You’re doing some thing right especially if you’re getting haters I get haters all the time they all help the channel grow in one way or another loved this video another place I wanna visit in document myself
I like the Rock. He’s got a place in movies just not this one. But if anyone is to blame it’s the writers and Dwayna for allowing it to be re-written that way. It was def NOT walking tall at all!
Buford was my aunt's first cousin. They grew up together in Tennessee. In my opinion, the first "Walking Tall" film was the best one, but Joe Don Baker is only 6'-2", while Buford was 6'-6". Bo Svenson, the actor who portrayed him in later films, is 6'-6" as well, but a Swedish-American actor didn't quite cut it as a southern sheriff.
I also used to go along the back roads of Fairfield County to explore the areas at times I will come across cemeteries which I would explore. In one I found an veteran of the War of 1812. I came across an abandoned old school house even
I was married to one of his cousins in 1982....He believed in foul play so did daughter. There was bragging about a hit...one night in a bar on Mississippi Gulf Coast. You don't mess around with the Dixie Mafia. As Jim Croce would sing....You don't tug on superman's cape...You don't spit in the wind...You don't pull the mask off the old lone ranger.....And you don't mess around with Jim ( them ). Very interesting video. Thanks.
I believe Buford wasn't drinking and driving. I believe he was murdered, because what all he tired put an end of everything was going on in the county. Someone messed with his car while he was at the state fair. Someone made sure he was dead. He was cut up,stabbed and shot . It takes a car accident to kill him, that's strange. He was after the people who killed his wife.RIP Buford
Whateva, he got anotha woman pregnant so he let them kill her and shoot him to make it look good. Grandpa said he be mo crooked than woman he shot in the back at shamrock
I don't believe he was drinking and driving either Buford was very adamant about drinking and driving I think the mafia finally got them sabotage is what I think it was and then they covered it up
Actually, my belief is, that car was a gift from the Tennessee governor, I believe before they delivered it, it was taken to a secret location where it was reengineered in a way that couldn't be detected by an inspection, and would fail at a certain speed..it was Sabatoged before it was presented to him as a gift..
@@wildestcowboy2668 your full of shit. I'm personally involved with this whole thing on a level you'll never know. You've formulated an opinion from your own imagination based on the movies and sound bites from the people who wanted to discredit him to begin with. This situation went all the way to the top of the Tennessee state government with high power elected officials who were personally involved the operation of the illegal gambling and human sex trafficking trade. Their called, The Dixie mafia. And they are actually bigger than most of your other ethnic mafias and just as dangerous. All Buford wanted, was to have his Town free from the corruption. No more, no less, and didn't get involved in other county's and city's problems with it. Your entitled to your opinion, but hopefully, my little bit of opinion here gave you more to think about. Burford Pusser was not corrupt, and yes, he liked to have a couple beers like most other people do. But, that doesn't make him corrupt. As far as getting the other woman pregnant, it wasn't the female at the shamrock hotel, so do your homework and hopefully you'll find out the rest of the story.
Thank u for showing us Mr pusser ( puh-sser ) is how his name is pronounced sir. I am a new sub and I love watching the graveyards and all the people that's passed on old home places.
There was 1 movie that came out about him that Brian Dennehy played as Buford. I think the name of it was "A Real American Hero"? Brian did a good job being Buford as well.
No, duh-wayne Johnson took the nick name given to Buford as a movie title, that's it. Nothing about that sucky movie related to any experience Buford went through.
I love your concept for this channel. Because its true... you never know what you'll find out there on...the back roads. Thank you so much for bringing it!
My grandmother met him in person at church and she talked to him I will always believe he was murderd rumored that his car was tampered with his breaks went out
I met him once at my uncles house when I was a teenager. I was sitting and he was standing, I thought I was going to break my neck looking up at him when he said Hi.... nice guy. His brother John used to own bars back in my hometown in Illinois. I also believe he was murdered.
Thank-you for sharing this story. May God Bless him and his family. May they Rest In Peace. Keep doing good and bless you to. Please be careful in your adventures.
