    One of the things that makes this scene so powerful is that Doc was the first to get up and run into the river after him. It pairs beautifully with his statement later about Wyatt being his (possibly only) friend.

      Hate to burst your bubble, OneBiased, but the actual shootout at the watering hole didn't go like this at all. When the outlaws (led by Sheriff Behan) began firing on Wyatt Earp's posse.... They all, including Doc Holliday, ran for their lives. They all rode over the nearby rise, leaving Earp to defend himself. As in the movie, (and they got this sort of right) Curly Bill was walking toward Earp, who was struggling to get his twelve-gauge out of his saddle pocket. He was turning and twisting, which probably actually went in his favor, because the buckshot from Curly Bill's gun went through Earp's coat, but never wounded him. Earp finally got his shotgun down, aimed it at Curly Bill and shot him dead. Then he drew a pistol and fired it, and luck was with him again....he wounded one of the members of Behan's posse, outlaw Johnny Barnes. (Who later died of his wound). Then somehow, Earp was able to grab his horse and ride away from the watering hole without getting shot. Meanwhile, Doc Holliday and the others stayed well out of range of the Behan posse fusillade of bullets. A fool would call that cowardice, but actually Holliday and the others were doing the only right thing to save themselves. The movie version, where Doc is right beside Earp firing at the bad guys is the one you wished might have happened, but unfortunately, real life is NOT Hollywood. Also, I might add, the end of the movie when Wyatt Earp visits Doc Holliday in the Glenwood Springs Sanatorium never took place. What really happened is Doc Holliday, a southerner, called Wyatt Earp a "Jew lover." (Josephine Marcus, Earp's girlfriend, was Jewish). Earp and Holliday were never close again, and Earp didn't find out Holliday had died until months later.

      I have always loved that exchange. The most underrated two lines in a movie packed with great lines that have been quoted a thousand times. Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday naturally gets all the love, but for my money, Kurt Russell's Wyatt Earp has the single most badass line in the entire movie:
      "You die first, get it? Your friends might get me in a rush, but not before I make your head into a canoe, do you understand?" Nope, he ain't bluffing.

      in the script the two cowboy survivors get back to the cowboys camp and they tell Ringo that they shot Wyatt Earp "a dozen times" and he just kept coming and killed Curly Bill.
      Ringo tells the panicky cowboys "He's just a man." the cowboy responds "You didn't see his face!" Ringo stares him dead in the eyes and says "You see my face, don't you?" he shoots both cowboys dead and vows to the rest that Earp and all his friend die.

    What is insane is that this REALLY happened. Earp ran shooting in the river and every single shot the Cowboys fired at him was a miss, including Curly Bill's. Earp killed Brosius, and broke the morale of the remaining Cowboys.
    This is not movie plot armor - it actually happened like this.

      This is what was said to have happened, but unfortunately they didn't have cameras back then that could record it.
      It's not totally implausible though, because they had run out of ammo on their rifles and were shooting at him with their revolvers, which are already terribly inaccurate. Add to that the panic and disbelief from seeing a guy charging at you with a shotgun and it's not hard to see how a small army of people could shoot at him and all miss.

He seemed to have good pinpoint accuracy during the gunfight against the Mexican policemen at the wedding in the beginning of the film. Yet he suddenly has terrible aim when he goes up against Wyatt Earp. He was only a few feet away and Wyatt wasn't even shooting back until Curly ran out of bullets and decided to use his shotgun. Not too surprising when you think about plot armor.

Curly Bill wasn't as fortunate. He screamed & fell dead backwards as Wyatt's shotgun blew his chest open. Number years later Bat Masterson would write, "Wyatt Earp didn't know what fear was." An exaggeration perhaps? I don't know, but Wyatt did seem to live up to that & a charmed life also as he was never once hit or wounded.

