Blackbeard: The True Story

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
The complete story of the dreaded pirate Edward Thatch, AKA Blackbeard, told in 6 minutes with detailed maps of his voyages and notorious deeds sgrdpdrsn: In 2007, my wife and I was on cruise with RCCL and had a day at CocoCay Island. We went away from all the people and suddenly, behind goblins and thornbushes, I discovered 5-6 graves with marble stones on. We managed to get into the graveyard, and on one of the stones, it stood - almost invisible - Captain Blackbeard. When I got home to Norway, I contacted US authorities, but I didn't hear more.
In 2014, we had the same cruise. When we found this graveyard, it was totally destroyed with a stone of concrete telling that this is the grave of Blackbeard.
You can watch pictures of the original stone, by searching the Internet. I am so sorry that the old stone has been taken away, but I can understand that many would have tried to steal a part of the stone as a souvenir.

It is the christian schools that produce the best students and the finest citizens. In a time of growing delinquency, anarchy and crime in the government schools, and social disintegration, why do men not welcome the stability which christian schools give to society? The answer is that the state school delinquents and the criminals in society are preferred by these secularists, because these lawless elements do not constitute a challenge to their statist plan of salvation. The Christians clearly do.
Secular paganism today has a militant plan of salvation by statist action.
To advance that plan requires the silencing of Christians and obliterating christian institutions.

You would think with the title the true story of Blackbeard that you would at least be able to get the location where the Queen Anne's revenge was sunk right. She was not sunk in Topsail Island, she was sunk near the Beaufort inlet in Beaufort NC. Her artifacts are open for viewing in the Beaufort Maritime museum in downtown Beaufort. Get your facts right.

If your are navigating a frigate in the 18th century & you cast your eyes low on the horizon to get a glimpse of a Portuguese Man-o-War bearing down on your vessel, not certain how a Captain would ponder anything less than an act of hostility on your vessel. Its simple math, as the frigate is HIGHLY out gunned on all sides.

Good content, but i can't help but wonder. if this was made for TV content and it was less than 7 minutes long. 53 minutes of commercials, or was this hashed into hyper-redundant precap and recap with 30min of commercials?

Epic History could you do a video about the French pirate Francois lOllonais, probably the most savage of the pirates, who fought the Spanish, that would be awesome, loved this video on Blackbeard
reply

Thank you for the making the connection between Hornigold and Stede. Kinda wish the friendship of Vane was mentioned. If only to show the historical connection of these frightening figures
reply

Should be Beaufort Inlet, just off the coast of Beaufort, that Queen Annes Revenge went down. Your map location was accurate for Beaufort Inlet, not Topsail. Topsail is further south.

Quite surprised that the gentleman pirate is a real character, since I recently watched our flag means death. I also thought blackbeards flag was a joke in that show.

Don't believe half of this, too much to conquer for one person (pirate); more than likely more than one Blackbeard or just embellished stories throughout the centuries.

When I was a kid, I read Blackbeards Ghost by Ben Stahl. Juvenile fiction, but I always had an interest in this infamous pirate after that. Thank you for this video!

Havent finished the video yet, but Blackbeard actually spent time and also buried treasure just minutes from where I grew up, off the coast of Georgetown, SC

I live in NC and visit ocracoke as much as I can, it is amazing to think what happened in such a short amount of time. Glad to be so close to so much history
reply

In the new Marxist history books, Blackbeard will have been cancelled because his name is racist.
As Michelle Obama said: We have to change our history.

And now kids dress up as pirates for Halloween. I wonder if in another 200 years those kids will dress up as Bloods and Cripsmaybe even lawyers.
reply

The Queens Anne Revenge wrecked in Beaufort Inlet near Morehead City. East Carolina University has excavated the site. Fact check your information.

If a man plays a fool, then it's only fools he'll persuade but, appear to be the devil. and all men will submit.
