you now was it he would do anything for his friends no matter who they were what class they were it didn't matter to him
Thank You!
This is the perfect time to say too. He might have been reckless, but he did not have a death wish, he wanted to prolong his life as much as possible. He became a desperate man near the end of his life. And Wyatt and Doc did see eachother just one last time before he passed. Great Video Santee. Have a good Saturday.
Thank You!
Outstanding video Santee thanks for the great info it's always fun hearing about Doc 🤠 Later Pard 🍺🍻🥃👊🤠
🦅🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🦅
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice job. I studied up on Doc Holliday when I lived in Tucson and Benson and even I learned a couple of things.
Sadly, a lot of the "fun stuff" is hearsay or rumor.
In many communities you will find a popular local historical personality with many narratives passed down through an oral tradition but sadly many of those historical stories are just “historical gossip” and lack a proper sense of factual truth. They are interesting stories although not usually accurate in the real historical context. These things must be taken with a “grain of salt” and sometimes a barrel will not do 😉 Thanks Santee for the great content.
Another great video Santee. I’d say I’m surprised it’s good, but at this point I’m used to it. :)
(And one other thing, maybe a possible video on the gunfighter Clay Allison?)
Thank You! Yes on Clay
Here’s some small paragraphs from my old West and retrofuturism story/series:
‘In the era only known as futures unknown, there been rumored whispers of a unknown dimension which lies outside of the VoidVerse of MidRule.
There are whisperings on the winds breath of the name of that dimension, which is only known as the Westrian Outland far rooms.
On one afternoon at the main building of the liminality research facility, during the researchers lunch break 26 year old researcher and lawman deputy Mercia Hawkins spotted a old video camera in the tray of the vending machine.
Which was just down the hall from the break room.
That was when Mercia was just about to push the button on the vending machine for one of his favorite beverages a apple soda.
The video camera in the tray caught his attention instead.
He bent over and picked up the camera.
The camera had the name Khloah La’Coi written on the side of it and there was a folded map tied to the camera on the other side.
Unknown to Mercia that camera and map would lead him,his father Thomason thatcher who was the sheriff of Faron city and head researcher alongside four others to a remote location in the infinitely vast Atlantemurian sea, that’s also called ocean of the great unknown.
Mercia would soon be pulled into a liminal exploratory mission in the rumored westrian Outland far rooms themselves.
I hope you all really like these paragraphs from my book.
🤠
@@ArizonaGhostriders thanks.💕😎🌟❤️👍🏼
Doc is a hard study, there's so much contradictory information, even about basic stuff like why he left Georgia has multiple explanations beyond TB
Yup
It is really nice to have a video covering Doc Holiday. I didn't even know most of these facts myself.
Interestingly, when I'm doing my old west Marshall bit, a lot of people think I'm trying to be Doc Holiday, but only because of my style of mustache and flat brimmed hat.
Interesting!
Thanks for doing a video on my favorite character from the old west. I have always been a fan, but Val cemented it when he portrayed Doc. I felt he embodied the character the best and felt that his accent was pretty much spot on for the Georgia aristocracy. I am in the camp of Doc was framed for the stage robbery. Kate was pissed at him and lied to get back at him. I would love to see a video on Confederate Territory of Arizona as well as famous Confederates that came through or lived in Arizona. I know Old Man Clanton was Confederate. Doc's was the son of a Confederate Officer. Thanks as always Compadre.
Thanks, Eric!
I am a bit of a doc holiday but I detest violence and guns and I spread that news to those who are off their mobile long enough to listen. I am a Londoner. Thanks for the interesting clip! 😎
Well, the Old West had a lot of violence and guns...so you may not love this channel!
@@ArizonaGhostriders no but I have always enjoyed westerns and I could have been a female type doc holiday as I often hop in and protect people if I feel it is necessary and I do it with humour. I love the way Doc
Halliday says 'I' m your huckleberry'
to distract Ringo from killing Wyatt Earp in the film Tombstone whether it was a true happening or not. I just don't like the meaningless violence of today is what I really meant
@@ulla1623 Ahhh, ok! Glad you are getting something out of our videos.
