This was great. I met Slim at a rodeo in Bishop, CA. We were all dancing after the rodeo that night & bumped into him on the dance floor. I was in awh of how big he was because I was the one that bumped into him. I kept looking up to see the face to apoligize, & was shocked to see who it was. He called me Little Darling which just made me feel like a school girl. I was 21 then & just turned 71 this year. I will never forget him because we hung out with him for awhile. Such a kind & caring man. He is deeply missed.

“Your still a young gal” sung with the tower of power. I’m only 28, dad is same age as you. I was raised right.

A decade before he died, I met him in a bar in Pinedale, Wyoming. I was working on a drilling rig, and getting hassled by the Fish and Game people for living in the woods. Anyway, he was drinking tea and playing pool with some of us. Mostly oilfield and loggers, some of us ex-cowboys. He recruited some of us, saying they couldn't teach those city actors to really ride. We got free room and board at a dude ranch, and $100 a day if they called for you to be on set. It beat the Dickens out of a drilling rig. Slim Pickins played a drunk explosives expert, with us trying to dislodge some "sodbusters". The big scene was for some of us real cowboys to use ropes to drag a burning wagon load of dynamite through an arch and slam it into the porch. And we only had one take. That was why they wanted real cowboys. Those horses didn't understand the concept of blanks, as the defenders shot at us. They surely didn't approve of burning wagons. And it's a real dance number to maneuver bucking horses and a wagon through a gate. I was just a big kid, and that was the time of my life. Something you never forget. It was called 'The Sweet Creek County War', and it was a box office dud. But it has left a sweet taste in my mind for near fifty years now.

I was 16 and riding on the truck with my dad , when my dad had caught a glimpse of him at the 76 truckstop at lovelock nv. My dad had met him years before and had rode with him and Dale Robertson for a charity ride for the children's hospital in spokan wa. Well indeed slim had remembered the event and took to us like old friends , I was star struck and stayed that way , I've never forgotten my chance meeting with the man . He was one hell of a man and is what Cowboys were supose to be

John Lame Elk - I was wondering if you guys get any credits for your stunt or were you just considered as extras? My dad was born 1935 and was a newspaper delivery boy either around 1943 or 1945. Gene Autry was on the paper route. My dad became friends with Gene and remained as friends till Gene died. When Gene bought Melody Ranch (Monogram Ranch) in 1953, he invited my dad, whom was 18 years old by then, to check out the newly purchased property. Matter of fact, he came across a, I believe a movie prop that was left behind of a hand carved wood head of a cowboy which appeared to have been a whiskey bottle cork stopper. My dad asked if he could get a few friends to come to the studio and make their own "cowboy" home movie, I believe it was either 8mm or 16mm. Gene said it was ok. Back sometime during the 1990s it was transferred to VHS, which I still have to this day. Anyway, my point was that when Gunsmoke started filming at Melody Ranch my dad was there everyday and always watching from behind the cameras. He was there so much to the point that they had him doing "running in the street during gunfights" and various things as an "extra" When my dad passed away in 2018, I found many personal letters to my dad from Gene Autry. My dad even had Nudie Cohn, better known as Nudie's Western Tailor, to make replica of a shirt that Gene already had that was made by Nudie! ($2,000 in the 1950s) I finally had a chance to see all the autographed photos of all the stars he ever met. Slim Pickens was one of them. Also, I found many many personal photos of cowboy actors, no names written on the back of these photos, I believe a few of them are of Slim. I have no idea who most of them are. They appear to be mostly from the 1940 and 1950s

I'm almost 75 years old now and I grew up watching "Slim Pickens" in a great number of his roles to my manifest delight. I thank you for your biography of Mr. Pickens. I think you have done him the service he so richly deserves. May God bless him and You.

I was raised in the cowboy life on ranches and farms in Southern Arizona 1940's - 1960's. I came in contact with many a cowboy from all over the country and when meeting one with the Slim Pickens accent, I always came away having learned a decent value of life. The work was hard and the days were long but working with these men made it extremely enjoyable. I can say that I never heard an expletive uttered in their presence. I would be remiss if I failed to mention that among all these decent men, the most influential one was my very own father - REST IN PEACE DAD!

I always enjoyed watching Slim Pickens in the movies, he seemed like such a genuinely nice guy.

Cowboy hall of fame is in my great state. My dad is a semi famous bass player, in the credits for tower of power and 38 special. Old school funk. I used to help him set up his equipments at his CHOF gigs; and I loved walking around in there.

A man that seems to have accepted, appreciated, and took advantage of whatever life put on his plate

He had a unique voice and a good stage presence. Must have been pretty brave and athletic to do what he did. I always enjoyed his acting.

