Lincoln’s bodyguard when he comes back from the bathroom:

Still don’t get why you’d dismiss a bodyguard because you think there won’t be a threat and he’d listen. It’s literally his job to make sure that there IS no threat to you.

“He’s right behind me, isn’t he?” Famous last words

Props to the camera man for going back in time to capture the footage

Booth was actually a pretty famous actor.. imagine Tom Hanks shooting Biden😂 and also with a name like "Booth".. he was named for this. Shooting a president in a booth.

Bro really pulled out the live leak footage from the 1800s Thanks for the likes blud

Imagine how history would’ve changed if the bodyguard didn’t choose to leave

Fun fact, He also broke his leg jumping on the stage. And when he shot the bullet he timed it when everyone was laughing sp the thought it was apart of the play. It took a few seconds to realize booth actually shot abraham

"Look who fell a sleep first, prank him John" 💀

Booth was a famous actor and knew the play that was going on and shot Lincoln at the loudest part of the play and it distracted the viewers from the assassination. Booth then broke his leg when falling and was caught at a warehouse.

The gunshot actually didn’t startle the audience. Booth knew the play and shot right as a burst of laughter occurred in the crowd. Most did hear it slightly but thought it was part of the play. Then Booth jumped from the balcony and some people still thought it was part of the play

Lincoln's bodyguard definitely got alot of shit for that.

It's a coincidence how Abraham Lincolns bodyguard was named John F.

Booth must've broken his leg from the jump on stage. I saw the photo of Lincoln. One eye bulged out. The jaw was slack. A photo of instant death. I'll never forget it.

Respect to the cameraman.

President Abraham Lincoln is my favorite president.

Bro's a witness 💀

Just wanted to say I love your content! They’re so interesting always look forward to more 😊

We gonna be making it out of 7th grade with this one 🗣️🗣️🗣️ 🔥🔥🔥

Lincoln’s bodyguard: Ok sir I’m back with the snacks and- *sees body* whoops

I'm saving this short, that footage of Lincoln getting shot looked so real and terrifying

Fun fact:An elderly man appeared on a show called "Whats my secret" that aired in the 1960s and it turned out he saw Abraham Lincoln be assassinated

What will always blow my mind is one bodyguard and literally thousands of enemies !

I’ve been to the theater and his seating, he couldn’t even see anything and also the paintings show that the theater is big, but actually is pretty tiny

the fact that he said the exact day titanic hit the iceberg 💀

What happened was the gunshot went off after a great roar of laughter came. Then someone yelled after Booth had screamed his words, “ Stop him. He has shot the president “

“Bro this play is going to be MIND BLOWING!” Famous last words.

Bodyguard: I’m going to the bathroom Lincoln:okay 5 mins later Bodyguard:Abe I’m back crap I’m going to get fired 💀

You forgot to mention he nearly broke a leg when he landed.

“Tell us you killed the president without tellin us you killed the president” 😭

There was someone at the door of the balcony that Lincoln was in but Booth showed the person something and then he let Booth in, I don't thin anyone knows what Booth showed the person. Abraham didn't know that Booth was there because he was being very quiet though.

This is a great video we will never know this ever without this video so thank you❤

Rest in peace Abraham Lincoln, i will remember you in in the bottom of my heart he was a great man a great american

Both broke his ankle when he jumped, you forgot about that

Me trying to stop booth from shooting "2099 spider man: It's a Canon event" BROOOOOOOOOOO

John Wilkes Booth went to the theatre earlier in the day to fetch his mail and that's when he learnt that Lincoln would be at the play that evening. The play was "Our American Cousin" written by Tom Taylor. It was to be a benefit for a Miss Laura Keene (real name Mary Moss) who performed her role 1,000 times. After hearing Lincoln would be at the performance he went to the orchestra pit and found a broken music stand. He took that upstairs and hid it behind the door for that evening and started preparing his plan for that night. The Grants were originally supposed to accompany the Lincolns but they were away. Instead they invited Clara Harris and her fiancé Major Henry Rathbone. Later Booth arrived at the theatre and had a look around. He realised that the play was running behind schedule so he went next door to the Star Saloon. Than the Lincolns, Clara Harris and Major Rathbone arrived and Miss Keene saw them and ordered "Hail to the Chief" to be played. After taking his bows and waving he sat down and the play resumed. Booth came back to the theatre and went up to the box. Booth was such a famous actor that he wasn't even confronted and everyone at the theatre knew him personally. Parker was nowhere to be seen. There are many theories as to where he was. Some say that he moved to get a better view of the play and some say he was discharged due to the Lincolns feeling safe and others say he was never there. But Booth went into the small vestibule and wedged the door shut with a piece of wood from the music stand he put up earlier. He was waiting for a specific line in the play because he knew it would bring up laughter and thunderous applause and muffle the shot. A lone actor Harry Hawk was on stage and around 10:15 he was facing stage right and delivered his line: "Don't know the manners of good society... eh? Wal I know enough to turn you inside out old gal.... you sockdologizing old mantrap.. at that moment Booth opened the door behind the president and shot him with a single shot Derringer 44 calibre. In the left occipital lobe, thickest part of the skull. Lincoln's spine was never severed. Everyone was so busy laughing and clapping at the line. Booth meanwhile dropped the gun and grappled with Major Rathbone and sliced his arm from wrist to elbow before off balance tumbling out of the box and landing so he broke a bone in his leg. He got up and sauntered to centre stage and than he shouted "Sic Sempre Tyrannus" and may've also said "The South is Avenged" the people originally thought that it was a part of the play. Only Mary Lincoln's screaming had people realising what happened. Major Rathbone while injured kicked the wedge from the door. Since Booth was waving a knife when shouting as he left they thought Lincoln was stabbed until they accidentally found the bullet wound in his head. It than became a death watch and he was taken to the Peterson House across the street and put in the backroom where he died at 7:22 am. I used to volunteer at Ford's Theatre in the 80s.

