  • OJ killed Ringo right after he lopped off Nicoles head.

  • thats inaccurate DOC IS THE KILLER I have been there also and all people say the same doc shot him

  • I don't believe for a second that Johnny Ringo killed himself ...

  • Billy Claiborne tried to kill Buckskin Frank Leslie because the Ringo crowd was sure that Leslie killed Ringo. Leslie survived it. Leslie was married to my Great great Aunt Mary Durwood who lived in Tombstone as Mary Killeen, then Mary Leslie (Ben Traywick calls her wrongly May Killeen). She died in Turlock, Ca in the 1940's. Also, I doubt that the small cottonwood tree was there at Ringo's grave 130 years ago. I've written a few articles about Tombstone, drove a stagecoach and tended bar there.

  • Back in those days...if you wanted to get rid of somebody it was much easier, not saying I would do it, but somebody killed Johnny Ringo...I find it hard to believe he killed himself!

  • @MINIeminemFAN the black panthers killed ringo for being racist haha

  • The pistols in those days were black powder.Ringo could not have held the pistol far enough away from his head to prevent powder burns on his head.There were no powder burns on his skin.

  • Ringo's rifle was propped against the tree with an unfired round in the chamber. His revolver was found in his hand, containing 5 live rounds and an empty chamber under the hammer. Johnny Ringo did not commit suicide. Johnny-Behind-the-Deuce, a gambler with a hatred and grudge against Ringo for trying to lynch him is the most likely suspect. Outlaw Pony Deal killed JBtheDeuce a short time later in revenge. Billy Claiborn claimed Frank Leslie killed Ringo with his dying breath. this per Ray Hogan

  • jo ringo peter!is a legend!

  • The coroner's report stopped this controversy before it started and made it pretty clear that Ringo committed suicide, but it's hard to kill a modern legend.

  • King Kong ate Ringworm!

  • cometicblazt: LOL

  • you're a fucking moron. go to the library in springwood co. look up the obituary then look up cause of death .shoot in right temple j.rongo was a lefty. #2. there was olny a shot gun near his campsite . put 2+2 together dumbass.

  • I heard that their names were recored in court even if they weren't there. I think they killed him. Maybe execution style, maybe it looked like a suicide.

  • is that guy in the video (the one doing the talking) Bill Envall? cuz some1 tld me thts Bill Engvall, but i m doubtful abt tht...if any1 knows plz tell me!!!!  i don't think it is but some1 else who saw the vid said it is

  • This guy cannot know this.

    It is possible Ringo killed himself. He was found against a tree with a bullet in his head and a gun in his hand. However, noone saw it happen, and there was no such thing as forensics in those days.

    He might have killed himself. Or maybe someone killed him. All this happened in a period were time-keeping was inaccurate, and there are many contradicting stories and witnesses. The Earp-clan and their supporters tell one story, the Clantons another.

  • The cougar in the back can kill me anytime.

  • where can i get more literature on the whole story . very interested, thanks . was rude on my part to add the last part .sorry . please suggest some texts to read.

  • A bullet to the head and no powder burns.They've been maligning my Clanton family" and you are unbiased? Youre hypocrasy runs really deep . You are a money whore.

  • @tommil1000 The 'Clanton Family' of the 1880s were kind of like 'The Godfathers' of the period but there were other "organized crime families, and bosses" such as Curley Bill and Ringo. Also remember many of those were still "traitors" to the Union, as they were still pro-confederate, even though the "Good Guys" had won the American War. Except those then were bad guys, get over it and enjoy our "western freedoms"!

  • It has been said that a 7 and a half inch handgun was found on the scene and Ringo carried a reg barrel handgun---there was one person besides "Wyatt" who carried a long barreled wpn a guy by the name of Lesile and had ordered another long barreled wpn, one with a 12 inch barrel---he was pissed with Ringo...also heard & read their were no 'power burns' to the head where the shot entered...they were still useing black powder then as well...smokeless came later..

  • @rangeclerk No burns, huh? Did the forensic pathologist on the scene tell you that?

  • @don417 What has also been writtten was it was several days before his body was found...will consult my history texts and will list the ones I have gotten info from

  • @rangeclerk No sweat, dude, Just givin ya a hard time.

  • @don417 Alright Pilgrim y'all want ta give me a 'hard time' well fer a 'dandy' like ya, ya sure got a way of becomin' a 'burr under my shetland pony's saddle...so I checked with 'Doc' and the two of us challenge ya to a game of Old Maid at High Noon! YEEE HAAAAW

  • @rangeclerk I'm yuh huckleberry!

