Yup. And that's coming from a guy who wasn't actually a gunfighter: Wyatt Earp. His friend Doc Holliday was, but even he occasionally missed his target when he fired. Of course in Hollywood movies like "Tombstone" and "Wyatt Earp" Holliday never missed his mark. Not true.

In the dusty canyons, where echoes persist, Whispers of gunslingers, a tale to enlist. Top 12 deadliest in the Old West's domain, A poem unfolds, where legends remain. Number twelve draws, like a venomous snake, In the sunset's glow, a reputation to make. A gunslinger's prowess, in the western breeze, A story begins, with the rustling trees. Number eleven, quick on the draw, In the saloon's shadow, a chilling law. The Old West echoes with each swift strike, In the tales of gunslingers, where legends hike. Ten and nine, a duet of fate, On the frontier's edge, where shadows conflate. Bullets and whispers in the tumbleweed's dance, As gunslingers carve their deadly romance. Eight and seven, a deadly embrace, In the card games of life, each a high-stakes chase. Old West's canvas painted with lead, In the legacy of gunslingers, where stories are bred. Number six, with a steely glare, In the ghostly canyons, a name to declare. The deadliest draw in the tumbleweed's spin, A gunslinger's saga, where the tales begin. Five, four, three, in the thunderous ride, Through gun smoke and echoes, where destinies hide. Gunslingers etch their names in the western sky, A symphony of lead, as the legends fly. Number two, a shadow in the moon's glow, In the saloons and showdowns, a deadly echo. Gunslingers' saga, on the pages unfurl, In the Old West's tapestry, where legends swirl. At the pinnacle, the deadliest one, In the canyons of time, where tales are spun. Gunslinger supreme, with a fiery brand, In the heart of the Old West, where echoes withstand. In the dust and the echoes, the legends persist, Top 12 deadliest, in the Old West's twist. Gunslingers' tales, a poetic ride, In the history's canyons, where legends abide.

True enough. Holliday never thought he'd be dying in a hotel, (No, he didn't die in a hospital in Glenwood Springs) and in bed, and thought it was funny that he was. Unfortunately what happened in the movie "Tombstone" when a tearful Wyatt Earp visited a dying Doc Holliday in the hospital never actually took place. Of course, that's the ending between them that we all would have wished for, but sorry, folks, that's not history. The reality was that Holliday (who was a racist Southerner) called Earp a "Jew lover" because his girlfriend Josephine Marcus was Jewish. Wyatt Earp never spoke to Doc Holliday again, and only found out about Holllday's death months later. Also, narrator, if you're going to do a presentation like this, don't make things up. You're pissing off some people here whose knowledge of Western history is better than yours.

The face-to-face gunslinger shootout actually very rarely took place in the Old West. Most of the people were shot in the back. The gunfighter face-to-face shootout is a mostly Hollywood concoction. And another Hollyweird (as I call Hollywood Westerns) thing: gunfighters most certainly would not have fired their guns from the hip, you couldn't hit a barn door doing that! They would have had to draw and sight quickly along the barrel. I find it annoying as hell that whenever there's a Hollywood western depicting the gunfighters, for example Doc Holliday, he always got someone killed with every shot. Nonsense. It is well-known that Holliday could draw and fire fast, but sometimes he completely missed his target. Well, no doubt that wouldn't have interested audiences as much as a deadeye shootist. No doubt gunfighters like Clay Allison, John Wesley Hardin, Wild Bill Hickok and Tom Horn were indeed dangerous men with firearms, but sometimes it's greatly exaggerated by the Hollywood myth. Would have liked these pictures better if they weren't Hollywood Westerns but real photos from the Old West.

He was fearless, and He was a "supernatural tracker" .In about 100 shootouts he was never wounded , he died of a heart attack while putting his boots on to catch some desperado...I would be be suprised if he isnt in Hell . Killing that many people without a "mistake" is hard to imagine. Rockwell and Bass Reeves are the two Heros out of the 12 listed .

