    Just for reasons of historical accuracy, the iconic hump on the top of the mission was not there during the battle. It was an addition constructed by the U.S. Army, after Texas was granted statehood, so that a sloped roof could be put on rather than the more traditional southwestern flat roof. Just FYI!

    So fun family fact from the ol Stogy, I have a distant cousin that's name is on that monument because he was a volunteer. Asa Walker. There is even a street by the Alamo that is named after him, Walker Street. Lot of family history in Texas and I could not be more proud.

    I am an indirect (collateral) descendant of Davy Crockett. My family is directly descended from Davy's brother Nathan. My father had a family bible that had Davy's handwriting in it (fragments really are readable but faded. My brother has it now. I'm suing him for it (just kidding. Family joke). My dad was a big time history buff, as am I. So I grew up just being fascinated by the story, Davy himself, the bravery and the action. I've been there several times. It's funny but I always meet people that our genuinely related to me, but I've never met. Loved your vid.

    Adam, I am former law enforcement and I lived in Texas and I have been to the Alamo, but I like you historical tours of the Alamo very much. I wish you could do much more. Keep up the good work and give me a call when you come to San Diego and maybe I can assist you on some other related Tours of Old Town which is haunted and one of the oldest settlement in California.
    There seems to be a special "theme" in those 185 brave mean against 5,000 to 7,000 Mexican troops which are unbeatable odds, yet those early Americans fought anyway.
    I can relate as I am fighting the corrupt Government and I am only one person.....think about those odds...Right?
    It makes a Big difference when you are right no matter what.
    Too bad you didn;t take a fiber optic camera inside ....?
    I think there are many more "Artifacts" that have never been recovered, or that were stolen and just never returned.
    Still under contention is the Jim Bowie Knife, referred to as the Moore Bowie recovered by a Mexican soldier.
    What a story.
    Maybe you can get together with John Fitzen of Fitzen's knives in Utah? He's a really cool guy.

    This is what happened at the Alamo: Mexican federal army comes to San Antonio to disarmed armed illegals from the States. After the battle and rout, there laid 253 American insurgents and 60 dead Mexican soldiers who all died in a 30 minute battle. Davy Crockett surrendered to the Mexican soldiery, only to be executed moments later; Travis committed suicide at the north wall when he saw all was lost, and Bowie was hiding under his cot, and was slain in that manner. At least 100 Alamo defenders were killed OUTSIDE of the Alamo compound, as they tried to escape the battle - they were chased by down by Mexican cavalry and killed. A Mexican victory for all time! It's nice to see Texans of all stripes celebrate a Mexican victory every year!

      @michaelinhouston9086 Před 4 lety

      Not that much in the movies is true - funny thing is that the actual events of the entire Alamo battle are more interesting to me. A lot of what is in the Alamo movies is fictionalized but does give a version of reality so whether something is "true" becomes not that critical if you are looking for a broad vision of the story. Some of the same arguments are made about the movie "The Longest Day" - okay, so some of the stuff is not exactly true but it does give a broad impression of what occurred.

      Respect! Kids and adults running around filming literally everything (concerts etc) instead of actually taking in the moment at the time is disrespectful as it shows you're not giving it your whole self. Also inside locations like the Alamo it's distracting to other visitors that may consider it a somber place of reverence. Of course this is just the opinion of some and everything in life is open to interpretation because we all create our own realities!!

    I actually spat out my drink when Adam said "you almost fell into the water trying to pet a duck-"
    And Jacob screams "it was a pigeon!!"
    So freakin funny 😂😂😂

    Security... Don't you mean Barney Fife? Remember the Alamo! A shame that filming isn't allowed inside the Alamo. Also I wonder what the death flag looked like? Black flag perhaps? Awesome vlog Adam!

      It was a solid red flag and the musicians played Deguello . . . a flag and song used to indicate "no quarter".

      The gentleman at the door is a tour/info guide (where to park ur car, where to go eat, wat time does the Alamo close, ect.). The security wear Cowboy hats. And the Alamo is scared ground in the highest degree, on a scale of 1-10, the Alamo is like a 40. You remove your hats when you enter. Hope this helps.

      B Caldwell actually the person seen when the "security" disclaimer was mentioned was a tour guide. The Ranger guards are well dressed armed fit personnel above " barney fife".

    You know I've been reading, "Rich Dad Poor Dad" just to see some advice, and there is a great example of failure is with Texas. Even when Texan's fail they fail big, but don't worry they remember it! That was interesting to me.

    That second bread looks like cornbread. I have heard some in the south add sugar to the batter to sweeten it up.

    why would they expose the bones of the tomb for public to see? Seems kinda gruesome but I guess it was the early 1930's

    • @Snowwulf78
      @Snowwulf78 Před 7 lety +1

      The Headless Horseman people also used to do family photos with the dead family in Victorian era. It looks creepy with the whole family there with the corpse propped up between them

      People now are scared of death and try to avoid it, people were more understanding and did not think death was a taboo subject back then

      Most of the bodies were burned by Santa Anna, spread them all over the plaza. The monument there is called a cenotaph, means empty tomb.

    Great work Adam, and Jacob. This was a very interesting and entertaining vlog about San Antonio and specifically the historic Alamo, which is sacred ground. The history was well told with reverence, and the comic parts of Adam and Jacob the Carpetbagger singing was quite funny. It’s great to see how much fun you are both having! Cheers!
