What Life on a Pirate Ship was like | The Pirates Port

Hope you all enjoy this weeks video! Do you think a life of piracy was worth the risk?

I guess it would depend on the circumstance whether it was worth it or not.

I’ve got an early 1800’s grog barrel that was used the Royal Navy. They had daily rations. I swear it still smells of rum

Most sailors couldn't swim? 😢

Also considering quality of life in general back then, if you weren’t of higher class you would almost live like this anyways, except you would be taxed blind and under constant societal pressure so I’d say it’s worth

Still....

Admin host too underestimate.. Pirates are the sailor also those have diciplin.. You cant survive over the sea with out diciplin.. 😊

I like the British narrorators a lot better

When I grow up , I want to be a pirate. Argggghhh !!

No not worth an eternity in hell.

Such an underrated, high effort channel.

Great research, so interesting!

If there was no wifi, forget about it!

Being a pirate not worth it cause they are kinda like the past,present or future gangsta where you either end up dead or in jail for most of them.

who came here after watching one piece?

Cant even imagine fighting sea monsters, sea emperors, opposing the marine admirals, training your inner haki, eating devil fruits. Wait

pirates were dirty trash criminals glamourized in shitty Hollywood films !

If I was born back then I would’ve been king of the pirates

why do people who clearly know very little about a topic go to the effort to make a video "teaching" everyone about pirates. the humans of the future are going to be so much dumber because of this phenomenon. the bilge is not full of spew and rotten water. these ships constantly take on water through the hull and they have pumps to remove the bilge water. they also have inlets for seawater to put out fires and clean. they were not the people you see in movies. they were intelligent and crafty folk with millennia of experience and expertise to draw from. there were not sharks surrounding every boat. just as today there are not sharks surrounding every boat. the sun beating down on the deck did not heat the ship up, the ships is made of a very good insulator called wood and its sitting in a very good cooling medium called water. we still have wooden vessels today. in every port. thousands are operating as charter vessels across the world, especially indonesia. we know what its like to live in one today because we still have them. its not a mystery you can "teach" us. the gun ports lined every available inch of the beam and made the decks soaked with fresh cool air off the ocean. sailors all had hammocks, not if. i mean did you just sit down and write a list of things you have heard watching movies and determined that your general fuzzy idea of those is some how realeated to actual reality? bro. wtf. this is garbagetainment. do better.

Yo ho ho a pirates life for me!

🤢🤮🤢🤒😷😵😫😣😢😖😱

Aye, a pirates life for me. Freedom as an outlaw yet truly free as a man. Yes being hunted by governments and another criminals a like may stear others away but Freedom is not free it will cost your life or soul.

What if the one piece was a worm Castle

No mention of scurvy??

"Ouch!"

"Sharks!?" 🦈

"Nasty!"

"Scurvy?"

"Do pirate ships have toilets?" 🚽

"Wow!"

"Hard Tack?"

one piece is real

Another trade off: living with yourself as a murderer. No, not worth it.

Just makes me wanna be more of pirate

I got that AC4: Black Flag reference from that pic 😂

Yooooooooo!
The life of a pirate for me!!!

A tough life makes a man or woman hard and hartless.

I wouldn't make it! To rough for me.

Honest question: Did they really pick out the larva? I would think the bugs provided some much needed protein, and I know that many civilizations ate/eat insects, so I'm surprised that malnurished sailors wouldn't eat them. Maybe the types of bugs (like weevils) aren't safe to eat?

say what you want you want about the putrid conditions upon the ships, but there is nothing more putrid then GOVERNMENTS (yes including the USA)

Hilarious how all the modern advancements were invented by white people. You 3rd worlders would have still lived like the pirates if it weren't for the white people.

There is NO vitamin C in anything anymore. Read the labels..I wonder how many people have Scurvey and aren't aware.

Shiver me Timbers

So basically pirates were bad ass!

Good video but nastyyyy life it was 🤢

Okay I’m subscribing now lol 😂

In Jerry Seinfeld's words, 'I don't wanna be a pirate' but I'll take the puffy shirt.

They were the scum of the earth. People loves them,due to ignorance.

This was a really good video. it covered alot of ground and didn't waste alot of time doing it

Remember
The toilets were at the “head” of the ship hence that name given to toilets today