@@ArizonaGhostriders yes I find Americans generally to be very sweet people. I just don't understand the American sense of humour as I am British. Love your historical info and I really admire strong historical characters like God fearing Wyatt and crazy but caring Doc. Take care thoughtful caring man! 😎
Another great one!! Thank you Santee
🤠🤠
Thank you very much. Have a blessed weekend.
Thank you too
Waited a while for this one, and as always you knock it out of the park!
Thank You!
Loved working with Greg Hugo in old Tombstone comedy gunfight and stunt show. Always a super nice guy and mentor to me !
Couldn't agree more!
Doc Is and Forever will be the greatest wild west legend ever
Glad you enjoy his history!
@@ArizonaGhostriders love his history my family is related to the Holliday's
Great stuff,
Always makes my Saturday!
🤠🤠
Well done. I still think that Val Kilmer deserved and ask her for his betrayal of Doc. The movie tombstone may not be the most accurate, but it damn sure is the most entertaining!🤠
I'd agree!
Nice piece. You can always tell the level of interest by the responses it garners..
Cool.
Great episode Santee! Doc is definitely fascinating! Thanks!
My pleasure!
As always, both a good presentation, and History lesson, only two of the reasons I love these videos!
Many thanks!
Still, a great tale any way that it's told. Thanks so much Santee.
Glad you enjoyed it
I found it interesting that the only relative he wrote to during his life was his first cousin Melanie "Mattie" Holiday.
She was the one he was in love with who later entered a Catholic Convent and was known as Sister Melanie.
She was born in 1850 (eight teen months older than Doc) and died in 1939 at the age of 89.
When Doc died a local newspaper wrote this in the article: "“
"He had only one correspondent among his relatives - a cousin, a Sister of Charity, in Atlanta, Georgia. She will be notified of his death, and will in turn advise any other relatives he may have living. Should there be an aged father or mother, they will be pleased to learn that kind and sympathetic hands were about their son in his last hours and he was accorded a Christian Burial."
Reportedly her family had those letters, but years later one of Mattie's sisters burned them as they were of a private nature.
Imagine just how much of a loss to our knowledge of Doc that was !
It would certainly help us to humanize him more.
Well done. I still think they’ll Val Kilmer deserved an Oscar for his betrayal of Doc. The movie tombstone may not be the most accurate, but it damn sure is the most entertaining!🤠(sorry about that everybody voice command sucks thanks for understanding the ask her though)😂
Yes
Great video guys really enjoyed it always been fascinated with doc holiday have a great day and happy trails
Thanks! You too!
Thanks for another great episode!
You're welcome
Great Job Santee! I enjoyed our weekly "coffee visit" have a great week! Pew Pew indeed
Glad you enjoyed it
Congrats on the 100k subs . Why it took so long I'll never know . Love your work . Thank you and pew pew . 💖
Much appreciated!
Another interesting candid view of the old west. ..Doc kinda reminds me of my dental tech when she's getting ready to clean my teeth. I think it's that look in her eyes.
HAHA!
Another great episode Santee. Keep them coming.
JT
Thank You!
As always thank you 😊
You're welcome
Great video! Thanks.
You're welcome!
I love doc Holliday facial hair in the tombstone movie
Yes!
@@ArizonaGhostriders it looks nice and clean
Ah the most famous person from the wild west from my state! Griffin is about two or so hours away from where I live...as long as I go down the route that doesn't have a toll booth, if I take the toll booth route it's about and hour and some change. My grandma LOVED Val Kilmer's version of him from Tombstone, her favorite character in the movie (then again Val Kilmer was one of her favorite actors). I actually bought the Director's Cut of the DVD for her as a birthday present the year before she died since she'd watch the movie whenever it was on TV...learned the gun spinning trick he did with the cup as well...still can't do it with a cup though lol.
Cool!
Thanks for this. Love finding out about these characters from the South. My Grandmother's people are from Georgia.
Nice
Mine too...of course we're still here.
If you're down this way in Sept we have the Doc Holliday Festival In Griffin. Fun for the whole family.
@@slowturtle6745 I never heard of this, thanks
" On the seventh day He rested", but not before having a cup of coffee and watching The Arizona Ghostriders Saturday morn'n.
HAHAHA!
I LOVE these short biographies! More more more!
