Greetings Dear Sir or Madam, I have a great admiration for Buffalo Bill Cody, Wild Bill Hickock and other pioneers who forged the Old West. I also had the pleasure of having as a friend, one of Buffalo Bill Cody's direct descendants. The Old West was America's golden age. Thank you for sharing this nostalgic and historic memory of American history. My Warmest Regards from the Historic Old West State of Arizona. Álvaro Guevara Vázquez, American Composer BMI.
50% playback speed is just about right. The size of the arena must have made it difficult for many people to see the individual acts. Remarkable that such a huge operation was portable. I can't think of anything today that compares.
2:21 Now that is fascinating. A 19th century pile driver. Mechanisation in progress, right there! We've come a long way since then, but nonetheless it is very interesting to see some of the tools and machines our ancestors used in the late 19th century.
Even though it was called the "Wild West Show", it featured the best horsemen of the world, including the Native Americans, Mexican vaqueros, Argentine gauchos, Russian cossacks, Arabian horsemen, & many others.It must have been spectacular.
Bill Cody thought BIG and was always ambitious to do more than the year before. He brought to so many horsemanship from a wide range of cultures to audiences here and abroad. And before film, and besides pulp novels, he was really the one responsible for embellishing and popularizing various aspects of the frontier and the old West, whereas late 19 century Westerners began it imitate them, blurring the distinction between actual traditions and wildly exaggerated ones.
Paid in Royalties to have the pleasure of sharing the Wild West with everyone. Lets not go there. Never anywhere in the US, is there a parade like this Buffalo Bill display. 👍🎉🐎🤠
What a great showmen wee need him now the show was in Dundee 1904 beside the tay Bridge, and herculese den arbroath ,home of founder of buick motors, lol ,the show toured by train ,❤❤
Fantastic, thanks so much! More exciting than the Super Bowl. Wild horses, semi-wild Indians, real vaqueros; What a treat for the crowds in the cities.
@@Freerangemeggs Watch out, someone will call you a "triggered snow flake" for calling an entire race wild in a negative light because of old western films.
Don't think it would be allowed for any other member of the group to grow a beard. Another approval of B.B.'s showmanship. Because of his characteristic looks he would be immediately recognizable.
At least when the natives were around, you could fish any river or lake and hunt buffalo eat grass fed meat. Sad thing is today we contaminated the environment. You can't find a river or lake without microplastics, pfas, pfos, industrial chemicals, etc. We should learn a thing or two for the native Americans regarding preserving nature.
There was a few. 1898, 1902 and 1910 he traveled to Europe for 8 years. I’m pretty sure 1883 was his first Wild West Show, he lived in a time that only the show and people who lived in that moment could act out. He was part of Custer’s last stand/Battle of Big Little Horn which ever side of history you choose to side with. I am on my ancestors side but this is a cool part of history that brought the dream forward..
Buffalo Bill Cody earned his nickname by hunting and killing over 4,000 buffalo, Buffalo meat that went to the U.S Calvery. The same Buffalo that the Indians of the planes depended on for survival. Then to top it off, he exploited the Indians in his wild west show. He used Cheif Sitting Bull like a dancing bear.
Buffalo Bill did kill 4000 bison to provision the army, but that was at a time when there were still millions, so he did not cause the near extinction. He did participate as a scout & Indian fighter, but later became friends with them & the show allowed them to provide for their families. Sitting Bull was a friend, who travelled with the show and became a celebrity who sold his autographs & gave his money to the poor children that he saw in cities, both in the U.S. & around the world. When he left the show & returned to the reservation, it was the "tribal police" probably at the behest of the U.S. Army, who murdered Sitting Bull.
What a minute.. he did better as he got older so why did you fail to tell that part? With Knowledge comes wisdom.. He may have “exploited” a lot of atrocities that existed but Cody has Sitting Bulls head bonnet.. not too many Caucasians can prove their walk, journey, path. This is history baby.. 😂 whether you like it or not. It will not change to fit the ugly I read. The man’s legacy has been used as a tool of learning. You say what you will. Sitting Bull adopted Annie Oakley so maybe you should know Custer’s last stand or the Battle of Little Big Horn Relative.. which Cody partook in.. Sheez..
@@thejenr8tr922 That is correct! The Indians even travelled to Europe with Buffalo Bill Cody, and brought their families. And it is a sad truth of betrayal of Sitting Bull’s death in front of his family and friends. I have read that Sitting Bull’s circus horse (I forgot the name) started dancing when he heard the fatal shots because he must have thought it was time to perform. I guess it was all very surreal.

