Just wanna say I miss Timeline, that was so great. I still look for a new video every Sunday.
I agree, Weird History Needs to bring back Timeline.
I agree 1960’s is next i believe
@@Drifblim066 Either that or The 2000s
I was just thinking I hadn't seen one in a while
Agreed! 😊👌

and FRENCH FRIES 🍟!!
FRENCH FRIES!!! 🍟
Two that were executed and deserve a mention are Edward " Ned " Kelly and Harry " The Breaker " Morant . Ned Kelly was an Australian bushranger , who was sentenced to hang in 1880 for the murders of 3 police officers and a police informant . His last words before he took the 6 ft plunge were " Such is Life " . Harry Morant was an Australian soldier during the Boer War who was sentenced to death by firing squad , for the deaths of 9 Boer P.O.Ws and 3 civilians . Refusing to be blindfolded and looking straight at the firing squad , " The Breaker " defiantly called out " Shoot straight, you bastard's ! dont make a mess of it "
As skewed or socially acceptable as they might be, I would imagine that anyone's intentional "last words" would come from their view of their own mortality.
But no matter how "profound" or defiant a person's last words seem to them, they just end up as one in a stack of last words in some compilation and life goes on.
8:38 That is a hardcore Spaghetti-Os fan!
Cruel Summer Spaghetti-Os that I made was amazing too, I am sure he would be a fan!
Fun video, compelling, and rich. I would love to see a video about the move standoff that happened in West Philadelphia in the 1980s, spoiler alert, the Philadelphia police got the last word, ha ha ha. Keep up the great work and great content.👍👍
At least, they've been given the right to be heard before dying
Yeah, it’s a lot more generous than they were to their victims. I doubt they let their victims do anything except plead for their lives.
nice. thank you
I liked this video. Can you make a part two? And could you add some last words of Nazi criminals before they died? You forgot Gacy and Bundy.
I can answer Gacy. He didn’t say anything. He’s quoted as saying some swears, but I interviewed Dave Hackmeister for a college course and he was personally invited by Gacy to the execution and said he didn’t say anything when asked for final words. Dave was a detective on that case and retired to my small little home town to be one of the cops. Super cool guy
9:40 Monster was one of the most important movies I watched during my two years at the Master's Program at the University of Missouri.
Charlize Theron, one of my favorite actors, won the Academy Award for Best Actress and the Gold Globe Award for Best Actress in a Drama.
I am going to watch the videos:
x Last Meals of Famous Death Row Inmates (1st Recommendation, third time watching)
x What It's like to Live on Death Row (2nd Recommendation, second time watching)
x What It's Like To Be In Solitary Confinement
x Inspiring Stories About People Who Escaped The Holocaust
x The Stanford Prison Experiment Was One of the Most Disturbing Studies Ever
I don't plan to commit any crimes, especially not ones that would land me on death row or solitary confinement...but uhh, I do prefer my own company most of the time anyway, so...
I mean, John Wayne Gacy's final words were, "Kiss my ass!" So there's that.
They did not, indeed, come back.
Yet their names never left
How can we be sure?
Notice how damn near all of them are momma's boys.
Yeah, it’s weird. Mama tried, I guess.
@@lyndaalbrecht7006 Except she didn't.
I have a friend who serves as a Sherriff's deputy, and another who used to work as an assistant secretary to the local DA: they both tell me it's darkly hilarious how many older moms are in prison right now. What makes it funny is it's the same cycle:
1. Son gets arrested, usually on a felony.
2. Mom barges down to the police station in a blind desperate attempt to free him.
3. Mom accidentally confesses to conspiracy/accessory to whatever son did, and mom gets a sentence too while sonny gets 25 to life.
@@kennethwebber8159 Yeah, good points. I agree with you. 😎
Wait, what about Larry the Cable Guy? His last words shook me. SHOOK

Eating ANOTHER Weird History Halloween candy!
Eating a roll of Necco*†...while watching this Weird History video!
* Halloween Candy is from the Weird History video "Stories About Your Favorite Halloween Candy"
† I snagged it in the candy section of Tractor Supply Co.
The New England Candy Company is still making them?
@@thegreencat9947 The Spangler Candy Company makes them now.
@@btetschner Thank you. I love Neccos....especially the chocolate ones.
@@thegreencat9947 I will keep my eyes open for the chocolate ones, never had them before...