Thank You!
Love videos like this where you show historical figures. So awesome Santee. Hope you are well my friend. Stay safe. 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed
Yet anudder great episode under yer belt. Great compilation of information.
Much appreciated
Another amazing episode Santee!I may not be American but thanks to you I’ll always appreciate the culture of the western frontier thanks to you
Much appreciated!
I really loved this video about doc Holliday. He's one of my favorite Western characters. And although I liked the Western Wyatt Earp with Kevin Costner, and Dennis Quaid as doc Holliday, I just think Val kilmer really nailed it. 🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠
🤠🤠
Great episode! My little girl loves your show and yells Santee’s back! Santee’s back! And comes runnin’ when she hears you on tv. 😂
Oh wow! Thanks.
Always intrigued with learning more history. Been to Tombstone three times so far and plan many more trips to there and Bisbee while I'm stationed here.
Cool!
Great bit of history. Griffin is about a 20 minute ride from my house. They have an annual event there for Doc.
So I hear! Fun stuff.
Loved it!!!
Thank You!
I WAS ON A TRIPPPPPPP NOOOOOOOOOOOO Dang nabbit! I missed it... Thank you so much Santee and gang! You guys are great!!!
Thanks!
Thanks again Santee & Co. How about making a video about Texas Colonel William Travis from South Carolina ?
Great suggestion!
So very awesome, inspiring and informatively interesting video, I really liked and enjoyed it. I learned a lot about Doc Holliday and the old west.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@ArizonaGhostriders thanks and your welcome 💕🌟😎❤️👍🏼
Interesting information on Doc…thank you for sharing this.
Our pleasure!
Good stuff as always!
Thanks again!
Thank you Santee, great history lesson. Learned a few things. Have a great weekend. :)
Glad you enjoyed it
I am about to run a vampire themed tabletop roleplaying game set in the Old West for my friends. I gotta say, thank you so much for all the info you provided.
Glad I could help!
I’ve considered doing Doc ( from tombstone)for my work’s Halloween event next year seeing as I’m doing a group costume this year. Might have to sub the Colt lightning for his cup tho 😂
HA!
"You can't even see straight " " well that's alright I have two guns, one for each of you"
Yep
Thanks
Welcome
For an excellent description of the Wyatt Earp-Doc Holliday relationship,
read the book DODGE CITY...THE WICKEDEST TOWN IN THE WEST by Tom Clavin.
Also,at least for my liking, Mr. Clavin describes what actually happened at the O.K. Corral on October 26, 1881.✌✌✌✌
Well, his rendition is yet another one. However, they are all worth a read to help you form your own idea.
@@ArizonaGhostriders Nice way of putting it. Lol
I for the longest time, thought consumption was alcohol poisoning until I became aware of Mr. Holiday.
Ahh. 🤠
Good one! Doc is always my favorite 😎😂🍻
🤠
I love in Tombstone when i think it was Creek Johnson asks why hes doing it and Creek says I got lots of friends and Doc says I don't 😥
Yep
Holiday looks like my grandpa when he was younger
Cool!
Thanks as always!
You're welcome.
Howdy parn rapscallion Santee, I am always waiting to see L next videos on Saturday mor’n. Another good one, can’t wait next one.:-)
More to come!
@@ArizonaGhostriders I am looking forward to them Santee. If can watch David, Durango & I did a radio interview recently KRIM-FM.
Seems like a good portion of Doc's contemporaries were on alternating sides of the law at various times.
Many were at that time.
That's the man who join in with the Earp brothers to walk down at the ok corral great video Santee I tip my hat to you the man from Arizona
You rock!
@@ArizonaGhostriders thank you Santee when I go live again I'll add you to the guest list I'll let you know
Another great video santee
Thank You!
Well done and fun to watch video.🤠👍
Thank You!
Doc is one of my favorite characters mostly from Val Kilmer excellent performance in Tombstone. Doc’s real life was equally fascinating and more tragic! Thanks for Sharing this abridged history!
BTW, like Prescott has a local pronunciation so does Valdosta. It is pronounced Val-dah-sta not Val-doe-sta. Living 130 miles almost due west in Dothan Al , pronounced Doe-than not Dot-han, in know despite what the interwebs say.. which bring up a point.
