'You have died of dysentery' 💀
I know that reference
Oh lord.
'Walter' has broken his arm for the 12th time in 3 months
Great not again
Oh you clever boy!
Me: *walks 1 millimeter on the Oregon Trail*
Game: *you have broken your leg*
true
Me: *walks 1 micrometer on the Oregon Trail*
Game: *you have broken your leg and ribs and a Thief has stolen 24 clothes, 6 Oxen, and 300 bullets and you have contracted dysentery*
True except all your 2 oxen die 1 is injured and 3 are stolen
historically accurate LMAO
I like to die in that game. Right towards the end.

What’s funny is that I’ve never actually played the game
I grew up on the Trail, about 90 miles west of St Joseph, MO. You could still see the wagon wheel ruts in the pasture on a friend's place. They lived in what had been a trading post on the Trail. When they were remodeling, they found rifle ports cut into the walls of their house.
That sick bruh
That is so incredibly awesome, wish I could have seen that
Wow. Amazing
Did the locals get cholera, bitten by snakes, or killed by bandits
Ahh the old West. A time when a paper cut could be fatal!

“You have died of dysentery”
“Shut up Carl!”
Edit: Be honest though, I haven’t received this many likes for a single comment. I would personally like to thank all the Carl’s out there who made that possible.
What did I say?
Carl’s Sr nothing against anyone actually named Carl. Just a military meme. Like if a platoon is doing a ruck march, someone starts singing “makin’ my way downtown” then someone or everyone says “SHUT UP CARL!”
Don't tell me to shut up. You shut up
CampinCarl1911 Shut up Carl!
CampinCarl1911 😂
My entire family died from cholera. A success in my book
Uhm okay?
Good for you
Wtf
repent and believe in Christ🙏🙏
I loved playing this game on the old school Mac computers. I remember the printers and the special paper it needed with all the holes on both side that you would then tear off after it finished printing.
Success plan:
Step 1: wagon
Step 2: 1000 lbs bacon
Step 3: trail
Step 4: dysentery
Step 5: success
How you animate all of this without going insane is amazing to me.

How did I not notice that!?!?

@Rick K yea but its still weird that they put Michigan together with the great lakes.
Traveler: We're gonna survive this, I know it.
Dysentery: I'm gonna stop you right there
Anybody who’s not American:cool history lesson
Americans:YOU HAVE DIED OF DYSENTERY
3rd World Middle class millenials: I can relate with that
Btw i played this game when i was a young boi in the home PC alongside my older brother
Canadians know the game Oregon Trail too. It was a cult classic here in the 80s.
Not me

@@ricraftz76 Nice
From the animals you shot, you have gotten 2000 pounds of meat. However you were only able to carry 100 pounds back to the wagon.
Caulk the wagon and float it across or Attempt to Ford the river?
I grew up on the Trail, just a few miles north of where the ill fated Donner Party buried Mrs. Reed's mother, Sarah Keyes, who died of old age and is buried under a tree near Alcove Spring. I had friends who lived on a farm, which had been Guittard Station, one of those semi-fortified trading posts on the trail. When they remodeled the house, they found the rifle ports in the walls under the plaster. You could see the wagon ruts in their pasture.
Those wagons were basically boats, because of the water crossings. They didn't need to build rafts to float them, as you showed.
As an Oregon resident I appreciate this video
House building theme intensifies
Ive walked the Oregon Trail Ruts up around Wyoming...a cool visit..even visit the little cliff where everyone carved in their names while traveling through
My ancestor walked/ survived the Oregon trail turned left when they reached the ocean and settled on the northern California coast circa 1850s.
Thumbs up stay awesome everyone.
I cannot express my love for learning about this time.
I was born in Oregon City an lived just few yards from Oregon Trail now called Holcomb Blvd in Oregon City. Down the hill from us is Clackamette Park (where Clackamas River dumps into Willamette River. Each wagon train circled the wagons for the last time with Celebrating Feast an Prayers for those who weren't present at the End of the Oregon Trail!

Best dark run of the game

Travels the entire way as a single dad.
Chooses to raft down the Colorado and hits the first rock he sees. All of the children drown, he loses all but one oxen, a set of clothes and 2 bullets along with himself. Makes it the rest of the way.