I always heard Booth was hired by our own government.

After Lincoln was shot, Booth then took out a knife to stab him, but the other man in the balcony had fought with him, and he was stabbed instead ...

General: there's nothing we can do :army But sir we can select another president General: ur right ur genius you well be new president

Bless he's soul a great President ❤

When I did a tour of Ford Theater in D.C., they said the bullet went through the skull and flattened itself again the eye. No spinal chord injury.

The 1800s was a time of greater freedoms, less over reaching, government controls, lesser levels of professionalism, and people could still think for themselves. 😯

Remember that Ford’s theater was a lot smaller than you think. Like a lot. Look it up.

IDK why but it feels like playing as haytham on the first mission as hatham kenway in AC3

Booth was a famous actor and he wasn’t the only person behind the assasination. There were four people involved. One named James Powell was supposed to kill the senator but failed. One which i forget his name was supposed to kill the vice president (which was the easiest job). He was later arrested for giving “old friends” information about his plan to kill the vice president. Booths friend Herold came with him on a long journey to escape (herold was one of the four people). they went all the way down to south carolina where confederate soldiers ratted out where Booth and Herold were. They were in a barn of a civilians house and the civilians locked them in there after they fell asleep in the barn. The Union soldiers then chased them all the way down to the barn and burned it down. Lincoln came out of the barn and killed himself in front of the soldiers and i forgot what happened to Herold. Hope some of y’all learned smth

Pretty sure they didn't have videos in 1865. Cool video tho, didn't know that Edit: spelling

I had a feeling he was killed like this also it gave me more confidence because of ridiculous 6 the movie with Adam Sandler and more

I saw this in person it was really cool and also a lot of people don’t know this, but there was someone in the booth with Lincoln other than his wife and it was one of his friends and his girlfriend. When Lincoln got shot, his friend tried to kill booth, but was overpowered and stabbed through the arm

May I say that you have fantastic artwork, it really brings the tale to life, thank you so much.

That camera had better quality then the one at the banks 😭😭💀

blud hit them with the 🤓 "semper tyrannis"

I was so high and I thought the video said "What drip Abraham Lincoln wear at Assassination"

Bro this whole video is half of what I learned in 8th grade history

It did NOT sever his spinal cord.

It probably looked like a goddamn milk shake

I actually went to Abraham’s house and the theater It was pretty cool

“Abraham, where’d you get shot?” “In the back of my mind…”

The bullet lodged in his brain behind the left eye. It did not sever his spinal chord.

The audience did not freak out immediately in fact, they started to freak out after someone in the presidential booth (I forgot their name) said something like “stop that man!” and that’s when the audience started to freak out because they never heard a gunshot and even when the guy who shot Abe and jumped down they still thought it was apart of the play.

To think some guy that lived to 1950s-1960s witnessed this. Shows you how young this nation really is and how not long ago this was.

When I watched the assassination, I cried. That's how you know he's the best in history!

Why was the bodyguard's head growing 😂😂😂

Bro went to the back rooms after completing a side quest 😂

You forgot the part where he broke his leg jumping from the booth to the stage and then when he ran out the side door he was arrested and I think killed because his leg hurt so much he could barely walk so the police found him like 10 feet away.

He should have been protected.

Abraham Lincoln vampire hunter

Nah the bullet looked like it went a little too high and missed

Evan, that is where you should belong, Abraham Lincoln's picture is so funny

He was taking revenge for the south rather then chillin with con-feds

Fun Fact: he yelled Death to all tyrants when he jumped down, Blessed Be.