So many people are “experts on what really happened” for events +- 140 years ago based on modern interpretations, tactics and techniques and yes, there where exaggerations and skewed views back then to , that I don’t know if we can ever know for certain what did and didn’t happen.
One of favorites is Wyatt could not have possibly used a 12”barreled Peacemaker because they where never made and it would be too unwieldy for fastdraw! Well Colt doesn’t have a record of such a gun being commissioned, that is true but unlike today every SN didn’t have to be recorded and there is nothing to prevent a gunsmith for commissioning one. The same people stating this say there are not any revolvers with over 7” … except they are. Ruger has a 9” Single Six and 10” SuperBlack Hawk are modern examples. The second hole in this argument is Wyatt wasn’t a practitioner of “fastdraw”, which is mostly a Western movie concept. From what I read and studied he would rather approach someone with pistol drawn but out of sight since he was more likely to “Buffalo” them (hit some over the head with the barrel or butt of the gun to disable them) than shoot them.
Do I believe he had a 12” Buntline Special…not necessarily. I imagine Wyatt stated was “My gun was a foot long” as that would give a better sight radius, as he stressed actually aiming not hip shooting, fanning hammers or other “gimmicks and showboating”, and more weight and leverage for Buffaloing. When it got published “Wyatt carried a 12” barrel gun” he never corrected it because it added to the mystic. “This is the West, sir. When the legend becomes fact, print the legend!”
Thanks for putting up with me wee verbose and rambling response.
Adios me Amigo!
Thank You!
Wikipedia states (yeah, I know wiki can be inaccurate) that Wyatt possibly used a S&W model 3 at the OK Corral. Given that model's 7" barrel, I guess if you add the cylinder + grip, you could say it was a foot long/12 inches 🤷♂️
@@sopwithsnoopy8779 Yeah, we just know he didn't have a Buntline, since there wasn't one.
@@ArizonaGhostriders “Was too, I seen it with me own eyes. It was in a green felt lined presentation box! In Tombstone…” now let see if thee can figure this wee riddle and meet me in the middle, it should be quite easy!
Super great video . Doc Holiday is awesome 😊
Thank You!
Doc Holliday is the reason why I became a Dental Nurse. I wasn't smart or patient enough to train as a dentist lol.
HAHA!
This channel is on par with a network show. Maybe not in length but quality. However; it’s a talent in itself to take a plethora of information and condense it into such a concise presentation.
thank you much!
Deft use of historical photos and movie clips made for an enjoyable video. 😉
Many thanks!
Great video Santee
Thanks!
Love your videos
Thank You!
Awesome Video thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for the visit
Another awesome video, Santee! Although I don't have much to say about him, I loved hearing the famous quote, "I'll be your huckleberry." I always thought he was paid/hired killer rather than a rogue. Anyways, it's an excellent video, Santee.
Thank You!
A terminally ill drunkard with a passion for cards and violence, and the soul and words of a poet - he's like the classic Irish hero. When Tombstone hit the cinemas years ago I read the famous book on gunfighters, Triggernometry, and I remember the author interviewed the deputy sheriff of Tombstone (played by Jason Priestly in the movie) and he said Johnny Ringo was found dead with no boots on and what he firmly believed was a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. They found his horse in the vicinity, with Ringo's boots hanging from the saddle and, according to the deputy, Ringo had a terror of a particular species of highly venomous scorpion which was especially common in the area - he believed Ringo's horse had ambled off with the boots and Ringo was so petrified of the scorpion he felt trapped and took his own life. With that in mind, I would really love to see a video about your scorpions. I know you did some before, and I especially like your nature of the West videos, but here in the northwest of Europe we often don't appreciate the difficult landscape and those kind of details. In many set-bound movies the West is so stagy it's like there's no landscape at all involved, nor wild animals, or poisonous plants or anything else. Sorry for such a long comment - loving the videos!
Thank You!
Hey Santee, are y’all planning on going to Tombstone Redemption in July? I know you gave the game a lot of credit for aspects about its historical accuracy.
I'll try!
@@ArizonaGhostriders That’s awesome! Hope to see you all out there!
I'm Your Huckleberry,Say When 😊😊