Just came across your story here.. keep them coming..I enjoy bits of history.. especially in these time when a certain group of people are trying to change what we do have..so people as yourself, tell what we don't know.. appreciate your knowledge
It's nice to see that this great man has not been forgotten. So tragic that he and his wife were killed and his daughter died not too long ago also. Too bad his wife's kids from first marriage suspect he killed her. Thanks for doing the video.🙂
Buford Pusser was a hero or he was in with the criminal gang. Depends on who you talk to. As a bricklayer in Florence, Al I met a bricklayer 20 years older than me who went to high school with sheriff Pusser. He said there were rumors that the sheriff only busted those who would not pay him off and he closed shop on them with his “big stick” that refused to play by his rules. What I am saying is what I heard first hand from a man I worked with who knew Buford Pusser personally. As a kid Sheriff Pusser was my hero so I refuse to believe anything bad about him at all. I think he was a modern day Superman who set out to die taking care of his county. I will always believe he was the real life Andy Taylor from Mayberry cleaning up his town. I had family that went to the Tenn st line when I was a kid and I always waited up for them to get home drunk and tell the next “Buford Pusser” story. I could write a book and it would be a million seller of the stories I have.
When I saw the latest version of the movie "Walking Tall" the part at the very end where it said "In Honor Of Sheriff Buford Pusser" I instantly became very curious and I did hear a long time ago that Walking Tall the original was based on a true story, so I did a lot of reading about this very outstanding man. I mean My Goodness! He was one tough fearless individual who would stop at nothing, like there was no intimidating or bribing him, he sustained multiple injuries bullet wounds etc. and kept right on fighting at all cost and won the battle. Talk about a one man army. However, he was a real law inforcement police officer. I honor him with my deepest condolences to his family etc. May he rest in peace.... Greetings with honor from Canada
I met him when I was a kid , I was shooting fireworks at the shamrock motel in McNary in town and he stopped and said high and not to shoot them over the buildings really nice guy , my uncle Obey went to school with his daughter and was in school when they came to school when he got killed in accident , he was a great person rip sir you are a hero
His car was not tampered with it was to low to the ground what had happened was his car blew a tire Firestone had the wrong tires on the car. He broke his neck and died instantly
The remnants of the car are on display. I don't know if there was an accident reconstruction by experts to determine the cause of the accident. Was there a test for BAC? The accident diagram should show skid marks. Was speeding a factor? There are so many questions that need to be answered. I do believe that there is a strong possibility that the vehicle was tampered with. JB
When you go visit the home a very haunted ==but nice family sprites that alot of times aren't crazy about strangers being in their home but they know it pays the house bills == but DON'T mess with his bedroom in the house or esp. where his office was....Stuff will sometimes move on it's own by a ticted off hand . No one has ever been hurt though so far as I know. I saw the place before I had my channel. Brufford wanted his town and the family's all safe & doesnt every normal person want that? Sure. If you go stright down the hallway from the front door & the room all the way down and to the right that room is active. Try taking many ramdom pictures while you do the tour, you naver may know you might get some ghost shots when you look through the pictures latter.
Buford Pusser would've been an awesome actor, had he not been murdered. RIP To Buford and his family🙏🌹 One of America's Tragic Stories. In retrospect, " A man that meant what he said, and said what he meant."
I love ur channel the brief history of what gives me just enough information if I need or want to know more then I can always look it up when I'm not rushing around to get ready for work or taking care of my elderly parents. Ur awesome ty for keeping it real. BTW I had no idea his daughter discovered his accident... I guess u do learn something knew every day. 😊
First time watching one of your videos. I must say I really enjoyed it. You have a pleasant and easy on the ears voice. I did subcribe to your channel.
Great video. I remember seeing a movie when I was a kid years ago in England about that sheriff. Thanks for putting in the time and research and this video.
