    2:00. My god, please learn how to pronounce Beaufort correctly. It’s not pronounced how its spelled, it’s pronounced bowfort. It could just be my southern accent, but everyone I know pronounces it as bowfort

  2. Guodzilla Kaiju on October 7, 2022 at 7:58 am

    There’s an urban legend in Massachusetts that states Blackbeard’s skull resides in the Peabody-Essex Museum, Salem.

    Nice video. Please take a look at this video we just released on A Diver’s Life. It includes dives on a largely forgotten reef in Bonaire. We also filmed it at night. We were the first to dive this wreck at night. the colors will amaze you. We relate the story of its sinking in the video.

    My wife wrote Blackhearts and Blacksouls inspired by Blackbeard, after we visited Charleston and she learned more about his story. It’s a historical fiction.

  15. Dutch Patriot on October 7, 2022 at 8:08 am

    6:56 You just ignore the fact he took 20 sword cuts and 5 bullet wounds and when his head was cut off, the head roared ”Come on, edward!” and the body swimmed 3 times around the vessel before it sunk, you reall ignore that?

  16. Brycen Summar on October 7, 2022 at 8:09 am

    Don’t forget what the legend says it took to kill him 5 musket balls and 20 sword stabs

  17. Zachary Jasper on October 7, 2022 at 8:14 am

    I’m trying to find how they determined it was the Queen Anne’s Revenge for certain. It seems like the evidence is inconclusive

  18. Erik Holden on October 7, 2022 at 8:14 am

    Charleston North Carolina??

  19. Paid'nGames on October 7, 2022 at 8:15 am

  22. Jonah Cowans on October 7, 2022 at 8:21 am

    War of Spanish succession: 1701-1714. Not 1704. Think they must have misspoke.

  35. tony england on October 7, 2022 at 8:38 am

  40. W_Alexander on October 7, 2022 at 8:39 am

    Even though this video is old, the Inlet is pronounced Bo-Fert inlet, which is actually the correct way to say it. not beau-fert.

  41. bcask61 on October 7, 2022 at 8:41 am

    Blackbeard’s quartermaster, A man named Howard was granted deed by the king to Okracoke Island where he settled. Not too long ago, many people who lived on Okracoke could trace their ancestory to Howard.

  42. Matty DeJoy on October 7, 2022 at 8:41 am

    As soon as I heard the voice I knew I was bout to hear a story stretched to max compacity

  43. gsp0113 on October 7, 2022 at 8:43 am

    Minor correction: Beaufort, as in Beaufort Inlet, is pronounced "BOH-furt."

  44. MAC on October 7, 2022 at 8:48 am

    They should make a show/s of this mans life . Like a HBO one that’s historically factual with no over dramatizations of the actual drama that happened. Like he didnt kill anyone etc , dood on Blackflag that played him would be perfect.

  45. Monkey D. Luffy on October 7, 2022 at 8:48 am