I loved all he did. One of my favorite parts he did was in "1941" when he was captured by the crew of a Japanese sub of the coast of California. He could play a bad guy and a good guy and a had a brand of comedy that was hilarious. No one like him ever. Miss him.

My dad was a professional calf roper in the 50's and 60's. i used to follow him around to all the rodeos of course as a small boy...at one show up in Canada he introduced me to Slim Pickens who he knew very well and Slim was working that rodeo as the clown act...he had a big Brahma Bull he used for his act that he used to saddle up and ride it while it jumped over barrels and things!!..i have pictures of me sitting on it!...at another rodeo, i was part of his act riding in this little powered car he had built and his trained dog chased me in it around the Arena...it was amazing to me to see him become a movie star later!.. (Edit- Slim had this big Stetson Hat that the dog jumped over and would climb up his back and steal the hat off his head!.. my part of the show was i came roaring in the Arena in this little car and picked up Slim's hat which was on the ground, put it on my head and then drove around the arena with the dog chasing me- who finally caught up to me and stole the hat back, off my head!..the funny thing was the hat was so big on my head i couldnt really see where i was going- but i imagine that got a lot of laughs in and of itself!)...Also it may be interesting to note, that according to my Dad, Slim would always track him down because he knew my Dad ALWAYS had ice cold Cokes in the Camper fridge- most all of the Cowboys at that time were drinkers, but my Dad wasnt and apparently Slim enjoyed a cold Coke more than a cold beer~

He had that special natural touch as an actor that only comes from being a real person and a guy with a great heart

Every time I watch a movie that has Slim Pickens in it I know I’m in for an extra special treat. Every single movie he’s in he really adds a big something to it.

I never realized that he died so young. He was an immediately recognized man and another of the great western entertainers of our wonderful western history. R.I.P.

Jerry Skinner has one of the most underrated channels on KZread. I just love watching his videos!! This video about Slim Pickens is a great example as to why I can’t stop. He’s a great story teller. Thank you, Jerry.

Thanks for sharing the tribute to our beloved Slim Pickens. He was always one of my favorites. Way back in the early seventies he attended the National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City, where he ran into a cowboy pool shark, my next older brother, and got into a little debt with him. When Slim got tired of getting beat he went to settle up with my brother but didn't have enough cash to do so. Slim offered my brother an IOU which was for a considerable amount of money for those days. My brother finally took it and they parted. A couple of days later Slim pulled into our drive across the border in Texas, and asked to see my brother. He not being there, Slim handed me folding money and told me with a laugh, to tell my pool shark brother to keep the blame IOU as a souviner. All I could do was smile and laugh with him. Just as a note, my brother wore coke bottle thick glasses. You'd never think that he could shoot pool to look at him. LOL

He was fantastic in Blazing Saddles. “Ah’m werkin’ fer Mel Brooks!”

As a 'superbly unique' character actor Slim was like 'indelible ink'. Once you saw him the impression just never wore off. Even today if you mention his name to someone familiar with classic western movies or the movie 'Dr. Strangelove' that person remembers Slim vividly. There'll never be another Slim Pickens.

Slim was a comic genius..."if we were flyin' any lower we'd need sleigh bells."

With apologies to others, he never said a 4 letter word, except in "1941" when he swallowed a Cracker jack compass so the Japanese sub couldn't Navigate, and they were having him sit on a bucket until he produced the compass. "you ain't getting $hit outta me"

A very fine, informative videography of Mr Pickens, one of my favorite American icons. Only 64 years old, but no one can argue he didn't live a full life with his love by his side for the better half of it. Some of us will never know such fulfillment. Thank you for this labor of love.

Great Man and great story (research) his legacy will always be remembered by his truest of friends. Thank you for sharing 👍

Instantly recognizable...his voice gave him away every time. I enjoyed all of his performances no matter which character he portrayed. A character actor who was virtually in dozens of Westerns on film and TV . He loved rodeo and was used in many, many such important sequences in both. I know they don't really make Westerns anymore and more's the pity. Perhaps there is nothing more to be portrayed on film but when I want something "different" to re--watch, it's almost always a Western. Slim Pickens, like Chill Wills, was always a fave!

Jerry, thank you for your hard work. I enjoy your Documentaries of all these famous people so much more than any others being produced. You represent all these people with great dignity and interest. Thank you.

A well done tribute to a really great performer. I've not seen Slim in many movies, but have seen him in many TV Westerns, like GUNSMOKE . I guess you couldn't mention all the things he did and appeared in, but Slim was a real performer. So sad that he passed on so early. Thanks for the Bio. Jerry.

Thanks Mr Skinner for this very well deserved tribute documentary in honor of Slim Pickens, a big rodeo star and a great actor. He gave a real cowboy touch in all his movies, even in those who wasn't westerns. His part in "Dr Strangelove" riding the atomic bomb like an untamed horse is absolutely iconic.
