wanting compensation for investing dozens of hours of researching, writing, recording and editing isn't normally called greed, it's called "wanting to put food on the table"
Imagine getting kidnapped by pirates only for them to lock you in the brig and them telling you over and over again you need to believe in yourself and keep working hard.
Could you please do a video on the religious views of pirates? I’d love to see if they ever tried to reconcile their Christian beliefs with their way of life.
I don't know if pirates used this method, but on Dutch VOC ships there was also a punishment in which the condemned would be pinned to the mast with a knife or dagger stabbed through his hands against the mast. I think he would hang with his stabbed hands on the knife/dagger for a whole day. This punishment was for crew members who did stealing, if I'm correct.
I’d love to know a bit more detail about social life aboard a pirate ship - cliques/friendships among the crew, how crews made up of voluntary pirates and forced recruits might interact with each other, whether pirate crews were harmonious or factional. Don’t know how much documentation there is on that kind of thing. But yeah, some of the details about how a group of 100-200 people act when they’re stuck on a boat together and drinking a lot but also have to work together to keep a ship sailing.
Thx for pointing out it wasn't really that logical. As people's brains die they often just get mean, whether it be from dementia, cocaine, or from syphilis, lead, alcoholism, scurvy, and a dozen other causes.
Bonjour Capitan just to say what a beautiful job you doing. Am from the island of Mauritius 🌴300 year its bien how there will say .the blood of your 4 father live in us today We live by hearing them all the time Form little boy pirates are how Historic. So thank you sir
when I was a kid I did see some cartoon where pirates had electric eels inside glass jars as a form of lighting, don't remember what the series was named however
Putting slow match between the fingers seems to have been a favourite of the Dutch East India Company. It was used against the "Batavia" mutineers in 1629, and again on two sailors accused of sodomy by the crew of the "Zeewijk" in 1727.
17:37 this image here is a William Hogarth illustration of the Bedlam madhouse, the person with the spyglass and the person behind drawing the globe are people trying to solve the longitude problem. This was a reference to a saying at the time, that trying to solve the longitude problem will only lead to madness.
I think that walking the plank would be a pretty horrific form of torture. If they took their time with it you would have to slowly convince yourself to jump overboard, knowing that you would your drown. Then you would finally jump overboard and then the long terrible experience of drowning comes. You paddle and kick for a while, but eventually you get tired. More tired than you've ever been before. Your last ditch survival instincts kick in and you get a second wind and continue to tread water. Eventually you cant go any further and you drown, all while still holding out for hope. Horrific.
Yes, if the pirates also had scoreboards to rate the plank walkers dive and how long they would last the sharks gathering to the butcher's kitchen garbage thrown overboard.
Wonderfully dark video for the October season. I was aware of what Every and his crew did to the women on the Gunsway and of the accusations thrown at Morgan, but this was an eye opening experience. I knew Low was pretty bad, damn he was incredibly vicious. Puts Vane to shame with ease. Makes me wish he didn't have a good end, but of course his end is ambitious.
Running the gauntlet is now a military celebration, where people newly promoted or decorated run between columns of their platoon mates while getting the rank or ribbon punched into their bodies. Or otherwise just punched. I didn’t know where that came from till this video.
I grew up in the south florida redlands before it was totally drained and devoloped by a family going back in that region to when it was the edge of the known world and the stories i wwas scared with as a child and even as an adult truth be told was MANCHINEEL torture from the seminole wars
Hey! I binge-watched all your videos in the last couple weeks. You present history in a honest and down to earth manner and I greatly appreciate it, plus your videos have a soothing effect thanks to the way you speak and the excellent music you always choose. My favourite video of yours is the one about William Dampier and you totally got me into reading his books! I have only the best wishes for you and your channel. This being said, I missed how you usually use music, in this one the type of music you chose and the low volume made it very unusual, as in a neutral, horizontal-moving way, I'm not criticising the video. Video was awesome but felt... kinda weird? Guess you spoilt me so far!
I heard of a method of stopping a crack on the ship, by diving under the ship holding a sheet, sometimes the guy would die tangled with the sheet or get caught between the sheet and the ship, but it would hold the flooding giving time to the repair being made from the inside.
Please do research on the women pilots the pirate scientist William Dampier mentioned. It's not clear if they were european or native women. It could be Spanish or island native women of the Spanish galleon they captured. Dampier had Spanish crew as friends. It would make sense they knew the galleon route to qualify as navigators. Or maybe they were Maguindanaon Asian women who were of a seafaring race knowing the sea route from the pacific to Indian ocean. Dampier asked the crew to vote on allowing a woman candidate the chance to navigate the ship so it means a real woman with that potential skill was present. He lost the vote though. The native women called pagalay or shore friends (chat mates) spoke Spanish and Dutch who were already there before the English came. They could also speak Arabic from the Arab missionaries who came to convert them to Islam. Arabic was the international language at the time for most of the world. European sailors needed to learn it. Such women would be valuable translators as well.

