The Life of Crazy Horse | Full Biography | Relaxing History ASMR

It would be cool if you did a video about The Osage Tribe.

Crazy Horse's family is still living. They wrote their own book Crazy Horse~Lakota Warrior and the Clown family is the best source of information om his life.

I loved the vision of the dancing horse and the lightning. Never take scalps, got it.

I'd like to hear more stories about indigenous Americans. Nobody ever tells their stories. I'm part Cherokee, but I know almost nothing about my tribe.

French and Indian war, Lewis and Clark and now Crazy Horse. I have already said it once and I'll say it again I love all things American Frontier. Thank you. 🙂

Wow, No Water is a brilliant name lol.

I’d honestly love to listen to you talking about just about everything, I think you covering the world wars would be very cool

this one's definitely another banger!!!

I’m an Oglala and a nerd, you’ve truly got something for everyone

If you do things about the wars, I never hear anyone talk about the German Occupation of the Channel Islands 1940-1945. I’m from one of the islands and it was the only part of British Territory that was invaded !!

Awake until the sign off, but only after several tries!

"Good Looking Woman" is a great name

I would really love to see non-eurocentric and indigenous history!!

I’d love a video on Coranderrk Station!

can you do a video about the Greek war of independence

Loved this one, would love to hear you cover the US Civil War or maybe just a Lincoln biography.
