Things are left out. Moe's hair was grown long because he was Jewish, not because his mother wanted a girl. Larry started playing violin at the advice of his father after Larry went to drink something he thought was drinkable, it was acid. His father slapped it before he drank it, it spilled on Larry hand and forearm, damaging nerves. The violin was to improve motor function. When Curly would stop abd pivot foot and go in circle was from Curly accidently shooting himself in the foot on his farm. He did that to ease pain from running, it got popular, so he kept it. These facts are right from Moes son and daughter I spoke with at a convention. They also told me that their dad Moe was a good father and would come home for lunch dressed as whatever character he was portraying. Also Shemp git his name because his name is Sam, but, his mother's Jewish accent when she called him sounded like Shemp, it stuck.

OK, Shemp was never known as Curly. EVER.

[@markclowe]

Much of this was poorly written. There were many times when he was talking about Shemp while a picture of Curly was showing. I believe that first reference he was just trying to say that the part of the 3rd Stooge was played by Shemp, even though, yes, it does sound like he's saying Shemp used to play Curly. There were several examples of poor writing throughout this piece, but the pictures were interesting. Because of this, I was curious to see how many downvotes it has received, but during the era of a certain unpopular "leader" KZbin has seen fit to no longer display downvote counts. Interesting, isn't it??? This came about due to the truly monumental numbers of downvotes the videos of this individual's speeches were receiving. We are never allowed to see just how unpopular this unnamed individual truly is, and consequently we can no longer gauge how unpopular ANY video is! Thanks, KZbin!!! Pravda would be proud!

Shemp was the ex boxer. He could always be found at the boxing rings and going to the fights. He would use his footwork in many of the Stooges shorts. Just look for it. Larry was a huge horse racing fan and and could always be found putting his money down at the tracks. Curly was THE ladies man. He lost much of his money in many of his divorces he went through. And Moe was the business man. He would keep a percentage of the others earnings so that the others would have some money left over for when they would retire. Moe knew that the group was under paid but stayed with the company out of loyalty because the company gave the Stooges their 1st break as a 3 some when they broke away from Healy. Not the best business move but Moe was very loyal that way.

[@joeporter5906]

[@chicoravelli5703]

I’ve also heard that it’s because Harry Cohn (the head honcho) of Paramount Pictures was a bit of a temperamental authoritarian when it came to making business decisions. And from what I’ve heard, Moe’s daughter once said “My dad was fearful. He didn’t want to rock the boat.”. And before anyone (even though I doubt anyone thinks this) says “oh, he’s a bit of a wimp for not doing that”, you’ve got to remember that when they started in 1934, that was obviously during The Great Depression, where any form of income was better than no income and that jobs were pretty limited. To give context, a quarter of Americans during this time (roughly 15 million people) were left with no source of income. There’s also the extra part of how they had families, with a wife and kids.

Greatest Team PERIOD.

[@bookashkin]

The Stooges did not always do their own stunts. For example, dial up the classic Disorder In The Court. When Curly falls over backwards in the witness chair, it's clearly not Jerome.

1:30 is when the “secrets” are finally revealed! 😏😏😏😏😏

Best Movie Stars Ever !

[@Drumcam]

Thanks…Nothing new here to a die hard fan like me, however…and you can hardly say they hid these facts from their fans since they are all in Moe Howard’s book.

[@pamczech5984]

We watched them on channel 9 all the time usually early Saturday morning and used as filler when they needed them

[@JayPooler]

woke up got ready for school ate my breakfast and watch them at 7 am ..on the B/W tv...

[@brianrussell7691]

Nice video. Thank you. I’m a big fan of the 3 Stooges. A small correction. I think you mentioned Moe as the youngest Horowitz brother. The youngest was Jerry/Curly. Double check, but I believe that’s right.

Curly 's was known as Babe to the family.

[@daveogarf]

Yes, he was the 'baby brother' to Moe and Shemp.

[@stevegallo8483]

Bet it got complicated when Shemp got married. Shemp's wife was named Babe.

[@battlestarmarc]

3 stooges were awesome. Lol whenever moe would slap shemp and his slicked up hair would fly into in mess. Curly was funny.

5:42 Soup to Nuts was written by the famous cartoonist Rube Goldberg, who is famous for his illustrations of overly complicated machines to mundane activities.

[@jacoballred]

Years ago as a little kid. Me and my brother along with Dad and Mom. Had met the comedian Moe at a Renaissance Fair. Mom sold Moe's autograph to purchase groceries.

THE BEST HELLO...HELLO..HELLO!!!

[@frankmoyer8151]

Still watch every Saturday night from 6-8pm

[@wrotenwasp]

Anyone out there from the metro Detroit area remember watching the 3 stooges in the late 60s-70s on WKBD CH 50 ?

[@duothyual7518]

back in the mid 2000s my dad bought a load of 3 stooges dvds and me and my 2 sisters watched it every night at 7pm before we went to bed. Even though the film may look outdated, the three stooges were peak in my childhood.

[@vassa1972]

They were great

[@DayBeforeTomorrow]

I don't think the Stooges tried to hide the fact that there were six Stooges. That doesn't even make sense.

[@luisadell4421]

Wow .!! They are the Greatest physically comics of all time who today can top them ,,, nobody and nobody will

[@donaldetomas4651]
