Biographics can we please have a history of Anne Bonny

😂

MikDan 88 Mmm hmmm

Beat me to it. Now I'll seem to have copied.

Infact Callico Jack was the inspiration for Jack Sparrow... notice the Jack? 👍

@@MastaToSch Had to look it up well because I don't believe everything in the comments. Who'd have thought. Thanks for the info. Makes some good reading.

Same as jack Sparrow lol

Lousy pirate yet an early pioneer of corporate branding.

@@christophermerlot3366 Steve Jobs?

Les Filibustiers in French

captain, captain jack sparrow

The real me.

Such famous pirates , Long John.Silver, Captain.Sparrow, and Captain James Hook, " I'll. Get you for this, Peter Pan !!",

@@johnbockelie3899 I hear Peter Pan gave up piracy and moved up north to Somaliland (away from the coast) to help the plight of their people...

He's Sparrow's father btw

West Ruidl I thought the same thing when I first read it. I've heard of the guy but dnt knew very little about him.

Same

Not the worse, but definitely in the bottom ten.

Good job! You read that correctly. He was one of the worst pirates ever!

Same

He was indeed a I loved that show so underrated

Very much so. Rackham was one of my favorite characters.

... a show..

Brilliant show!

Yeah, Black Sails is far from historically accurate (being a mash of historical and Treasure Island characters), but it is a great watch, especially when you know which are the historical figures to watch out for.

billyyank right? It sounds like one of David Bowie’s personas from the 70’s

Jack Rackam the only pirate I'm subscribed to....that I know of.

Well look like rackam spend his rema8ning life on youtube now

Jack. We meet again ^^

I feel the same, you're my favorite pirate!!!!!! ever since I was a Kid

These pirate stories are worthy of the history guy.

Truth

It was climatic though

@Stephen braden Tortuga is a tiny island off the coast of Hispaniola that was so insignificant that the Spanish never bothered to seriously settle it or even have a permanent military presence there. Pirates build the entire island up from the ground and it was the centre of piracy for over 4 decades. It's the founding place of the Brethren of the Coast and saw the cooperation between English, French, Dutch, German, and African pirates. Nassau was already settled for over a half a century and pirates just moved in after the French and Spanish destroyed the local fort, making it defenceless. And after only a decade they were pushed out again. Literally every romanticised thing about pirates you know comes from Tortuga, the only major thing Nassau gave us was the pirate republic of Nassau itself.

@@asuka7309 Ummmmm wow I thought that Tortuga was just a made up place for a movie. Thanks for setting that straight. I'll be doing some reading up on it now.

Tortuga's name comes from the Spanish word for turtle. Turtles were invaluable as food for shipwrecked sailors, privateers and pirates. There are two islands bearing this name. The one that is famous is Tortuga, just above Haïti's Port-de-Paix (Port of peace). Then there's the Isla de la Tortuga just above Venezuela and some islands dubbed 'dry tortugas' because they had turtles but no fresh water.

@Agent J Heh. No. Don't insult Tortuga with that comparison.

Asuka-San FTW

Is this from Black Sails?

Yes, one of the best moments from the show​@@jean-luceyesofyoureyes5502

"Is he well hung" "We'll see once Rogers gets hold of him"

The naval combat is particularly good. The portrayal of the Spanish Man o War was truly terrifying

So good. Stellar cast.

@@gerrye114 unfortunatly the British redcoats are piss poor I have seen better movement and orders in Empire total war from the ai. In one scene they move and fire before the order is finished ouch

I HATED the pilot but since I like the theme of pirates I continued watching it anyway, I'm glad I did.

@@mcstabba I recently rewatched the series and the pilot was truly horrific... It's hard to recommend it to friends 'cause they have to get through the pilot

Especially being 337 years old.

Pretty sure if he were alive today, he'd be addicted to meth and in prison for stealing someone's iphone.

@@rodziegman , Seconded... alas. The time in which Jack lived made it possible.

Cue Pugwash theme😊

He sounds like an old school Florida man. Does stupid things, but rather harmless when confronted with true authority

Same

He was supposed to have a set of missions with him for Edward, but was cut for time. So yeah, what we got was more or less what was described in the video, only drunker and with a less feisty Anne.

