Riding through moonlit roads with a red cloak and a pistol at his side, Dick Turpin became one of England’s most famous highwaymen.

In the 1730s, he robbed travelers on horseback and escaped into legend—his crimes exaggerated into daring adventures, his name whispered with fear and admiration. But behind the romance was a dangerous outlaw living on borrowed time.

In 1739, the legend ended.
Captured.
Tried.
Executed.

This video explores how a real criminal became a folk hero, and how myth often outlives the truth.

Was Dick Turpin a fearless outlaw… or just a criminal history chose to remember differently?
