This is the TRUE STORY of Peaky Blinders | The Real Thomas Shelby

My great uncle was a pesky blinder….. lived on slade road road Erdington…. He was a debt collector, who had an office at the Dunlop…. He laid bets for the workers and collected….. tough man. He got deported from Canada for killing a man in bare knuckle fight

Hearsay

That mugshot of Thomas Giles straight up looks like Justin Townes Earle.

Uhm.. the razorblade wasnt even invented at the time...

Thomas Shelby is a fictional character

Literally everyone in commments are decends of peaky blinders 😅😂😅😂 . Fools

They did not put razor blades in their caps.

bro is this an ai channel?

It's the dapper attire for me.❤❤❤

Brilliant series!

Does anyone feel like Thomas Gilbert looks like Dr Phil😅

I don’t want the show canceled!!!! 😢

Nice

Twitch tts voice 😂 xQcl

wtf is this garbage voiceover? get this shout out of yt

My grandparents are from Birmingham on my mothers side and sicily and london on my fathers side .I wouldnt be surprised if my british grandfather was into some shit like this ,plus he had alot of brothers too

The show was a stretch. Total fiction.

size dont matter

Hey.. wazup.. CAFE RACER ..❤

This is mostly complete and utter made up bollocks.

Razor one not true

In season 1 episode 1 ..I believe towards the ending when they are purchasing the horses with the gypsy's /Roma travelers ...and they got into the scuffle with the. 3 men and they spoke in the old Roma language and he said the Shelby's their father was the king of the Roma the translation was not there and it really upset me what they meant to say was their father was the king of the gypsies/Roma just FYI for people to know because the translation wasn't a 100% I wonder why they translated that wrong??the father was the king but the king of what ?? the man said Roma , which is a proper way to say gypsies or travelers Just wanted to let people know that's what he meant that the Shelby's father was the king of the gypsies or the Roma. By the way it's absolutely true story

Maybe you should get your facts straight if you wanna be know on youtbe as a history channel.

19 seconds in and that fvckin robot voice ruined it for me😒im out

They did Billy Kimber dirty.

Thanks, for this video. I learned alot from this video, about the real Peaky Blinders. The show Peaky Blinders is very good. A dear friend of mine put me on the show.

TERRANCE OUT

Those " Peaky Blinders " mugshots at the end are BS if you look at the info below the pics they are all born between 1901 and 1911 ....... Not good .......

Dope story

Dope story

there is no real tommy shelby

Checking the heights of the real blinders, they would be judged as short for women in current times

How funny not one black face in Birmingham.😂

These were some wee folk back then avg ht 5'5". the tallest 5'10

Drunk thugs who would rob prople nothing more.

Boring

Awful narration!!

I lived near epsom were it kicked orf pub still there boozer

The desk sergeant had beautiful handwriting for the perps arrest sheet beneath the mugshots.

There was an actual group named peaky blinders in Victorian England but there wasn't any REAL THOMAS SHELBY. The members were quite different people with different names and back stories. They somehow has been the tele series influenced adding some fictional characters

Oooh stealing bikes.. you’re ‘ard

It seems the series gang conducted a higher level of crimes than the real one, either way the character of Thomas Shelby performed so well he has been approached by some high level producers to make a movie. The way he puffs on those cigarettes makes me want to start smoking again :-)

I'm an ex-bookie from Birmingham of Romany heritage, but my name isn't Shelby 💯

Where can I find the music?

No they did not use razors in the hats

5'1"- 5'6" for all but one at 5'10.5". Battle of the little people.

Billy Kimber is the most real person from the series, and a lot of Thomas Shelby's story arcs from season 1 to 3 follow the pattern of the real Kimber's life. But even Kimber never made it as far up as the fictional Thomas Shelby.

I gave up on this show after 5 minutes of rubbish Birmingham accents.