Spaghetti-O’s are Campbells, not Chef Boyardee 8:45. ;)
The Mandela effect
LOL, OMG, that baked apple comment was hilarious.. I think this is what you call 'dark humour?'. Im not ussually into that kind of humour but that was too good..
Saints have some interesting exit lines. There was St. Lawrence, whom Vikings suspended over a fire on a spit for ticking them off (they had demanded that he lead them to his church's treasures and he obligingly led them to the leprosarium.) He called out "Turn me over--I think I'm done on this side." This earned him a place as the patron saint both of comedians and cooks.
St. Thomas More tripped on the stairs up to the platform where he would be beheaded for "treason" and jokingly asked the executioner to see him up to the top safely, but said he would fend for himself on the way down. When kneeling before the block he asked that his beard (grown in prison) be moved out of the way, saying, "My beard has committed no treason." His final words, though, were no joke: "I die the King's good servant, but God's first."
1:37 ha! What about his victim he killed that was cruel and unusual.
I totally get the spaghettio thing the man knows what he likes and that was his last ever meal.
The public demands more Timeline ❤
Yo, you gotta make this a series! It was super interesting. Do more!! Start from like Assyrian, Babylonian, Egyptian, Mesopotamia, Rome, Greece and then move into the wars of the Catholics ( 3.4.5th cen popes/emperor’s- Bloody Mary, Phillip of Spain) against Protestant’s and Jews and Protestants against Catholics ( James 1) and Jews. It’s super sad but I know there are good quotes and statements of superb faith cuz I’ve read many of them.
8:28 that hair!😂😂😂😂
Aileen Wuornos shouldn't have been executed. At the age of 13 she was homeless, pregnant with her own grandfather's child. When she was sentenced to death she was clearly insane and had been for a while. Yes she killed those men, but there were mitigating circumstances and it should have been life in prison for her, not death.
Lifetime commitment to a mental hospital. Evil and insane but understandably so.
There have been many women who were knocked up by grandpa at a young age, and didn't commit any murders. No excuses.
Jeffrey Dahmer was a cannibal, killer and rapist. Aileen was executed, he, for example, wasn't.
3:04 - 3:35 Giggleworthy. Dark, but giggleworthy.
6:34 And then he became a swiss cheese humanoid!
I think Warnos was the only one I knew about. What about Ted Bundy? He must have said something.
It was rumored that the person who "threw the switch" on Bundy was a woman. On purpose. ⚡️🤯⚡️💃

3:03 I was an electrician's assistant and worked with a electrician that was nicknamed Sparky.
"Sparky pull the plug" fr scenario
@@chromicapop4595 Is that a reference to the Arizona State Sun Devil's mascot?
That's what all electricians are referred to in Australian slang.
You don't say you're going to call an Electrician, you say you're going to call a Sparky.

My fave last words are from John Staats, famous American outlaw, "let 'er Rip" right before he was hung.
I can only watch the weird history channel if it has the original weird history guy! ❤️🤘🤘🤘🤘
How long ago did the 'original guy' leave? I'm watching a video that is over a year old and sounds the same as this guy narrating this video.
👍🏻👍🏻
Charlize Therron did an amazing job portraying that crazy woman in Monster!
Wasn't Gary Gilmore's final words.... "Let's do it!"
Sort of. When they asked him for last words, he said, "Let's do it." Then the chaplain adomintered last rites, and the prison doctor put the hood on him. Gilmore said, "Dominus vobiscum." The chaplain replied, "Et cum spiritu tuo." After that, he was shot.
It's the last thing that they said.
Coming from a UA-cam channel that did a nice video on chef boyardee you guys should know that spaghettiOs was Campbell's (or Franco American brand of Campbell's) not chef boyardee.
Surely someone said "Oh no, not again." It would certainly get people thinking.
That's making me think of Fallen with Denzel and John Goodman. That movie made me really appreciate "Time is on My Side" by the Stones.
I'm fourth! 4 is my lucky number! Love this channel!
Did Gary Gilmore have any last words? Perry Smith and/or Richard Hickock (In Cold Blood)? How about Ted Bundy? I think he said something like “Give my love to my family.” A little late, I’d say.
Idea #3: A Last Wordsmith could research the recorded last words of people.
SpaghettiO's are not a Chef Boyardee product. They're owned by Campbell's now, but were made by Franco-American for years and years. That said, this was an interesting episode. Hope you didn't get any other easy facts wrong.
I hope these will be my last words (some years from now): Thank you! 🔚
it's rumored in 1945 the Mayor of Hiroshima's last words were "what tf was that?"
He didn't speak English though.
4:31 There are some similarities between that image and Andy Warhol's art design style.
4:17 Stop gurgling toilets.
Hey y'all 😮
Ah the real narrator again, good.
That 💩 has gotten old, he has another channel he runs and he deserves to rest his voice.
@@blackpoptart4781 is that other channel a history channel? is he always on it? if so gimme gimme gimme the url.
He just needed a pay raise and once the channel heard the feedback on the other voice; they gave it.
Would be curious if Saddam Hussein was allowed and/or offered any final words.
Go watch the video of that again. He didn't have a chance to say anything!

