Virgil Edwin Earp (April 19, 1879 – November 20 1959) was the son of Newton Jasper Earp, Wyatt Earp’s half-brother. Newton and Wyatt had the same father, Nicholas Porter Earp (September 6, 1813 – February 12, 1907). Born in Tombstone, Arizona in 1879, Virgil learned the ways of the Wild West quickly. By the time he was 18 years old in 1897, he was the Sheriff of Paradise Valley, Nevada. He eventually moved to Sacramento, California in 1909. In 1918, Virgil listed on his WWI draft registration card that he worked as a collector and solicitor for the San Francisco Chronicle. In 1943, he listed on his WWII draft registration card that he worked at the Sacramento Air Depot, McClellan Field, Sacramento, California. This game show was called “The $64,000 Question” and aired in 1958.

Dam 1 question is like 100 questions 😅
F*ck what a question, sheesh I’m stuck on the trail name..
YouTube keeps history alive in today’s era.
This day and age.. we learn to question EVERYTHING! I wonder if this was really Virgil's son and being on TV who knows what to believe anymore
This is … Amazing! to have actual accounts from people who actuallylived there. Man if we had videos of cavemen lol.
Looks alot like a narrative show lmao
He doesn't know history. He LIVED history
When he was born Billy the kid was still active, Jessie James was too, and his uncle hadn't yet took part in the Gunfight in Tombstone, the civil war wasn't but 14 years over, and Geronimo was roaming the plains, and the railroad was an ambitious dream slowly becoming reality….. Incredible…
We need more men like him, strong men creat good times, good times creat weak mean, weak men creat bad times, so now we are in need of strong men
Well from what I know now there has been a total of 3 owners of the 6666 ranch.

This you can call a real human hero. And his descendens can be proud and should follow him. This is mankind at its purest….
So cool!!
Different breed of humans in those days. Music was pretty bad tho
How he still alive?
yea Wyatt made 250.00 a month, not counting the whore houses he owned!
One heck of a question(s).
How wonderful!
$64.000 dolars in 1958 would be worth the same as $656,190.45 in 2022
but in the year of 1879, $64.000 dolars would be worth $2,154,989.09 in 2022 money
79 years old gentleman
Game was rigged in his favor. Masons. Did you hear what he said at the end during the closed hand shake?
3:55 So much US propaganda. They're saying a hwytie fought an Indian chief in hand to hand and killed him. More like used a gun. And it's no surprise the US government awarded him, they too were terrorists!
I was born in the 70's…now it's 2022…fascinating & awesomely great & thankful to listen to a person from 1800's…thank you👏👏
Crazy questions
What the hell, he probably didn't go to school. What a crooked show!
So virgil Earp was born in 1843 and died in 1905
Wow! How well do you know your history lessons?! We certainly don't force ourselves to remember things like that anymore, myself included! Incredible!
That man was amazing and just slaughtered all of those questions. Guess his father was Virgil Earp, the brother of Wyatt. I think Virgil was the oldest brother but I could be mistaken. Wyatt Earp is buried 10 miles from where I live in Colma, CA.
They also should’ve given him a bonus for railing off 10 questions and him remembering that. Lol
This question had a lot of questions