      This is where I pop in to tell the tale of Sgt. Maj. Bradley Kasal during Operation Phantom Fury in 2004. In a firefight in a house in Fallujah, although wounded by seven 7.62x39mm rounds and hit by more than 43 pieces of hot fragmentation from a grenade while using his body to shield an injured fellow Marine, Kasal refused to quit fighting and is credited with saving the lives of several Marines during the U.S. assault on insurgent strongholds in Fallujah in November 2004. By the time he was carried out of the house by LCpl Chris Marquez and LCpl Dane Shaffer, Kasal had lost approximately 60 percent of his blood. The photograph of Kasal, taken by photographer Lucian Read - blood-soaked and still holding his M9 pistol and KA-Bar fighting knife - being helped from the building by fellow Marines, has become one of the iconic pictures of the war. His navy cross citation reads: "When First Sergeant Kasal learned that Marines were pinned down inside the house by an unknown number of enemy personnel, he joined a squad making entry to clear the structure and rescue the Marines inside. He made entry into the first room, immediately encountering and eliminating an enemy insurgent, as he spotted a wounded Marine in the next room. While moving towards the wounded Marine, First Sergeant Kasal and another Marine came under heavy rifle fire from an elevated enemy firing position and were both severely wounded in the legs, immobilizing them. When insurgents threw grenades in an attempt to eliminate the wounded Marines, he rolled on top of his fellow Marine and absorbed the shrapnel with his own body. When First Sergeant Kasal was offered medical attention and extraction, he refused until the other Marines were given medical attention. Although severely wounded himself, he shouted encouragement to his fellow Marines as they continued to clear the structure. "

    This is why Wyatt Earp is a famous out-lawman. During the fight at the OK Corral, he was the only one who walked away unscathed. Morgan, Virgil and Doc were injured, and the cowboys on the other side were all killed. Their original intention while walking to the field of battle was to disarm and arrest the cowboys. They never intended to shoot or kill them. But they did what they had to, in order to defend themselves. As for the fight depicted in this scene, the two groups met completely by accident. They weren’t looking for each other at all. It also happened in real life in a similar way it does in the movie. Wyatt walked right into the line of fire and was never touched by a single shot. In other words, Wyatt Earp was the badass of the Old West. Wyatt Earp: The Original Badass.

      Can confirm, tested (many years ago) with black powder percussion revolvers, modern cartridge revolvers, and various semiautomatic pistols.
      You either need lots of practice or unusual talent to hit much of anything (reliably) outside of perhaps twenty feet or so - and in many cases, the same situation applies at any distance greater than that where “they *wear* the soot of your gun,” e.g. powder-burn range.

One chief was an old man of the Shawnee who told Washington that he knew that Washington had been destined for great things. During the French and Indian War, Washington was a young officer under Braddock when they were ambushed by the French and their Indian allies. The French wore buckskin and blended into the forest while the British wore red uniforms thus were easy targets. The chief related how they first shot the British officers off their horses, all save one, this young officer rode along the line of regulars and was continually shot at but could not be brought down either the shooter missed or their rifle misfired. All the Shawnee warriors agreed later that the Great Spirit protected him for some reason. That young officer was Washington.

      This actually happened in real life. Not the "NO" stuff, but walking out in the open during this gunfight and he wasn't hit.

    Goddamnit I love me Epic Last Stand trope. The way he says NO to himself before going out there and lighting everyone up just gives me the chills. So forceful.

      Some other commenter said something about denial of fear. Not the absence of it but literally saying no to being afraid at least for the moment and to do what has to be done. So it was maybe like he was saying no to the outlaws or even to himself to his own fear.

    It's total bullshit Val Kilmer didn't at least get nominated for Best Supporting Actor that year and history will repeat its self if Kurt Russell doesn't (at least) get nominated for the same award for "The Hateful Eight" at this year's Academy Awards.
    Two extraordinary actors who will probably never get their due.

      "In some form" would be the operative words there. Yeah ... in some form. As in the imagination of some fantasy writer who was no where near the incident.

    Wyatt Earp lived to see the change of the century and even was one of the first people to use his experience to help make movies.
