Few of these powers are the ability to travel without leaving any tracks, ability to survive a gunshot and telepathy and telekinesis. When Mexican bandits killed his family in1858, he began to hate all Mexicans. His adversaries in that country named him Geronimo, which was the Spanish counterpart of Jerome.While fighting against both Mexican and US troops, he became famous for continually escaping his prison when captured and his bold exploits. He and his troops evaded their enemies for as long as a year, making him earn the title "worst Indian who ever lived" among the white men. His people were the last major force of autonomous Indian warriors who denied the United States Government in the American West.