Sometimes I really wonder, what are on these people's minds😞

Booth was almost stopped Booth went to the front of the box intending to escape but there was a Major in the box where Lincoln was and the Major jumped from his seat grabbed Booth from behind and pulled him back from the railing but Booth twisted around his grip and Booth was stronger than him, so he was able to free himself and slash the major with a knife and then jumped.

I would say that conspiracy.... Lincoln should have two guards at all times and even a third guarding the back door...!He knew he got a lot of enemy after the civil war ended...😮

Lincolns son was at a theater down the Rhode watching a children's play not knowing his father had been shot. They stopped the play a man went on stage a announce the president had been shot.

Bro is batman😂

“Sic Semper Tyrannis”, the same line spoken by Brutus when assassinating Julius Caesar, meaning “thus always to tyrants.” The leap is believed to have broken Booth's left leg.

The footage was scary. Rest in peace

R.I.P A. Lincoln "Always will be the best."

John was actually against Lincoln from the beginning and he was pretty open about it, so for anyone wondering why they didn’t suspect him or act weird when he literally walked past the audience is because he was an actor at the theater

You forget that he broke his ankle from that 40-foot leap. Hence, his getting caught.

What's cool is that they kept the way the theater looked that night and it still looks like it today. Today Ford Theater is a museum about Lincolns assassination

bro really said : 🥴😵😵‍💫😵‍💫💀

I’m learning this in social studies. It’s actually pretty sad because he didn’t do anything. He’s just trying to watch the show.

The nerve of a Democrat to talk about tyrants.

Only your friends can betray you.

Blud really said "April fool's"💀

John Wilkes Booth was the son of a famous actor whose acting family known to Lincoln - this video clip leaves out a few pertinent facts : 1. The shot rang out at 10:17pm on Friday 14 April 1865 (on ‘Good Friday’ during light rain) during the loudest laugh of the night whilst performing Our American Cousin (‘Well I know enough to turn you inside out, ole gal-you sockdologising ole man-trap!’ ) so the majority in the audience (90% of which were male union soldiers) could not hear the shot itself 2. Booth badly sprain’d his tight ankle in jumping down from the presidential box on to the stage (9.5 feet) causing a hairline fracture because the spur of his boot caught the flag bunting draping the box - Booth was famous for not only his good looks but he also did his own stunts so his injury was not expected … 3. Pope Pius IX hated Lincoln & wanted him dead - Lincoln never promoted Roman Catholics into the Union Army because he believ’d their loyalty was to Rome (who favour’d the Confederacy) - Mary Surrat & other co-conspirators with the arch Catholic Booth were in contact (as Booth himself was) with a Roman Catholic spy network run out of Montreal which Booth visited on numerous occasions in 1864/1865…two of the co-conspirators to the Lincoln assassination fled to the Vatican for protection and became part of the Papal Guard - something wrong there… 4. The surgeon attending Lincoln as he was carried across the street from Ford’s to the ‘Peterson House’ pulled out the bullet lodged in the back of Lincoln’s head which caus’d blood to flow for several minutes as Lincoln retain’d consciousness enough to utter his last words ‘where, where are you taking me?’ [Lincoln’s lower right desk drawer was labell’d ’Assassination File’ -he had been receiving hate mail for 3 years many of which mention’d a plot to kidnap him … he us’d to quip to ‘Molly’ (Mary Lincoln, his wife) ‘Well, Mother - if a man is intent on killing me there’s not much I can do about it I suppose - but we can’t live our lives in fear & terror of assassination…’ These are just a few facts this short clip could have included - Lincoln died at the Peterson House having been laid out on a bed catty-corner wise because of his 6’4” size - at 7:04 am on 15 April 1865-Mary Lincoln apparently went ballistic when she finally realis’d he was dead…and never really recover’d-remaining in the White House for 7 months before finding the strength to pack up & leave…

Assassins creed 3 be like

Abraham Lincoln's body gard when he comes out the bathroom :what did I miss?😂😂😂😂😅😅

Lincoln’s bodyguard:since when was he asleep 💀💀💀

I'm pretty sure he was making a lot of noise while the play was going on And started yelling at a guy something like " Now you f***** u*, now you f***** u*, now you f***** u* , now you have f***** u*." Since honest abe Wasn't great at keeping quiet during plays , a gentleman told him to be quiet and he responded with the words above Causing the random play watcher to beat him to death with a hammer

"IT was an April fools prank bro" -booth 1865

Lincolns bodyguard: oh, I have some snacks for the play oh

Imagine if it was April 1 he would've been like April fools

"It's a cannon event boys"

Lincoln died the next day. So glad they caught Boothe and his fellow conspirators. Lincoln was truly one of our nation's greatest leaders.

Props to the guy that managed to record lincoln getting shot

“This play boutta slap like crazy blud”

Democrats did this
