    Tauwk much?

    4 min in and there’s a heavy gloss over the fact that piracy and privateering were both people stealing from merchants of different countries, just one had permission from a monarch, and the other didn’t. Legalized theft is still theft 🤷

    Why did they start slapping themselves?

    I Kidd you not! Stepping over the line, is going outlaw! Politicians flipping and changing laws, at a whim, like China CCP and Russia, and Iran! Surprise you’re a criminal now! Welcome to your execution! Trump’s rules,!

    I just started watching Survivor season 7 (Pearl Islands) and became fascinated with learning more about pirates.

    I remember liking pirates and pirate related stuff ever since I played an old Disney game that shut down years ago but was brought back by the community called Pirates of the Caribbean Online. Now known as the legend of pirates online. Good memories.

    The young lady singing at the 42min mark is INCREDIBLE!

    They Executed ALL of Rackham’s Crew including 9 people who were caught drinking w the crew! Black Bart was Captured and taken in leading to him being made a Pirate, or Pyrate back in the day. He was Captured by pirate Captain Howell Davis. Davis was later ambushed and killed by the Governor he was trying to kidnap on the island of Príncipe. Bart was elected Captain, later came back to that Island, landed in the darkness of night, killed a large portion of the male population, and stole all items of value that they could carry away.

    Great presentation!

  21. @jaredspottsNoCab on December 4, 2023 at 8:38 am

    Man Assassin Creed Black Flag game was a very awesome game and had most of these pirates in it 😉

  22. @sundaefunday4778 on December 4, 2023 at 8:39 am

    so your saying blackbeard cut off his crewmates fingers? for their rings? there is plenty of evidence that edward teach was actually an educated man, and was a gentille, never killing a single person himself in all his raids.

  23. @Ep0nz on December 4, 2023 at 8:39 am

    Way to play down the Blackbeard battle…the truth is it was a 2v1 ship wise, with Blackbeard having both ships running away, until they turned around and caught his ship in a trap. This is AFTER the two ships had waited ALL night into early morning to ambush Blackbeard and his crew after a heavy night of drinking.

  24. @ashleyholliday3084 on December 4, 2023 at 8:42 am

    is this appropriate for 6th graders to watch?

    Why hasn’t anyone mentioned white beard ?

    Too much singing. Stay in your lane.

  28. @4thamendment237 on December 4, 2023 at 8:51 am

    British royalty didn’t like pirates because they threatened the social order. Because it’s all right if you plunder whole other countries and call it empire building; but when your own people just plunder some ships that are bringing the plunder of countries, somehow that’s a crime.

    Democracy with extreme violence, piracy! It’s all fun and rum, till they hang you?

  32. @bryanb7050 on December 4, 2023 at 8:55 am

    Yes, funny, isn’t it. Well, cheerio (in a heavy, Americanized British accent whilest sippy my tea pinky out)

  36. @user-xf1tp1mm5h on December 4, 2023 at 8:58 am

    I think that I am attracted to the raw direct form of democracy. Not unlike my teenaged friend group. I imagine that not unlike Romulus and Remus’s gang haunting the Alban Hills, or where ever it is that they haunted. Cause it was fun fun fun til her daddy took the Tbird away. Daddy Woodes Rodgers.

    This music these musicians aren’t very good

  38. @user-yp9fb1jb6m on December 4, 2023 at 9:01 am

    That spirit is reviving. Western governments are getting so oppressive, they are encouraging the rebellious nature. Decentralization is in the wind!

  39. @Hereforthevids. on December 4, 2023 at 9:02 am

    Wow!

  40. @riley4177 on December 4, 2023 at 9:02 am

    I wonder if the admiralty ever spanked anyone with the silver oar…

    Ads from YouTube… Tolerable.
    Ads in the 5th minute from the developer advertising their own brand? Couldn’t have waited for the end like normal people huh… Won’t watch from this channel again!

  43. @goodn13ht on December 4, 2023 at 9:06 am

    Great documentary. Could do without the corny folk singing.

  44. @hellboundrubber4448 on December 4, 2023 at 9:07 am

    I think the sinking of Port Royale is what ended Piracy.

  45. @user-hf8ie8mf3n on December 4, 2023 at 9:08 am

    Sadly I’m old enough to remember when Pirates were young….🤪

  46. @jourdre on December 4, 2023 at 9:09 am

    Where’s the One Piece comment? I guess I’ll make it

  47. @joshburns4863 on December 4, 2023 at 9:09 am

    Unfortunately this doc gets too many things wrong.

  48. @adanedwardspencer6891 on December 4, 2023 at 9:10 am

    Yes, illegal means "if the Government doesn’t get anything out of it, it’s ILLEGAL! What a bloody joke!

  49. @rickmills4801 on December 4, 2023 at 9:10 am

    Everybody knows that panic makes you stupid, especially if you’re not that smart to begin with, and this program (and others) makes it appear that the man wasn’t really a smart guy.

  50. @brandonwilson5311 on December 4, 2023 at 9:12 am

    This dude is a Pirate…. he serves as a " Rear Admiral "
