Yakima Canutt broke a wild bronco when he was 11 years old. As a 6-foot-tall sixteen-year-old he started bronc riding at the Whitman County Fair in Colfax Washington, in 1912 and at 17 he won the title of World's Best Bronco Buster. Canutt started rodeo riding professionally and gained a reputation as a bronc rider, bulldogger and all-around cowboy. Canutt practiced and perfected his most famous stunts, including the drop from a stagecoach that he would employ in John Ford's 1939 Stagecoach.