He was in Black Flag? *re-downloads the game*

@@Qardo Yeah but he's a minor character and more of a dick than his Black Sails counterpart. If anything, he might as well have been the most accurately portrayed pirate in that game, though his affair with Anne was rather short.

Love that game

She was most likely a tomboy.

Yeah I wanna see a biographics of Anne Bonny she's totally Awesome ⭐👍🏿⭐👍🏿⭐👍🏿⭐

Yep ... those “rum goggles “ will get you in trouble 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yet somehow able to manage a threesome before he died. Rock bottom intelligence, but maxed out charisma stat.

Cowardice, or common sense? One of the very very very few cards a woman could pull in world where women have every other possible disadvantage

He was the Mr. Irrelevant of the Pirate world.

Even great pirates have been forgotten, so Jack couldn't have been that bad.

John Stockwell, hung for piracy in (I think) 1805, well after the "golden age" and now forgotten or at least obscure, but he did get rich from his piratical career. My wife is one of his descendants.

You need to understand that when Rackham was caught, piracy had radically been downsized. He had taken the mass pardon in 1718 and tried to retire, and thus the larger crew had disbanded. When he returned to piracy in 1720 his crew measured just 14 people. The crew was simply too small to take on rich ships, and when Rackham was caught, the pirate hunters had two ships and 40 people between them.

There is a very good „ruining history“ video about them ^^

aww yeah women are cool too!

IKR?! This was sort of a small bio of Anne Bonny but I want to hear more!

@@violetflower91 Shane crushes it w that series, I wish they'd let the Goul boys off there backs need some rest carrying BuzzFeed, and let Shane do ruining history again ALAS Ryan and Shane's channel the watcher has Shane {ShaneEack here} doing something similar but w puppets, it's great

There’s a brilliant series on audible called Hell Cats that’s all about Anne and Mary

Where have you read that?

Maybe that's *because* she drank so much rum

Thank you adventurer of the past

Well, before modern sensibilities they were the same thing.

Sounds very American to me. Just as the tribal peoples.

It was the only way to make a real living then on the seas. Merchant ships paid little to nothing, even by the standards of the time. As a pirate you got much more per job. Hands down I would be a pirate.

@@outlawJosieFox Yeah, I'd love for you to cite a culture that attuned itself to modern moral sensibilities in their political actions across human history that still exist. Moralists are rarely empiricist. There are no good guys and bad guys, just winners and losers in conflicts and their empirical consequences.

Why not? What do you think capitalism is

Two whole months as a pirate and most likely the reason they were caught, He gave up and this act most likely saved her life and she insulted him for it

She sounded like bad luck. I guess the pirate model was right

@@stempo1 Yeah, both women survive because he made his crew surrender a fight they had no chance of winning... but here we are talking about how badass she is for insulting him after this?

@@stempo1 i mean, she very clearly was ok with dying and not being captured and having the same fate as other pirates, the actual reason she was saved was because she was pregnant, just that

Oi bruv

I’m really surprised this wasn’t the first comment made! I was almost five minutes in when I realized that he was talking about Nassau, Bahamas 🇧🇸.

I thought it was Nah- saw. It's definitely not na- Sow

@@brianbarrett2487 But they don't. I've been there twice, on dive trips. The locals say it like we [Americans] do. Is Whistler not English?

The sow. That's what I heard.

Fantastic game! If you haven't seen, I recommend watching the show Black Sails. Fantastic show!

@@Zeithri Yes, a friend of mine suggest it to me. Thanks for reminding me

Getting misty-eyed again thinking about Calico Jack and all the rest while Anne Bonny sang "Parting Glass."

3 min. in the video i put black flag on download :D

My favorite Assassin's Creed. Very enjoyable except for the Abstergo stuff.

I was hoping for a mention, or a bonus fact, about the flag.