Even though this guy I'm about to mention didn't die in the south. He died where I currently live (Portland, Oregon). This guy was on the defensive line for the Oakland Raiders. His name was Lyle Martin Alzado. Visited his grave once. He's buried in River View Cemetery. Would love to have you do a vlog on him when you can! Loved your vlog on Buford!!!
Yes I really enjoy your videos and you are over 7 thousand subscribers now. Great so keep the videos coming. I did see the walking tall movie in the theaters in 1972 or so.
Thank you. When I filmed that we were so close to 5k and a few days later when it came out we were way past that. Thank you for the kind words and there are always places to go and things to show
Where he crashed is US64, which is called Buford Pusser Memorial Hwy now. That was probably a two lane when he was killed? They may have already 4 laned that part of it by then but I dont think so? As kind of a history fact, The Trooper who wrote the accident report on Buford, a few terms later became Sheriff of McNairy County.
Yeah 64 was 4 laned and reconstructed about 1998 or 99. It used to be kind of a spooky ride in an 18 wheeler, with all the sharp curves and hills. The 4 laned used to stop about half a mile before you get to the crash site traveling west from selmer.
Does anyone know where the graves of Melvin Kaplan (who played "Henry" on Alice), and Vic Taybeck, who played "Melvin" Sharples on Alice as well?. I LOVED both of them
Waterloo Alabama. Take county Rd 14 to Waterloo. Go by river up to cemetery. Turn back sharp left and u will see Ezz Culver huge grave. Behind his look toward river and u will see
I don’t believe that was his original tombstone. I’ve been to his grave in @ 1997. My friend Bob, who lived in Clifton, TN took me there. I remember it being shorter, also the stone was chipped up, where people had taken souvenirs of it. Also I remember in the house, his Bible was on an end table either in the living room or bedroom, I forget. Carl
He was murdered plain and simple. Pockets were deep back then and he was making them smaller. The coroner had his in someone's pocket as did the corrupt city and county officials.
My grandmothers brother was part of the Stateline mafia. Fact he said before he died that Pussers car was tampered with and that he was set up to be killed in front of his daughter but that she and her friends were a few minutes later that they had anticipated that is why she got there after he crashed instead of being there for him to crash into which was the initial plan.
What ever happened to the car he was killed in. I think it was a Corvette. I saw it in Carbo"s museum several years ago in Tenn . @ Dolleywood. 3 yrs ago I returned to Tenn and the Museum was gone as was his stick and other stuff. No one seems to know what happened to it. Do you know the whereabouts of items mentioned? Good video.
Loved this video. Great movie, saw it back in 1973. I too was in the Marine Corps 1973-1977. New subscriber and 1st time I've watched one of your videos. Semper Fi
Yes I have been A fan for A Long time Thank you for sharing your video with me You All Besafe an Well an strong Have All good days an nites from Roy 👍💪🙏❣️🌹👍
I enjoyed this so much. 😊 I’m an Australian and i first heard about Buford many years ago, when I watched A real American hero staring my hero Brian Dennehy. ❤️ I feel so bad for his daughter, fancy coming across your dad like that. Thank you for this video, ps does anyone know where Brian Dennehy is buried ? He died April last year, my own father died 3 weeks ago. 😔 Once again thank you, enjoyed hearing about Buford. ❤️ Jodie 🇦🇺
@@GPC9042 I have asked on a few different channels about Brian and nobody has responded until now, so thank you Gloria. I thought he may have a grave somewhere. I appreciate your response. I love Brian, greatest actor ever. ❤️Jodie 🇦🇺
Liking your travels and Tennessee is full of surprises I'm from Oklahoma but visited my nephew in knoxville a few years back there's an old prison there in Tennessee I wanted to see where it butted up to a mountain brushy creek maybe? Car broke down never made it
I'm with Texas Ray. Buford's last name and his daughter's name were not pronounced correctly. Narrator apparently didn't even watch the movie where he could have at least learned that.
