![]() Around 3 p.m., the Earps and Holliday spotted the five members of the Clanton - McLaury gang in a vacant lot behind the OK Corral, at the end of Fremont Street. The famous gunfight that ensued lasted all of 30 seconds, and around 30 shots were fired. Though it's still debated who fired the first shot, most reports say that the shootout began when Virgil Earp pulled out his revolver and shot Billy Clanton point-blank in the chest, while Doc Holliday fired a shotgun blast at Tom McLaury's chest. Though Wyatt Earp wounded Frank McLaury with a shot in the stomach, Frank managed to get off a few shots before collapsing, as did Billy Clanton. When the dust cleared, Billy Clanton and the McLaury brothers were dead, and Virgil and Morgan Earp and Doc Holliday were wounded. Ike Clanton and Claiborne had run for the hills. This was the most famous gunfight in Western History. A minimum of over 20 movies have been produced through the years of Tombstone and The Gunfight at the OK Corral. Film clips from the famous movie Tombstone and a simulated gunfight in Tombstone, Az at the OK Corral. |
