I don't know if pirates used this method, but on Dutch VOC ships there was also a punishment in which the condemned would be pinned to the mast with a knife or dagger stabbed through his hands against the mast. I think he would hang with his stabbed hands on the knife/dagger for a whole day. This punishment was for crew members who did stealing, if I'm correct.

I think that walking the plank would be a pretty horrific form of torture. If they took their time with it you would have to slowly convince yourself to jump overboard, knowing that you would your drown. Then you would finally jump overboard and then the long terrible experience of drowning comes. You paddle and kick for a while, but eventually you get tired. More tired than you've ever been before. Your last ditch survival instincts kick in and you get a second wind and continue to tread water. Eventually you cant go any further and you drown, all while still holding out for hope. Horrific.

I’d love to know a bit more detail about social life aboard a pirate ship - cliques/friendships among the crew, how crews made up of voluntary pirates and forced recruits might interact with each other, whether pirate crews were harmonious or factional. Don’t know how much documentation there is on that kind of thing. But yeah, some of the details about how a group of 100-200 people act when they’re stuck on a boat together and drinking a lot but also have to work together to keep a ship sailing.

Wonderfully dark video for the October season. I was aware of what Every and his crew did to the women on the Gunsway and of the accusations thrown at Morgan, but this was an eye opening experience. I knew Low was pretty bad, damn he was incredibly vicious. Puts Vane to shame with ease. Makes me wish he didn't have a good end, but of course his end is ambitious.

Hey! I binge-watched all your videos in the last couple weeks. You present history in a honest and down to earth manner and I greatly appreciate it, plus your videos have a soothing effect thanks to the way you speak and the excellent music you always choose. My favourite video of yours is the one about William Dampier and you totally got me into reading his books! I have only the best wishes for you and your channel. This being said, I missed how you usually use music, in this one the type of music you chose and the low volume made it very unusual, as in a neutral, horizontal-moving way, I'm not criticising the video. Video was awesome but felt... kinda weird? Guess you spoilt me so far!

Putting slow match between the fingers seems to have been a favourite of the Dutch East India Company. It was used against the "Batavia" mutineers in 1629, and again on two sailors accused of sodomy by the crew of the "Zeewijk" in 1727.

Please do research on the women pilots the pirate scientist William Dampier mentioned. It's not clear if they were european or native women. It could be Spanish or island native women of the Spanish galleon they captured. Dampier had Spanish crew as friends. It would make sense they knew the galleon route to qualify as navigators. Or maybe they were Maguindanaon Asian women who were of a seafaring race knowing the sea route from the pacific to Indian ocean. Dampier asked the crew to vote on allowing a woman candidate the chance to navigate the ship so it means a real woman with that potential skill was present. He lost the vote though. The native women called pagalay or shore friends (chat mates) spoke Spanish and Dutch who were already there before the English came. They could also speak Arabic from the Arab missionaries who came to convert them to Islam. Arabic was the international language at the time for most of the world. European sailors needed to learn it. Such women would be valuable translators as well.
