About

Welcome to the chronicles of history that was never covered in high school. This is for the extreme, the unexpected, the untold and the flat-out weird parts of history. Because as weird as people seem today, we don't hold a candle to history.

Video Description

Well, they didn't call it 'The Wild West' for nothing. Pockets of total lawlessness, a struggle to keep order and cohesion, the place was wild indeed. Today we are offering a collection of videos that dive into various aspects of life in the wild west: how they tried to keep cities lawful, how average people spent their free time when not working the land, what Wild West Saloons (and saloon girls) were actually like, and how they tried to keep clean in such dusty, dirty conditions. Take a stroll with us through the pages of a bygone era that was, well, wild and crazy!
