After watching all those westerns as a kid,
i looked up the truth about a lot of those famous scenes from the old west,
and found out that they were simply not true

For instance;in the movies cowboys jumped off roofs,out of scarlet ladies windows,and even off cliffs, onto their horses backs
this would not only injure the horse--possibly break his back,and the cowboy would be singing "yippe yi yo ky yay"for the rest of his life as a soprano

And when the cowboy hero wrestled the outlaw from his horse,usually at the same small mound,so that they rolled together
his hat could not possibly stay on his head,unless it was stapled or glued.Scopes tried this stunt out,and glued the hat on.

when they fell from the horses and rolled down the hill.the top part of the hat came apart,which left the hero looking a little rediculous

Finally,there was no (in real life0"here,bite down on this here bullet,while ii take that slug out of your leg"
the patient was prolly given copious amounts of whiskey
or other inebriant ,until he passed out



Still,I remember fondly
Bob Steele
Buck Jones

Gabby Hayes
Gene Autry
Gene Barry
Hoot Gibson
Jack Elam
Jack Palance
Lash Larue

and many others

Bob Steele was my favorite when I was about ten,He was forever beating up on his adversaries
Later found out that Steele was a runt of Five Feet Four(was sorely disillusioned)
Then Jack Palance,I'll never forget him as the evil gunslinger in "Shane"
These Actors even taught a young lad(Me) about truthfulness ,honesty, and loyalty
and helped a boy through many hours of loneliness

In the old cowboy movies there was a reason that their hats did not come off. In a sense they were glued on, however that glue was there sweat. I know this because I worked as a wrangler and trail guide at a horse ranch a few years back. I would get so hot and sweaty that my hat would literally glue itself to my head, if I didn't give it a little sideways twist and tried to pull it directly off it would've taken skin with it.

Those were fun days for me, I would try to show men how to properly set the saddle but they never got it so when we got back to the ranch after a good trot and canter they always got off and walked a little bowlegged, not from the horse but from the fact that they would end up busting their balls on the saddle. Not many men really like riding horses, I always had more women come out and ride then men. If a man did show up it was always with a wife that was very anxious to get out and do some trotting and cantering.
Another funny thing was when we came back to the ranch riders would get off and say how sore they are, that's with a little smile I would say wait till tomorrow.