Yup one of the best characters in the show

@@brucecarpenter6420 I was surprised that it didn't come up in the video myself

@@vikingodin1986 the greatest ever

No. The most well known jolly roger flag is the skull and crossbones flag, which wasnt his

The opening by Bear McCreary for me, may watch 1st season again today

Oh my gosh yes I love that show it's so underrated, the captain vane was mighty sexy

That series ending - Perfection. Great show, with a great ending. Loved it!

I have the entire series of Black Sails on dvd. Though fictional it did feature a lot of actual pirates. An absolute masterpiece.

To be fair, they made some drastic changes to his character from his real-life counterpart. Black sails Rackham is more of a "cowardly lion" type of character whose original role was to balance out Charles Vane's short sightedness and brutal temper, before becoming his own man. That being said, he does have same affinity of fine clothes as his real life version.

Were can watch it on?

@@kingofspades1785 it used to be on BBC, but I would just pirate it if I were you

@@kingofspades1785 nvm it's currently on starz

@@kingofspades1785 It was originally on Starz network. Not sure where it is playing now.

Didn't enjoy it at all Fast forward through most of it just to get to the end which was awfull

And a horrible murderer

Sure she was

Ché Ruiz that's simon

The way he speaks is nothing unusual from where I live. He has however a presentation style that is should be appreciated

I agree, he has that captivating delivery of the quintessential English gentleman. He has a great command of language.

@@NORTHATLANTICBOY Then you watch Business Blaze...

He has got a great voice!!

Never dawns on these people that if something is obvious (and it is obvious as the reference to Jack Sparrow is made in the video) that about a thousand others will try to come up with the same 'witticism'.

My first thought was Jack Sparrow "I have a jar of dirt!"

From what I've heard, he used more cunning, discipline, & tactics than other pirate captains. Supposedly his men hated him because he believed being drunk during pirate raids would have a bad effect on the fighting! How progressive! LMAO

@@bluesira - Dude was certainly driven.

"If you had fought like a man, you wouldn't have been trolled like a dog!"

David H I’m glad I’m not the only one. It took me a few times if him mispronouncing it to realise where he meant 😂😂

Along with 'congratulations on getting the opportunity to give me your money'

Just educate your children to see through it. Freedom of speech prevents anything else being done about it.. officially.. ofcourse you can go talk to the company that made the commercial over a seriously hot cup of tea.. if they're out of line.

Yes Charles Vane was a very sneaky nasty and inventive pirate I'd love that

May we consider Bartholomew Roberts a.k.a Black Bart for next?

If your interested in the topic id suggest reading Stede Bonnet by Christopher Byrd Downey its quite short but very informative. I have always been fascinated by Bonnet he made Calico look successful to say the least.

Well, that probably would grant him the title of most pathetic pirate, but I think to be the worst you should at least have been somewhat relevant.

I'd say the worst pirate was Stede Bonnet. Only pirate who bought his ship, was completely unsuccessful and did not protest when Blackbeard claimed his ship as his own.

@@ozarkscarguy540 , True... Kid ran from a lot of possibilities, but he did manage to take a valuable ship. He was hanged for it, but he took at least one ship of note!

me too

Honestly his life sounds pretty fun and interesting.... Imagine being alive at that time and sailing ships like that all over the place and attacking and plundering other ships and even stealing their ships if they were of quality. Sailing to some stunning tropical island after a good plunder and partying it up on the tropical paradise with all the alcohol you could want and then going out and doing it all over again. Just imagine living out on those tropical waters though that just sounds so nice even if they were lacking modern accommodations. He lived a more adventurous life than most will live that's for sure not to mention he went down in history just doing his thang lol. It is also amazing that he apparently came up with the iconic flag that we associate with pirates.

Amen

@Platigx ok so I wasnt the only one noticing that XD

Same. XD

Same here 😕

Bohemian is used correctly within the context as it means unconventional, he is refereing to an unconventional pub aka a brothel. thought u did something there aye

Arrrrrrrr

@@Kai-mh6sv It means socially unconventional in an artistic way, so no, he didn't use it correctly, because even in the provided context, the definition doesn't fit. Thought you did something there, eh?

@@johnnycaraltaBohemian also refers to a free lifestyle consistent with the one led by Rockhampton and other pirates, not just art.