Thank you yes I knew before Walking Tall not personally I watch the movie but I didn't know that the house and that car and the great sigh what happened to his daughter how did she die thank you again keep up the good work and Merry Christmas bye-bye
Buford's daughter Dwana was with him at the fair and she said he wasn't drinking. He wouldn't put her in danger like that. His daughter's name isn't Dawn. Her name is Dwana (pronounced Duwayna). Buford had a heart of gold when it came to children and the elderly.
I written a letter to Buford Pusser's Daughter, Dayna Pusser Garrison, before she died, informing of her Father Buford Pusser as a Icon to me. I told her about the Special Olympics Law Enforcement Torch Run in which they raise fundraising money for the Special Needs Athletes in which I am involved, for the Special Olympics. She responded to me saying, If my Father was alive today, He would had been honored to meet you.

The original walking tall movie was 100 times better than the remake with the rock playing Buford Pusser !!!!
The rock playing Buford was a joke should never been allowed it was stupid and I don’t even know how it was supposed to be a remake
I like the Rock. He’s got a place in movies just not this one. But if anyone is to blame it’s the writers and Dwayna for allowing it to be re-written that way. It was def NOT walking tall at all!
I didn't watch the remake.. The Rock playing that part was ridiculous to me. I'm from Alabama..
I like the rock2. Just not for that part.
The Rock's walking tall was not a biopic of Beaufort Pussar story... It was loosely based on the concept of Walking tall story line.
Thank you for your coverage of The late Sheriff Buford Pusser .
Buford was my aunt's first cousin. They grew up together in Tennessee. In my opinion, the first "Walking Tall" film was the best one, but Joe Don Baker is only 6'-2", while Buford was 6'-6".

Enjoyed yr story on Pusser. I Remember lines around the block waiting to see movie in 73.
He wasn't drinking and driving, the car was messed with and the 'bad guys' had everything 'set up' to get rid of him.
So true he wrecked because they messed with his vett while he was at the fair he was not drinking and driving
Agree no way they was gonna let him live they was keep on til he was dead he cost them folks alot of money
My grandmother met him in person at church and she talked to him I will always believe he was murderd rumored that his car was tampered with his breaks went out
*brakes, not “breaks!” Good Lord!!!
I met him once at my uncles house when I was a teenager. I was sitting and he was standing, I thought I was going to break my neck looking up at him when he said Hi.... nice guy. His brother John used to own bars back in my hometown in Illinois. I also believe he was murdered.

I love that town I was there yesterday my youngest son lives close to Bufords house
They didn't do a autopsy, that sounds like a cover upon his death.
I really liked the movie I saw years ago...he truly was a man that walked tall...
I'll never believe he was drinking
His car was sabotaged. Was what I understand and believe. Hell of a sheriff.
Very interesting man and the legend grows over time.. He was fearless and a righteous lawman... Great find! Thx a bunch for this!
I think his car was tampered with and they hide how he died by no autopsy.If he has driven those roads alot he knew about what was were.Great vid
His car was not tampered with it was to low to the ground what had happened was his car blew a tire Firestone had the wrong tires on the car. He broke his neck and died instantly
Awesome! One of the places I want to go, and to visit his grave.
The tour of the house it worth coming back for. They have his totalled vet in the basement.
I wanted to see that. It was a bummer it was closed. Good reason to go back. Really nice town and great views going there.
Thanks so much for the tour
Thanks for watching!
This was very interesting. Thank You for another Great video.👍❤

The remnants of the car are on display. I don't know if there was an accident reconstruction by experts to determine the cause of the accident. Was there a test for BAC?

I don’t believe that was his original tombstone. I’ve been to his grave in @ 1997. My friend Bob, who lived in Clifton, TN took me there. I remember it being shorter, also the stone was chipped up, where people had taken souvenirs of it. Also I remember in the house, his Bible was on an end table either in the living room or bedroom, I forget.

Loved this video. Great movie, saw it back in 1973. I too was in the Marine Corps 1973-1977. New subscriber and 1st time I've watched one of your videos. Semper Fi
Yes I have been A fan for A Long time Thank you for sharing your video with me You All Besafe an Well an strong Have All good days an nites from Roy 👍💪🙏❣️🌹👍
I enjoyed this so much. 😊
I’m an Australian and i first heard about Buford many years ago, when I watched A real American hero staring my hero Brian Dennehy. ❤️
I feel so bad for his daughter, fancy coming across your dad like that.