I just love Josh's super agressive responses towards other people on the recepies 😂
Rip Eileen.
' I' ll be back'. Umm, no you wont lol🧐
Killdozer????
RIP THOSE WHO HAD NOT THE DEFENSE.
Aileen did not deserve the death penalty. She was just defending herself.
Aileen Wuornos
Don't forget John Albert Burks' last statement before his execution. The RAIDERS are going all the way y'all, that's it.
This video only worked because of the narrator. Are you listening Weird History?
Aileen at least managed to watch Terminator 2 Judgement Day
Where did this word "normalcy" come from?
I hear it being used often recently. 😅
I am pretty sure it's not even a word.
It should be "normality".
I give up. Let's all just make up our own words.
05:41. Barbara Graham was portrayed in movies *twice.* First, by Susan Hayward in "I want to live!" (1958), who *got an Oscar for it,* and second, by Lindsay Wagner in "I want to live!" (1983 TV movie). The idea is that Graham was innocent, and, if you check how she was convicted, she might have been.
How come that you missed this striking popular culture bit?
Yes. She was executed in 1955 with Emmett Perkins and Jack Santo. In 1960 it came out that John True, the chief prosecution witness, said "She was just a woman with Mister Perkins." True took immunity. At the trial that statement True made was not produced and instead True testified she was in the plan with Perkins, Santo and him and at the murder. Barbara Graham refused immunity and so prosecutors tricked her under duress when she was told by her attorney he couldn't find her two witnesses, and the Chief Prosecutor authorized and collaborated on a book in 1961 with a journalist and in that book they admitted that what prosecutors did to Barbara Graham was "underhanded." Barbara Graham was innocent. Her comment in court - "Have you ever been desperate? Do you know what that is?!" was made to the chief prosecutor because her attorney couldn't find her two witnesses. Prosecutors had found out her attorney couldn't find her two witnesses and then tricked her knowing she was so desperate. The research is all in Kathleen A. Cairns' book. And it sounds as if you have researched her trial yourself. Best wishes.
Barbara Graham was innocent. It came to light that in a statement not produced at the trial John True, the chief prosecution witness who took immunity stated on June 4th, 1953 about Barbara Graham that the first time he met her "I seen her; she was just a woman with Mister Perkins" at a motel just before the conspirators, True, Perkins and Santo went to a meeting on March 9th to conclude making the plan. At the trial in August, 1953 True said she was at the meeting and in the plan. That statement in which True said "she was just a woman with Mister Perkins" at the motel was never produced at the trial and at the trial True lied he met her first on March 7th with Perkins and Santo and they discussed the plan. By changing the date he first met her, that way he falsely included her in the plan, and that way he framed her by making her one of the conspirators. In 1954 after she had been convicted, True told journalist Bernice Freeman of The San Francisco Chronicle that before the meeting on March 9th "She was around." Not in the plan. In prison, prosecutors had an undercover police officer gain her trust and trick her under duress into making a so-called admission when prosecutors found out her attorney had told her he couldn't find her two witnesses. That was why she said in court "Have you ever been desperate? Do you know what that is!" In 1961 the Chief Prosecutor in collaboration with Bill Walker, a journalist, admitted what they did to her when they trapped her to get the so-called admission was "underhanded." In the total context of what she said to the undercover officer and taking into consideration the time True said they were all in the house when the murder happened from when True said they went to the house, she was outside the time True said she was in the house. Barbara refused immunity. True took immunity. She was innocent.
"The duality of killers"? What is so dual-natured about "I love my family" but also "I hate the people who are killing me"? That sounds pretty normal to me. Even if we think the execution is justified, it doesn't mean the person in the chair is going to be happy. Actually, "tell my mom I love her" is pretty sympathetic, and you're trying to make it sound "deranged"? Wha?
This is grotesque. You dont have to do the voices.
Oh look, it's Karen.
Fun Fact: Criminals do not die by the hands of the law. They die by the hands of other men.
love your videos but every time i see W H, i see Waffle House
One most horrifing was blackman "I'm innocent man, find the real killer." 1960s-70s Apartly is was local law enforcement need a scape goat who killed the person and pinned blamed it on him. Many years later when, and foristics and patterned apared they caught the real mini killer.
There is no proof Crowley actually said that.
Unfortunately Aileen Wuornos did come back… In the spirit of every femcel
She at one point was married to a millionaire. Bet you didn't know that, did you? How is that a femcel?

The good narrator is here on this one😊
