Blackbeard Had an Incredibly Short Career - How History Works #shorts

Anoyyina

black beard was a Privateer in the War of Spanish Succession for a few years then he captured a ship and renamed it for himself so he had spent 10 total years at sea he also has no record of killing anyone but he was just a scary dude

Long story short, in the words of megamind, ⭐presentation⭐

Before he got into piracy he was employed by the British to hunt Spanish and French ships

I know that those pirates were real but it still all sounds like fiction

he has obvs haki and arm haki and finally conquerors haki

Adéwalé: "What of Thatch, sir? Did he fall? Captain?"

Edward: "He drinks damnation"

@rainingwithfacts stole your video

A lot of Blackbeard’s story was actually just misinformation spread by Blackbeard himself in order to create a more intense reputation. He was a fierce pirate, but a lot of what you hear about him isn’t true.

One piece

Zehahaha

There's a castle of his in the virgin islands , St Thomas. We knew of him way before yall did. We had to take American, World, and Caribbean history as kids but most of y'all don't know this, lol most don't even know that there's a usvi

yo real one piece

because he had an amazing devil fruit and good haki, duh.

Two facts: One, he never murdered a single person in his life. The second fact is that he contracted syphilis, which caused him to lose his sanity.

Realife one piece☠️☠️☠️
🎩
☠️

AC 4 did good at portraying him always talking about medicine in the game

Onky one piece fans knows😂

Blackbeard also served as a privateer for around 13 years and tbh the only difference between a privateer and a pirate is that one is legal while the other wasn’t. So he actually had a successful career of 15 years as a pirate captain.
A privateer was payed by the crown to commit acts of piracy against the Spanish since at the time there were trading disputes between the two nations.
Blackbeard also freed slaves from slaving ships to serve among his crew. Which was a better fate back then than being a slave. xx

Like King von in chicago😂

Blackbeard was nothing but a coward, the great pirate Captain Roger Swabknuckle was way better. 🍺☠️🍻

They found some of that "medicine" when they found the Queen Anne's Revenge; there were catheter-syringes for theating STD's lol

Teach was not known for cruelty. But for using a persona to intimidate those to his will. He seized every ship without killing anyone

Trump did it in 6 months.

When you watch one piece, you realize

This actually makes me think that the One piece. The one piece is realll!!!!! And I wanna go find it

Welsh gang

Zehahahahahahaha zehahahahaha

POTC Did a very good blackbeard.

Zehahahaha

I would've appreciated if you guys used actual pictures of the sort of ships Blackbeard witness in his time and accurate pirate/sailor attire instead of stock pictures or POTC footage.

The Gol D Roger of real life

Marketing major: allow me to introduce myself 🤓

Im from the same place as him im surprised we aren’t taught about him in school or the fact he’s really never talked about. I hope that can change in the future

Cool Name + Cool Persona + Big Media Attention due to Blockade.

Thats all it Takes. A Person rarely becomes the Most famous because they are the best or Most Dangerous.
They simply Catch the Most Attention.

He was a longtime privateer turned pirate for three years, not two.

Onepiece is reallllllll!!!!

“Blackbeard had an incredibly short career” so did everyone else who worked during this time.

his Canons was made in the County of Södermansland in Sweden

Now ive got to go replay assassins creed black flag.

Don’t forget, he fell in love with a would-be pirate. Allegedly.

Is the actor playing Blackbeard here the same actor from John Wick in charge of The Continental hotel? Look carefully at both. I'm pretty sure it's him.

Timeline estimate:
Early 1700s (~1700–1713): He probably served as a privateer during Queen Anne’s War. Many young sailors started as teenagers, so he may have gone to sea in his late teens or early 20s.
Post-war (1713–1716): With the war over and privateering jobs drying up, he likely remained at sea in some unofficial or shady capacity until he joined pirate Benjamin Hornigold around 1716.

Why did pirate wear so much eyeliner?

Wouldnt that be 3 years

which Blackbeard 😭 WHICH ONE THERES SO MANY

Romans 10:9
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”

2 years is a long time for a crazy criminal. I think he'd have been better in the British navy still since he was a dangerous tactician.

Zehahhahhaha

He was killed and beheaded off the coast of North Carolina