  • @WelfareSymphony How 'bout a wild game of JINGA! :D

  • @don417 On a serious note, if a 7 and half inch barreled handgun was found on the scene and would be a real challenge to use against one's head,,,also was reported his gunbelt was upside down and other odd things...suspect someone from Tombstone took the dirtbag out, got tired of all his bs. To bad we don't have guys like Doc and Earps around today, the "gangbangers' would 'disappear' almost overnight...

  • He's wrong Doc Holiday had a fast draw and won and killed him with a shot in the face..

  • The only thing that is certain is that Doc Holliday's attorney was in Colorado at the time of Ringo's death!

    This guy is a Kook!

  • what a load of shit, blither on in a toilet

  • Tombstone is the best western of all time. But yea Ringo committed suicide

  • @ldraheim no he didn't commit suicide  he lost a draw against Doc Holiday by that large tree...he was shot in the face.

  • @Dorisequador if it was on TV it must be real

  • @ldraheim so was your mama hahhaa actually Wyatt spoke about it thats why it became part of the movie..

    it was a fact Doc Holiday went to meet Johnny Ringo before wyatt did.. to kill him and protect his friend,

  • @Dorisequador It's also a fact that Doc Holiday was in Colorado the day Ringo was killed.

  • @ldraheim no it's not Doc Holiday and wyatt were on there way to meet ringo to have a one on one fight their Lawyer was in Colorado dealing with a leagal matter for them.

    It was a fake alibye..so no charges of murder would shine upon their names.

  • @Dorisequador It happens. Truth is nobody knows what happen and all of this is based on rumor and theory.

  • @ldraheim True but Wyatt mentioned to others and his wife they went after Johhny and Doc tricked him and went ahead of him and when he arrive Ringo was dead.

    But maybe Ringo's killer was with Frank "buckskin Lesile last .. So maybe he killed him Leslie was there and hatted Ringo and wanted to kill him and his group for Wyatt and Doc were his best friends..

  • ur crazy

  • The funny thing about ringos suicide is that all of the chambers were found to have loaded rounds in them,thus casting doubt into the whole suicide theory. their is no positive proof that earp of holliday were in colorado this was an alledge alibi cooked up by good friend and sheriff of trinidad -bat masterson.So it is quite possible that they killed ringo

  • fuck you I think YOU come lately NANCY!

  • when josephine died she left wyatts memoirs to her neice who got with a writer named Glenn G Boyer who then put out a book called the tombstone vendetta. In it, it tells the true story of how ringo was killed. shot in the back by 2 men (not to blow it but ill let you read the book) while he was drying his clothes. Also it tells who really robbed the wells fargo stage. And believe it or not the connection with turkey jack and the masonic lodge.

  • Johnny Ringo was found dead under a tree in West Turkey Creek Valley just like in the movie Tombstone. One round had been fired from his gun. Was is suicide, a drunken accident ,gunfight, murder? It was officially ruled a suicide but nobody knows for sure except Johnny Ringo and he ain't talking.

    Personally I think it was Lorne Greene. Ever heard the song Ringo?

  • doc holliday killed him in a shootout?

  • @singing4him92508 I think that was just in the movie "Tombstone." Awesome scene, but he was in Colorado, like they say in the video.

  • huh well another vid from hauntedsaloon says johnny ringo did NOT kill himself so which is it you dirty dog

  • no paul did'nt kill ringo george harrison did with his guitar

  • johnny ringo is alive and well and livin in kalamazoo  : P

  • George bush killed johnny ringo hahahaha

  • I heard that with the amount of money that was coming in and out TOMBSTONE, with the mines and all that some folks living there in the 1880s had a type of telephone and there were even tennis courts as well.

  • Doc is just so good you think Ringo killed himself

  • Johnie Ringo was riding in a buggy-whip parade through Dealy plaza at the time of his death. Stereoscopes from the time period clearly show a smoke patch emanating from a nearby grassy knoll, while the remaining images from the incident (the famous Zapata slide show) show his head jerking back, and to the left...back and to the left......back....and to the left.

  • @BlkSun865 Meanwhile, on the other side of town, aunt may is in a ditch...............

  • Johnny Ringo killed Johnny Ringo. That's just what Doc Holiday wants you to think.

  • Paul Mccartney killed Ringo

  • Hehehehehe

  • @cometblazt lol! i think that was Ringo Starr, not Johnny Ringo. Johnny Ringo was an outlaw during the time of Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday. I suppose u were joking tho and if so, it was a good 1 :D lol

  • I think it was Buckskin Frank Leslie who killed Ringo.

