Did someone tell Billy Idol? Apparently, with his rebel yell, she cried, MORE! MORE! MORE!

A group of wild-eyed Southern boys charging my way shrieking "Hillary's Thighs!" would scare hell out of me too...

Imagine the effect of 10,000 of them doing in all at once.

According to this website, here is an authentic rebel yell performed by living Confederate veterans. Unfortunately, they crack up and start laughing during the performance, ruining the effect.

I'd imagine that really would scare the sissy boy liberals from up north back then.

Sons of Confederate Veterans member Billy Idol re-enacts the infamous "Rebel Yell".

This is the kind of post that really sets this site above and beyond any and all other corners (?) of cyberspace. Good job!

If you saw the PBS series on the Civil War they had a film of some cofederate veterans marching in a parade. One of the vets gave a yell similar to the one posted here but with more of a corkscrew sound to it.

Post #30 on this thread (2nd link) has a .wav file that was taken from the video "Echoes of the Blue and Gray" during the last Gettysburg Reunion. It was done at the "angle" in Gettysburg when Confederate and Union veterans shook hands over the wall. Although the man is old, this is truly a "Rebel Yell" ... as for the other link on this thread... I've never heard it before.

How can you extrapolate the sound of one guy who was probably in his nineties to the sound of a troop of young men in their prime?

I think a rebel yell was pretty fearsome - enough to scare a whole corps of blue-bellies.