My Great Grand Father was the Lasso Expert in the film, his name was Vicente Oropeza
wow very cool
Very cool
Buffalo Bills sister Martha Cody was my great grandmother!

This must have been such an incredible sight to behold live.
Now that's really great footage even by 2022 b&w standards.

The native americans look awesome. I'd pay to see this
Amazing footage to watch. Wish I could go back in time and watch one of these shows.
I guess finding this video is pretty close.
Even though it was called the "Wild West Show", it featured the best horsemen of the world, including the Native Americans, Mexican vaqueros, Argentine gauchos, Russian cossacks, Arabian horsemen, & many others.It must have been spectacular.
Was that an Aussie flag?! This is amazing,thanks for the extra info!

How much the Indians get paid?

Never anywhere in the US, is there a parade like this Buffalo Bill display. 👍🎉🐎🤠
I've read that all of the performers were paid the same, regardless of sex or race. Cody was really advanced in his attitudes about equality.
Awesome to see a show of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show who would have thought it would be on film from way back then.
What a great showmen wee need him now the show was in Dundee 1904 beside the tay Bridge, and herculese den arbroath ,home of founder of buick motors, lol ,the show toured by train ,❤❤
Wonderful to watch this. Fascinating to watch. Thank you for posting this,

stfu calling them wild do your research inconsiderate af
@@Freerangemeggs Watch out, someone will call you a "triggered snow flake" for calling an entire race wild in a negative light because of old western films.
@@Freerangemeggs Also adding on, they'll probably say something like "but what about white people" or some shit.
Wild is a bad word?
“semi-wild” are you serious? “Indians” weren’t and aren’t wild animals to be tamed, they were and are real people
This is absolutely great footage to watch !
Absolutely fascinating footage thanks for posting it
Amazing footage.
The west was never the same without Buffalo Bill
Love the Show from Cody°!
I think this is the first time I've seen a show. I Enjoyed it. Trying to find footage of LF Foster.
Love this.
Wow beautiful thank you

Totally awesome...thanks!!

He took a liking to my Mom and Uncle when they were just kids. He gave them a pony.
Outstanding.
Buffalo Bill Iowa !
Roger That !
They all look very nice
As a Pan African, it is hard for me to accept this show. As a Historian, I'm glad to see this vid and the people involved.
Fabulous! Many thanks!
Wow, just wow!
Man, staged or not, the sound of 40 native men cutting loose war cries had to be spine-tingling.
Or maybe this ua-cam.com/video/oZviaxRhogw/v-deo.html
Nice, very Nice 👏
Me gustó mucho gracias
For most of these poeple its like watching something from mars lol
Thank you me Dream is real the Vioce from Bill!
Bellissimo mi piacerebbe vedere lo spettacolo che fu fatto a Roma nel 1890 con i butteri che vinsero la sfida nella doma dei cavalli augusto imperiali
This is a buffa load (pun intended) of information!
The American Indians look very nice
How come they didn’t win?
I am kin
How come I see 2 different years.. 1901 and 1910...how many parades were there..

5:14 that one guy messed up. Very unfortunate the (probably) one time when there was a camera there to film them.
What you mean?
@@HardKore5250 back center right. His weapon lands upside down
@@Kris_Toffer It's so noticeable when everyone else is perfect... just couldn't stick the landing 😂
The Indians rode really long.
Exploitation in grand style!!!
Still better than life on the reservation.
He sho brought a lotta injuns with ‘im, dang!
Paid the Indians 60$ a week 😎
@@AaronRowland-y5w But weren’t they enemies?
Was this before the United States?
No
@@dieselram05 How you know?
@@HardKore5250 US began in 1776. This was 1910.
@@yidiandianpang you don't think they filmed it in 1775? don't you?

Really weird and somehow very sick.

Pretty sad how we killed the buffalo and took a whole culture and way of life from Native Americans and then made entertainment out of it.

Then to top it off, he exploited the Indians in his wild west show. He used Cheif Sitting Bull like a dancing bear.
You know he paid them right and they accepted it.