  • no buckskin frank leslie killed him.just like billy claiborne said on his death bed.i tend to believe peoples death bed confessions.

  • way off...doc was in court 3 days before they found ringo. But peaople say it was just an alibi so doc could get the upperhand on ringo...

  • johnny ringo was eaten by his dog...Bingo ...so who killed ringo? Bingo Ringos Dingo

  • hahahahah man you are funny, your a true comedian im subscribing to your channel.

  • Hahahahahahaha!!!!!!

  • @Knight192 ..........AHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA­!!!! lmfao!

  • the mily bar kid!

  • Jimblo Wingo was used to drinking whiskey. He one day got a hankering for some milk. Well, the fastest gun who ever lived just up and drank him two glasses of milk. Well, it killed him right off.

    Learn your history!

  • Ringo made a deal with the Devil and the Devil collected

  • Ringo isn't dead!!! John is! George is! but Paul and Rigo are still alive

  • @bill13760

    Paul is dead, too...

    "Turn me on, dead man..." ;P

  • Rambo killed Johnny Ringo

  • Buckskin Frank Leslie killed Ringo without a doubt Clanton!

  • In the book titled "I married Wyatt Earp" by Josie Marcus she claims that both Wyatt and Doc slipped back into Arizona and hunted down Ringo. The reason he was found with no "Powder Burns" on his face can be explained by Josie's claim that Wyatt shot him from a distance with a rifle shot to the head. He supposedly was found propped up against a tree with his bare feet wrapped in his torn shirt and his holster strapped on upside down. Who knows the truth? Her explanation sounds logical right?

  • Actually Ringo's body had decayed quite a bit by the time he was found. The powder burns stuff is just bunk. They did even look for things like that back then and since his body had laid out for quite sometime....even if you were looking for powder burns...you wouldn't be able to tell.

  • harrytuttle100 or should I say harrybuttheadhead1000 your the cunt who cares or what you or your countrymen have to say if you don't like us don't ask us to feed or fight for you fucks in Europe lazy mfers get a month of a year pussys thats why we always have to save your stupid asses

  • who killed johnny ringo?...the real question should be....who the fuck cares....americans ya gotta love em...unless of course you aint american....then they just sound like ignorant shit kicking cunts who have never even been out of their shit country

  • If it wasn't for Americans, you'd be speaking German or Russian right now. In fact, you should get on your knees and kiss an American's ass next time you see one.

  • You have to admit, that would be pretty damn funny if people would actually do that. And freaky.

  • That's a ridiculous thing to say. You can't hate Americans for being ignorant and uninterested in their own history, and hate them for being knowledgeable and interested in their history.

    You want to hate us "just cause", then go right ahead, but at least get your reasons straight.

  • BIG WORDS coming from someone who has Dixie Chicks and American Idol videos listed as favorites. Give me a break....by the way, what kind of man listens to Dixie Chicks and American Idol videos. Either give them a pinch and let them drop or grow a pair.

  • Wow for someone who really doesnt like Americans you like alot of American TV show's and artists, I guess you love canines but just hate dogs huh?

  • Sir, you should really write a book. Sometimes the hard truth is tougher to take than sweet romantic lies. Don`t hold it against me:) but I knew a member of the Holliday family. But he was reluctant to talk about Doc. I think it was because he himself was a minister, and ashamed of the shootist`s reputation.

  • Could it have been Luke Short or One-eye Jack? I have heard that this humble, soft-spoken but deadly shootist may have. Or perhaps Doc Holliday`s black friend, One-eyed Jack. Doc saved Wyatt Earp`s life from Jack in a dispute in Kansas, later chillingly informing Wyatt that Jack was faster than he HIMSELF. Wyatt , Doc and Jack had all become friends by 1880, and Jack was reported to had been in Arizona. Or could it had been John Savage, the man REALLY tamed TOMBSTONE?

  • well Doc Holliday wasn't even afraid of death, so I doubt he was afraid of Ringo either

  • he killed sylvia so he deserves his death

  • The guy is absolutely right. Ringo committed suicide. He was a depressive with a drinking problem. Both DH and Wyatt Earp feared/respected Ringo, and both were on the run and well out of AZ when Ringo was shot--by his own hand. BTW, there's nothing like walking down the streets of Tombstone on a cool autumn evening after dark.....

  • hahaha,he got distracted by the blonde.

  • only johnny ringo could kill johnny ringo

  • how does this guy think he knows all about the west and the death of the gunfighters< i don't think anyone really knows the whole truth, to know that you would have to have been there. just my opinion...

