Blackbeard The Most Feared Pirate! #shorts

When you think about scary pirates, the first name that probably pops into your head is Blackbeard. And while he was probably the most feared pirate of the 18th century and the most famous pirate in history, he may not have actually been that brutal. 300 years after Edward Teach had his head chopped off in battle, historians and archaeologists have come together to shed some light on the man behind the mystery.
Many merchants in the 1700s spoke of Blackbeard as if he were a vengeful demon. He had fierce and wild eyes, kept three pistols in a holster across his chest, and kept lit matches in his beard to make it look like a hot, glowing mass of hair.
