How Did Queen Victoria Survive 7 Assassination Attempts?

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
As Britain's second-longest reigning monarch, Queen Victoria ruled Great Britain and Ireland from 1837 until her death in 1901. If her would-be assassins had gotten their way, that reign would have been a lot shorter. Queen Victoria survived no fewer than seven - or technically eight - assassination attempts during her long tenure as ruler of England but was only injured once. Her husband, Prince Albert, supposedly threw himself in front of the Queen while protecting her. Somehow, all seven of her almost-assassins all escaped with their lives, but most were sent to Britain's felon-riddled penal colony, Australia

I suppose what she meant when she said being shot at made one realize how loved they are was to the fact that most of her would be assassins were stopped by members of the general public and it made her realize that she was adored by the common people, or at least the majority that thought trying to kill a public figure was uncouth and barbaric. Im sure at least the Londoners and English/maybe Scots and Welsh loved her, doubtful the Irish did.

Tasmanian or Tazzie is Australia, it's one of our 6 states, the Island State or the Apple Isle as it's known. I don't think ppl outside of Australia know our states & territories which is fine but it's not it's own country. Australia is pronounced Straya too

. always love the assassination attempt on Andrew Jackson when he was in his 80s, two pistols misfires and the constables had to pull Jackson off the man that he was beating with his cane. those British queens are pretty tough ladies.

How could Peel have been thinking like Sherlock Holmes? Holmes was a fictional character besides which the Holmes novels were not written until 1892 50 years after the second and third assassination attempts.

I feel like Victoria having a long reign is more admirable than Elizabeth since that time there were diseases and people tried to kill each other more and the security wasn't as good.

Leaders stage assassination attempts to make them look immortal, oldest play in the book. The punishments are too lenient, the killers are too young, they are not killers.

Could you do a video of the drama of the Royals throughout Europe.
Plus a story on the Harkles that is Harry and Meghan what do people actually think of them?

reply

Its hilarious to think how out of all these failed assassination attempts, only the one with a stick/cane had actually got to bruise her
reply

Wonder why the penalties for trying to kill a queen were so varied and actually more lenient than I expected. No hung drawn and quartered
reply

She wasn't that great. Many disadvantages and irrational rules was set for woman in her era. A nightmarish time for women.

She did in her rocks rule ireland. Ireland was doing everything in its power to get rid of her so she botched the job of it.

After watching its a Videos so many times I just realize they said free Wi-Fi and free Netflix on the wall of the asylum

Lucky for her none of her would be assassins were the slightest bit competent.
None of that makes her a badass.

A Hunchback Dwarf tried to kill Victoria in 1842. --Come on History! I'm trying to take you seriously.
reply

For the most part these are pretty pathetic attempts. at least make sure the gun works properly and is loaded

Bean's story is a sad one. Thank goodness that disabled/handicapped people don't have to live like that anymore.
reply

Wow. She must have really pissed off the bank. They are the only ones who actually assassinate anyone.