  • Kudos to you for telling the truth about Tombstone! I did however thoroughly enjoy the Hollywood Version. But always keeping in mind THEY are in the ENTERTAINMENT BIZ. You however KNOW the REAL STORY and it is well appreciated! Thankyou!

  • that makes 2 of us. i love this movie,but knowing the facts,is great..ty for posting this...

  • You bet! Fact is always better than Fiction! Thanks.

  • a lonely bullet to the right side of his temple is what it says on his TOmbstone. Everybody from Wyatt(who some say was ambushed with Doc and Frank Dodge), Doc Holiday(by himself using his court appearance as an alibi) to Frank Leslie (who some said shot him while Ringo was asleep under the tree) and ultimately SUICIDE.(which I think is the truth.)

  • What does your no daisey mean? Did they ude that term in the old west?

  • If your a daisy or something is a daisy it means their the best. Your no daisy means your not all that good.

  • Not bad who's the babe...

  • mcdonalds killed ringo...he just loved these double cheese heart stopping burgers....mcdonalds did it

  • He should have spent a night in a Doc Holiday Inn

  • i didn't read anything about gun shot wounds conected with ringos death just that he was found near that tree.being the nut job he was reported to be he might have died of a brain toomer.not as romantic i guess but more realistic .

  • yous guys really think your cowboys you are seriously putting a classic movie to shame please get off you tube

  • From what I've read in multiple places, nobody really knows how Johnny Ringo died. I read 3 theories. That he committed suicide, that he was ambushed (possibly by Wyatt Earp or he and Doc Holliday), or killed by someone else. One source said that there was an empty chamber in his gun when found and the other one said that all the chambers were full. I think Hollywood sometimes dramatizes because these are not documentaries, they are movies. Doc Holliday killing Ringo was entertaining.

  • I wish there was more pictures of Ringo. So far I've only seen one, and from what I've heard that's the only one in existence

  • johnny ringo died of shame because he was american

  • If it were not for Americans, shithead bastards like you, would not have a place like this to talk out of their assholes.

  • he was a half breed.

  • Val Kilmer killed Ringo,I saw the movie!

  • thats very funny lol

  • dang right,johnny looked like some1 walked over his grave...im your huckleberry,have a good day...

  • This guy is a complete idiot.

  • Yeah but who would take the time to put Ringo's boots on wrong? It sounds just as retarded. Noone honestly knows who killed Ringo.

  • wyatt earp killed him...

  • Ok if he commited sucicide why was he wearing his boots on the opposite feet? When his body was found ? There is other clues that point he didnt kill himself and I know Ringo was part of your Clanton boys boys but come on why is everyone in Tombstone current time so anti Doc and the Earps?

  • His body had apparently been there overnight since the previous day (when a shot had been heard from the general area by a country resident), and his boots were found tied to the saddle of his horse, which was captured two miles away.

  • this guy is saying he don't buy it !! like if he would know..well so much for this joker Doc killed ringo

  • I still say Doc Holliday killed Johnny Ringo. Doc Holliday was just too dam'n fast

  • I have a question? The cowboys may have been liked, but they were a gang. They did swear some oath I heard. It still makes sense that someone had to do something if they did commit any crimes. Big or small.

  • Truth or tombstone? It is near impossible to tell what really happened in Tombstone. So many people told so many different stories. But there is no more evidence Ringo killed himself then there is that Doc Holiday shot him. Truth is no one knows who shot him. Maybe they should have had a guy with a big questionmark on his shirt shoot him in the movie. How vain to think people go to the movies to get an education. They go to movies to be hear a good story. And no one cares about the Clampits.

  • Why did he commit suicide?

  • but johnny ringo and doc did not have any love for each other, and if not stopped they probably would have shot each in an earlier altercation were they were arrested.

  • you are right... both Doc and his attorney appeared in court there on July 11, 14, and 18, 1882, making it impossible for Holliday to have killed Johnny Ringo.

  • bull shit

    that guy was full of life, a real criminal, plus he wanted to kill either mr Wyatt or mr Holliday so i dont buy it...

  • The movie Tombstone may have been off track historically, but on the plus side it did increase interest in the Old West and it was a flat out enjoyable film. It's sad but true that film-makers never allow the facts to get in the way of telling a good story!

  • great info. very cool.

  • #1 If Johnny Ringo committed suicide with his 45 his head would have been pretty badly mangled; weather he had been found immediately or not! #2 why was he propped up against the Oak tree with his guns strapped on upside down? 3- why were his feet bandaged with strips of his shirt?

    I say he was killed by someone and there were plenty of people who had reasons to kill him because despite the romanticizing of Johnny Ringo; he was a low-life who needed killing.