According to some people, the most horrifying torture used by pirates is not paying for stuff they download.
Go figure.
Aye 😂😂😂

Pirates dont believe in fairytales
@@LDN76reddit
Something about if i say sorry Jesus every time i kill or torture someone that doesn't count, religious criminals usually use this mental gymnastic
@@LDN76What do you mean? sailors were incredibly superstitious:P
Boringggg

I think something like the average day in the life of a pirate would be interesting
Yes I’d really like to see this
ruclips.net/video/JOCt7z5CJbE/видео.htmlsi=sxsYpQsoBx7sCtRz
Kind of ironic how we celebrate piracy or dress as pirates despite their historic violence and torture.
Hello love your content! I would love to see a video on how well fictional pirate ships would fair in real life
I cant believe you managed to make me like pirates even more
Ayo what??

“Something not even a Turk or Moor would do.” Is wilddddd
“That’s some big brain thinking” 😂😂 Such a great channel
What a great addition to my FRIYAY!
Very brutal, pirates really are something to fear.
13:21 No! Not the Boo Box!
Thanks for suggestions to implement in my ttrpg campaign 👍
I think I'll skip being a pirate and keep my day job.
How about crab feeding? After watching The House of the Dragon, I figured I might be seeing some of that here.
This is my favorite history channel by far.

I can just imagine a pirate using eels to get information, ahh the days before batteries 😂

Whoa. Very intense video. Thanks for making it informative and disgusting and avoiding cheap sensationalism.
17th century was pretty good actually. Atleast for us

Was the quote in the beginning about the French as a whole or about a particular French guy?
I think it's about François L'Olonai
Hmmm... they didnt even mention the big poofy shirt torture...
By pirates for pirates 😂
I mean.. they descended from Buccaneers. It only makes sense that they'd cook people lol
well ! for his topic it's sure you talk about Edward low !
Can you do a video on butt pirates?
I doubt this video is monetised.
17:38
Torture yeah

I should be working right now, but how else would I understand the horrifying torture methods used by pirates...
pirates weren't unlike cartel members today.

Unstable time periods seem to breed innovations in cruelty, necklacing in South Africa is a good modern example to complement these.
Day like 6 of asking for a video on what happened to the children of pirates
Obviously they were eaten alive
I don't take video requests unless if you pay me, RUclips is my job and these videos require effort to produce.
@@GoldandGunpowder oh ok
@@GoldandGunpowder Spoken like a true Pirate! 💰
At guess, if the children survived, they'd need to turn to crime. Maybe becoming pirates?

@@toldyouso5588 oh yeah I forgot about the sharks
That's why I recommend everyone learn the "survival float". You never know...

You just make a friday even better.
It would have been better if this had been uploaded last week on Friday the 13th.
12:59 there is a good portral of Running the gauntlet in the tv series Hornblower in the episode The Examination for Lieutenant.
Running the gauntlet is now a military celebration, where people newly promoted or decorated run between columns of their platoon mates while getting the rank or ribbon punched into their bodies. Or otherwise just punched.
I didn’t know where that came from till this video.
Think it dates back to Rome

How many intros does a 16 min video need. Get on with it! You don’t work for the BBC.

nah man the music is perfect for this episode. he should use music more
Is that sound effect at the beginning from Medieval 2 Total War? It sounds incredibly familiar.
yeah executing captives
Playing Nickelback on the fife and drums.
The fact any torture has happened to anyone is an irredeemable crime. Humans
I’m gonna be out for the weekend. It’s gonna be a real torture not being able to watch the livestream tomorrow 😔
Don't worry you can watch it later some other day
10:01 a naughtical punishment if you will
Could u pls do a bio of Ned Low ,miss urs Pirates bios ,like Charles Vane.
Anyway keep the good work sailer
I would like a video about Edward Low too.
Just helping out the algorithm
10:07 Kinky.
will you be reviewing the “historically accurate” pictures of jack sparrow submitted from the requested at the end of the potc accuracy video?
I heard of a method of stopping a crack on the ship, by diving under the ship holding a sheet, sometimes the guy would die tangled with the sheet or get caught between the sheet and the ship, but it would hold the flooding giving time to the repair being made from the inside.
