So, how many bank robberies constitute "a lot"? Bonnie and Clyde robbed 14-15 banks, some more than once. As gang attrition to law enforcement took its toll, they turned to easier but less lucrative robberies, mainly small groceries. They both had physical disabilities that made walking difficult, and neither one was fleet of foot.
Bonnie was a diminutive 4'10" tall and weighed 90 lb, small even in those days. Her measurements were 34-23-33. She died age 23. *

Clyde was 5' 4-7" and age 24 at time of death. Their vital statistics vary by source.
They killed 13 people -- 9 of them lawmen, during a criminal career that lasted two years (1932-1934).
Part of their myth perhaps stems from their strong romantic bond, and of course, their fugitive life. The "Barrow gang" of about ten gangsters captured the attention of the national media and the country. Both came from poverty, and both had suffered physical abuse.
Easy to imagine them robbing some small, roadside grocery in the shade of tall cottonwoods on a hot summer afternoon. On one level, their story is captivating.