Thank you for this video, ps does anyone know where Brian Dennehy is buried ? He died April last year, my own father died 3 weeks ago. 😔 Once again thank you, enjoyed hearing about Buford. ❤️ Jodie 🇦🇺
Thank you for enjoying the video. Hope all is well down under
I liked Him too. He was cremated in New Haven,, Connecticut and family has ashes.
@@GPC9042 I have asked on a few different channels about Brian and nobody has responded until now, so thank you Gloria. I thought he may have a grave somewhere. I appreciate your response.
I love Brian, greatest actor ever. ❤️Jodie 🇦🇺
Love your channel...you are a great storyteller
My dad actually got to meet him before he got killed.
Liking your travels and Tennessee is full of surprises I'm from Oklahoma but visited my nephew in knoxville a few years back there's an old prison there in Tennessee I wanted to see where it butted up to a mountain brushy creek maybe? Car broke down never made it
Brushy Mtn is a awesome old prison that I can’t wait to film. Also the place where they developed the atom bomb is close by also
Daughter's name was "Dwana", not "Dawn".
Thank you..clad to see this..
.
This was great. I have a hazy recollection of him. 👏👏
Great video. You are close to Ripley Ms you might want to visit William Falkner.
Very soon we will be heading that way. Probably in the next week or 2
Thanks for another great video..enjoyed this..even though I think he was killed
He didn’t drink to my knowledge
You do great work I was just watching Walking Tall movie.
Thanks for the kind words.
a great man.
Interesting commentary. Semper Fi
I'm with Texas Ray. Buford's last name and his daughter's name were not pronounced correctly. Narrator apparently didn't even watch the movie where he could have at least learned that.
How about the story of the assassination of his wife, Pauline? And the months he spent in the hospital after that?
Enjoy all your videos 😀 very interesting 👍🏻
Hi 🙋🏽. I hope that you are doing well today, And I also hope that you AND your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving ‼️
It was a great thanksgiving. Hope yours was just as good!!
I love his videos very interesting
Thank you yes I knew before Walking Tall not personally I watch the movie but I didn't know that the house and that car and the great sigh what happened to his daughter how did she die thank you again keep up the good work and Merry Christmas bye-bye
Buford Pusser (Pronounced Puh-sir).
I like your videos. Thank you for sharing 👍
Roll Tide!
Buford's daughter Dwana was with him at the fair and she said he wasn't drinking. He wouldn't put her in danger like that. His daughter's name isn't Dawn. Her name is Dwana (pronounced Duwayna). Buford had a heart of gold when it came to children and the elderly.
I written a letter to Buford Pusser's Daughter, Dayna Pusser Garrison, before she died, informing of her Father Buford Pusser as a Icon to me. I told her about the Special Olympics Law Enforcement Torch Run in which they raise fundraising money for the Special Needs Athletes in which I am involved, for the Special Olympics. She responded to me saying, If my Father was alive today, He would had been honored to meet you.
You do such an awesome job on your video's. Thank you for sharing. 😊👏❤
Thank you for the kind words.
How about Tex Ritter or Babe Zaharias graves?
I can’t wait to get out to Texas and do those.
We stopped in there in 2005 and we had a very nice lady give us a tour. Is his patrol car sitting out in view for people to stop and see ?
Car was not outside the house. Seems like everything was in the house and I didn't see anything in town about the car. Could have missed it though.
oh wow......remenber the movie about him years ago
I've been there. His wife and my dad were both born on February 27, 1934.

@@susanmiller959 Thank You For The Correction I Will Not Let My Mom See How I Wrote His Name, Cause For Her Me Growing Up I Was Able To See And Hear About All These Classic Artists And Hollywood Members For Years.
Audie was in the 3rd Infantry Division if that helps.
