This is one of the best cumulative Bonnie and Clyde documentaries on YouTube

bonnie and clyde spent two nights in my childhood home, before robbing the town bank, it was a boarding house back in the day. the house has since been demolished, the town historians also tried to declare it a historic site while we were still living in it.

I believe this was the best video on Bonnie and Clyde. It covered so much of their crime spree. Thank you for your hard work.

As a bonus, you give us two views of the Texas School Book Depository Building while in Dallas. Thanks for the video tour. Very informative.

By far the best Bonnie and Clyde video I've seen. Well done! 👏

The Dabbs Railroad Hotel and B&B in Llano, Texas, is renowned as a historic hideout for Bonnie and Clyde during their 1930s crime spree. Located on the Llano River.

we lived in a home 1.5 blocks from the garage apt. in Joplin when I was nine years old and in 2nd grade. Now I am 70. We used to ride our bikes in the storm drains under Joplin.

Excellent video. Thank you for posting it!

Wow, this video took a lot of time and effort. Thank you! I have to agree with you about the difference between how they were portraited as I as growing up, versus the cold, hard reality. My opinion was never that they were heroes or anything, but now I view them as basically being void of decency. Why the gang kept getting pardons is a real curiosity. I wonder if that's been documented?

Wow, what a great documentary. I applaud the time spent in research and traveling. Great job, thanks!

This video was so in depth. Thank you so much for taking the time to visit all of these locations across the country. It was so awesome to see especially for those of us who will never get the opportunity to do a trip like this to see all of the locations.

This past weekend I visited Gibsland, LA. I have to say I absolutely enjoyed the museum and ordered Bonnie’s last BLT sandwich. Everyone was very kind and the owner was amazing with his cat lounging on the counter. If you ever have the chance to make it to Gibsland, LA PLEASE go. I also stopped at the memorial site and the flowers.

Amazing story and video as you traveled quite a bit to complete the saga of Bonnie & Clyde. I really didn't realize how young they were when they died until the very last part of your story. I think it would be fit to relocate either Bonnie or Clyde and have them buried side by side. I did view the Bonnie & Clyde death car at the Primm Valley Casino & Resort a few years ago outside Las Vegas. It's the real deal and very eerie standing next to the car where they died. Lots of bullet holes and probably no way they would have survived that ambush.

This is by far the most impressive and thorough deep dive into the Barrow Gang history ever made. 20 years ago I spent almost a full year in exhaustive research on the gang (big thanks to John Neal Phillips' books) for a film screenplay and I couldn't come close to the amount of raw info you've accumulated here. I did visit the Johnson house briefly in Temple before it was torn down. This must have taken a long time to complete and any B&C enthusiast as I would appreciate all the effort you've done for this. Well done and thank you.

Thank you so much for all the travel and peek at the sites. Very well done, most of us will never get to visit these sites, so appreciate the video.

I Enjoyed The Story And The Video. Great Job

You know all of the other content creators would've turned this into an 50-part series. This is by far the most comprehensive video on these two. To the point, great narration. It should be a go to for anyone making trips to these locations.