Billy the kid was not a ruthless killer he apparently only killed four men and not many others or 21 (one for each year of his life) as some people have said. Billy and Pat Garret were not friends, they just knew each other, but no friendship there, just knew each other like anyone can know their neighbours. Jesse James wasn't no wild west Robin hood, he didn't rob from the rich and gave to the poor, the only time he gave money away was to pay the person or family that helped him hide and fed him and his gang after they had committed a robbery, but no giving to the poor, just paying for their help he kept all the money and shared it out between himself and gang members there's also a story that Jesse and gang was given food and a place to rest by a widow and that the following day when the land owner came to get paid rent for the land and house , the lady didn't have the money and she was about to get chucked out Jesse decided to paid it for her, but this hasn't ever been proven. So, no wild west Robin Hood here I'm afraid even though it does sound nice. As you were talking about deadly wild west gunslingers, you could of have also mentioned Tom Horn.

More than a few got shot in the back of the head, maybe so feared enemies knew they couldn't win face to face.

As Wild Bill Hickok’s body lay slumped over the poker table, another poker player, Neil Christy, retrieved Hickok’s cards from the floor and spread them out on the table. They were ace of diamonds, the ace of clubs, both black eights, and the queen of hearts with a smear of Hickok’s blood on it. Other stories reported that Hickok’s hand included both black aces and both black eights, along with the queen of hearts, but historians believe that the suit of the ace of diamonds was changed to the ace of spades because the ace of spades is a card that has long been associated with death.

The vast majority of the people that won the gunfight was not the fastest but the one that took his time well enough to aim Bradley and some others had beat John Wesley on the draw but they were not as accurate as he was so they died.

That was Hickock's adage: not the fastest but the most accurate.

A lot of innacurate information here, HISTORY records " Billy The Kid" as a sadist and not a helpful boy at all, who took pleasure when he killed, Wild Bill..or James Hickock, they ommit he was a lawman who tamed many a town and erased the baddies, The story in this doc of Hickock and Machandles is also tainted as there were 3 against one with te Machandles instigating the fight, Hickock is a much maligned figure , who in context of his times and place was a good man.

Billy the kid is recorded as a man who was “tough but not mean”. Who “would kill, but wasn’t a killer”. Where the hell u get this info abt Billy being a sadist?? Literally never read or heard that anywhere…

My favorite Wild West gunslinger or lawman is Wild Bill Hickok. As a kid I had book about him that has since gotten lost… but I’ve found the same book online but haven’t bought it yet… when I do there more books that would be cool to get.. Joseph G. Rosa was a person that wrote many books about Wild Bill Hickok….. The story about his life is is the ending of his life…. His eyesight and also shooting his friend that got caught in between him and a guy he was shooting at…. And from there he started getting more into gambling which having a name like he did wasn’t a good thing… and unfortunately having his back to the crowd….

Yeah, these pistol duels in the old west style movies never actually happened. There’s never been a proven event of that type in the history of the American old West in the way that it has been portrayed in Hollywood films most of the time gunslingers shot each other in the back or While they were sleeping or something of that nature. If somebody made a movie about the real old West, you probably wouldn’t recognize it as being real. Regardless of what people would have you believe there were laws backed in and not everyone carried weapons and in most towns or townships as they were called back then they had mandates that prohibited firearms inside city limits and if you didn’t comply, you were either put in jail or shot. John Lewis or Doc Holliday, as he was more commonly known after his death was actually a dentist and in all the research I’ve ever done I can only find one incident where he was involved in a shootout, and he was not a good shot either he was nearly blind in one eye and had tuberculosis on top of it, and he could barely hit the broad side of a barn.

Another joke. Any list without Harry Tracy is an invention of the media. He'd make short change of every one of these punks. "Compared to Harry Tracy Jesse James was a Sunday school teacher." Seattle Times, 1902.