I had family that took the trail in 1846. Two brothers and their wives. One lost his wife in child birth around Fort Hall. He kind of lost the will to farm in Oregon and headed to California. Had several native wives and ran a trading post. Fought for native rights which got him killed in 1852 I believe.
sounds like a great man. meegwetch.
Awesome, really into my american history right now, unfortunately i'm to young to have seen the age of discorvery and am too old to see the new frontier when humans go to space, so this and red dead is as close as i can get
Happy to see people who still care and appreciate American and world history. 👌
I love this game. Remember playing in Elementery school; I named my wife after a girl I liked at the time, named my children after my friends, except one where I named him after a bully. I would pray he would get bitten by a snake or get dysentery. Didn't know what that was at the time, but it sounded painful. Found a retro gaming site with some of the game-series and repeated by old adventures. One of my 'children' was bitten twice by snakes, one on the first day of our voyage! Then he broke a leg and then he drowned near the end. He had no luck! But, he didn't die of dysentery!
4:27 i get this clock left behind reference!
Apparently, in some versions of The Oregon Trail, you can buy a grandfather clock
Up?
Nope, i saw a old movie about the trail and a family almost fought to death to keep the clock
This was the only video game that school would let us play
And it had guns in it👉❗
A Immigrant is someone that legally moves to another country. They were migrants traveling from one part the U.S to the other.

'a theif comes in the night and takes 200 pounds of meat'
Me: was I robbed by Superman because I can only carry 100 pounds
The video reminds me about the movie "Almost heroes.
I posted a video not too long ago on the Santa Fe Trail. Crazy that you can still see the ruts from the wagons after all of these years.
When Chuck Norris plays Oregon Trail, people do not die of dysentery or cholera, but of roundhouse kick related incidents.
He also requires no wagon or oxen as he carries all his supplies on his shoulders.
And he ALWAYS makes it to Oregon before you.
Do a video about the Boy General, Gregorio del Pilar and his last stand at Tirad Pass during the Philippine-American War of 1899...
(Insert cringy Filipino comment here)
I remember playing Oregon Trail II as a child. I still have the game today and it's still one of my favorites. 😄

I’m a high school freshman. I remember watching this with somewhat interest. Looking back at this now, I realize I was living the good days in 8th grade. 😭
Do not worry, son. Things will just get worse.
Tip: Never drink unfiltered stream water in Oregon. There’s a certain bacteria that causes dysentery and other sickness, and it’s just not a good idea in general. Them roadside filtered spring water fountains hit different tho.
Is that a certain bacteria found specifically in Oregon and nearby states or just in general stream water?
Lil Reg I’m guessing Oregon and nearby states only. Haven’t done much research into it, just don’t drink unfiltered water in general though lol. I think the bacteria name starts with a g. I’ll try and find it, if I do I’ll respond again.
Lil Reg
Found it.
“Giardiasis is an intestinal infection caused by a protozoan and is spread by contaminated water or contact with an infected person”
Aka the beaver fever. It can be found around the world, I just assumed it was found on the west coast. It can be found in any freshwater body I guess.
@@reharp2037 Thanks man apeericate it.
Wow for being animated these videos have some awesome detail to them. I love this channel!
Hi I just wanted to thank you simple history for the videos they've been really helpful for me recently because I moved towns at my new school it's been helping a lot with history thanks
Thanks

The wagons were usually pulled by oxen. Horses were used but would tire. Donkeys were used but were stubborn. Oxen were usually the best option and could pull wagons longer than horses or donkeys.
Another great video simple history keep up the good work and great commentary as always
Wagons going West were actually pulled by oxen not horses.
Both were used
When we head’n back out west?
Moosh Moosh do not waste all of our money on ammo

The animation for the horses is a big step. Good job Simple HIstory!
Thank you so much my school does NHD and I am doing it on the Oregon Trail Perfect Timing!
If you need ideas you could make a video about Marinos Mitralexis. This mad lad was a Greek pilot in a fight against Italian planes. He already shot down some of them and when he ran out of ammo he just rammed another plane, somehow landed safely and captured the whole crew only with a pistol
I frequently drive parts of the trail between the Columbia and Boise. I always think how hard it would be to travel that way by wagon.
I love the quite scenes at the end of these videos.
I love using this channel for schoolwork
your animations are so much better than they used to be!
“You have typhoid”
Well thanks!
The bravery to do this is impressive
May God bless you and this channel and these beautiful people

I recently bought a handheld version of "The Oregon trail"
I'm only in my 20s and have heard alot about the game.
It is pretty fun but I think it would be cool if they came out with a modern version of the game on the consoles.
It could still be educational and fun.

the Oregon Trail ended in Portland?
so it means that Portland was hip BEFORE it was cool!
Strong work sir.
No. The trail ended in Oregon City south of Portland. And Portland wasn't even established yet.
This is great.
Was such a fun video game in the 80s.
me at the beggining of the game: 2000 pounds of food, 10 sets of winter clothes, 3 of every spare part and 200 boxes of bullets.
Me by the end of the game: no money, no food, all but me and my youngest brother dead, brother with a broken arm, no spare parts and we both have a fever.
