The Grave of Doc Holliday!

1. That tree with the scraps of cloth hanging from it is the "wishing tree", so named by a cancer patient who always loved the tree and placed their first 'wish' on the tree while undergoing chemo therapy. (So far the wish has worked well! Knock on wood….) That same individual volunteered to work with children undergoing cancer treatment at the hospital and they now put their own wishes on the scraps of cloth, which he (or she) then takes up to the tree and hangs it for the child. I don't know much more than that – just GOOGLE and ask about the tree with the scraps of cloth on the path to Doc Holliday's grave.

2. Jack Daniels now makes Mexican liquor???

3. I've been there. Helluva hike up there.
   Doc may not actually be there anymore. His father may have taken him home to Georgia.

4. Doc is buried with his dad…

5. Why do Americans f<<k around whith their history. Looking from the UK it seems that American history is second rate.

6. Holliday sure had a baby face.

7. Enjoyed this episode. Doc Holliday was one of the most interesting "characters" in the Old West. He is the reason I started reading about the Old West.

8. Very interesting and as usual, nicely presented. The tree with rags on it is also interesting there. In Celtic culture, a Well with clean water, was sometimes attributed with healing properties. Tying a rag to a nearby tree was part of a ritual of healing. The disease or ailment fading as the cloth deteriorated. There is one near my home in Culloden woods near Inverness and another on the Black Isle, just north. In Scotland, they’re called Clouttie trees (cloth trees).

9. Rumor has it that the mountain was frozen over, and they couldn't take Doc up. He is buried down below.

10. 👍

11. Weird to think these guys were after the donner pass incident

12. Thank you for sharing Doc Holiday’s Grave 💙👍🏽

13. This false.his sister took his body to a place I will not say.

14. I often wonder if any of the famous gunslingers are actually in the graves ? Great story bro !

15. Nice Hat 🦈❤

16. Val played Doc In Tomestone and he played Batman as well.

17. It's also possible that Doc's body didn't make it all the way up to the cemetery itself. At the time that he died and you saw it yourself that winding trail that goes up to the cemetery would not have permitted passage of the hearse to the cemetery at all. It's long been rumored that he's actually buried in somebody's backyard in the neighborhood at the base of the hill going up to the cemetery.

18. Fun fact! Hes buried in griffin georgia

19. Doc Hollyday was only a gambler,a frustaded dentist,a unhappy lover and a out law of the american west…He was only this…Not more…Their fame is because the cinema was make some pictures about their wrong life…All is over now…

20. I have seen something similar to that tree before. On Hwy 72 going from Mississippi into Alabama once you keep on HWY 72 in Alabama if you keep looking on the left side of the HWY you will see a tree that has shoes hanging off of it. I have no idea why people started throwing there shoes up in it but they did it. If I remember correctly when I was a kid I threw a pair in it to. It is a blurred vision of it. My dad pulled over was showing me and I threw my shoes in it.

21. I enjoying this video of yours of Dr, Holiday I knew of some about him that you mention but I didn't other things you mention Thanks for sharing

22. Man was part of a secret society there is more to all of their figures.

23. We're they inlaws or outlaws? Not sure about the OK coral?

24. It's a shame the headstone was changed. The original headstone was so much better. We live in Colorado, and are curious why it was changed.

25. TOMBSTONE MY HOME TOWN. I LOVE IT.

26. Holiday drank Old Overholt rye whiskey. this was before we put liquor in charred barrels so the rye would have been a clear moonshine.

27. Doc, not there! His daddy went and bought him back to Georgia!!

28. Those bands are falling native soldiers.. appreciate you even being there and exposing it

29. We have hat trees bra trees 🌲 shoe size trees 🌲 in Australia 🇦🇺

30. He arrived quietly and became a legend. DOC HOLLIDAY.

31. Makes sense bc Wyatt took Holladay, toward the end of his life, to Colorado bc of Holladays tuberculosis. It was thought fresh air was the best treatment for what they called "consumption".

32. achei super interessante vou assinar o canal

33. I have been there as a kid. I tell you, I would hate to be a pallbearer who had to help tote a coffin with a body in it up to that cemetery.

34. Is it LGBTQ friendly???

35. Crazy how some of these old west legends knew eachother

36. There store only two main cemeteries in Griffin that date back that far. Oak Hill and Stonewall. They are across the street from one another. off the main strip. My grandparents are buried in the latter. I was never aware of Doc being there. I will have to go look next time I’m down there.
