    This is a superb docu. Two impossibly attractive outlaws who actually existed. Butch's mum was a Geordie; his dad was from Preston, Lancashire, of all places. Several accounts say he survived...I'd love to think so...

      The Legend Lives On:
      There's an update to this story that the History Channel did an article on:
      UPDATED: SEP 8, 2020 | ORIGINAL: AUG 22, 2019
      "In the early 1990s, two bodies believed to be Cassidy and Sundance were exhumed in Bolivia. DNA tests conducted by Clyde Snow, one of the nation's foremost forensic anthropologists determined they were NOT Cassidy and Sundance.
      According to Bill Betenson, his family knew exactly where Cassidy was buried after his alleged real death in 1937: “My great-grandmother, Butch’s little sister Lula, was very clear. She said that where he was buried, and under what name, was a family secret; that he was chased all his life and now he had a chance to finally rest in peace - and that’s the way it must be.”

    enjoyed this video great story telling, learned many things previously that was unknown to me. The one error was the colt 45 that he shown and ( was Cassidys favorite weapon), was a Smith & Wesson top break, either a Russian or Scholfield model.
