I have heard this theory before and I thought it made sense. 3 weeks ago I had an accident which made me blind to one eye (it’s coming back, so don’t worry, doctors are amazing these days!) Anyway, I can only use one eye at the moment for a few coming weeks, and it made me realise how bloody clumsy one can be just using one eye! You can’t see distance with one eye, so you would be really crap in a sword fight to defend yourself or to kill an enemy cause you can’t see how far are! I thought you can get used to it, but as I am like this for 3 weeks now I can confirm that you can’t! It also blocks you to see an attack coming from the side you have the eyepatch on which I would not recommend in a battle! So I don’t think it would worth to block one eye constantly just for getting faster to get used to a dark place!
I lost my eye 15 years ago. You adapt, yes, but it is never like before.
Someone finally explained why sailors wore an eye patch. I have been saying this for many years... that it makes their eye adjusted for dark areas below deck but, no one believed me.
Too many people get their false historic info from Hollywood movies.
Pirates rarely sunk a ship they were printing before looting it, that wold defeat their purpose and sometimes even took over the ship for their use. The Hollywood version of violent hand combat rarely happened to board a ship
A pirate simply pulled along side a ship and threatened to sink it with all aboard but invited those aboard to join them which they often did to escape death.
A pirate ship was true form of democracy and the captain was determined by the crew....and could be easily voted out.
BTW they were referred to as Buccaneers because they often went to an island and cooked food on a French style barbecue of the day called a "Buccan"
.
Great info! Thanks!
I heard an interesting theory that claimed the eye patches were worn after years of using a sextant to navigate and doing damage to their eye.
Holy shit 😮I didn’t know that and I’m 48 wow and I’m wearing one as I’m watching ur video cuz their something wrong with my left eye now but anyways thanks for this video
What's also "amazing" is how modern highway engineers seem to have forgotten what pirates knew centuries ago! We seem to be having more and more motor vehicle accidents at night, particularly, vehicle vs pedestrian accidents. Yet, when you actually take a hard look at our modern culture, we see the driver is constantly being bombarded with light that bleaches his night vision. We used to be concerned about oncoming driver's with their high beams in our faces, now, modern low-beam headlights look like supernova's coming at us in comparison. Bright lights from all our MFD screens, tablets, and phones in our faces constantly in our faces. Our night vision is non-existent to see anything anymore. And, nobody seems to correlate this as a function of safety. Pirates were pretty smart for being so privative. It seems, the "smarter" we are, the dumber we become (as a culture). Light discipline: Pilots know this too, which is why they don' t like lights shining in their faces.
But but Captain Jack Sparrow of Pirate Of The Carribean didn't wore them
Aye. Guessing he was just too drunk
