Assassin's Creed: The Real History - "Blackbeard"

The "lit strings" in his hair were lit fuse cords. It was more a psychological prop than a practical one. And his flag has a demonic skeleton holding an HOUR GLASS not a wine glass. The hour glass and the spear pointed towards the heart is meant to mean "your time is close" to his foes.

the video was awesome just awesome I wish my school would use some interesting history like the golden age of piracy

"please try the AC series"??    if anyone is watching this vid it is because they know the AC series.

Love this game and BlackBeard is the best character and love the way his voice and acting came through the game. I still do enjoy this game and think it's the best one in the series, then Brotherhood coming in 2nd.

this is gold to me right now, with a school-assignement, but i was wondering if you have any sources on this?

ACIV is the best assassins creed

good video

WHICH SHIP DO YOU THINK IS THE BEST THE JACKDAW OR MORRIGON ,BECAUSE I CHOOSE THE JACKDAW CAUSE IT'S CAPTAIN MADE IT UNSTOPPABLE. MAKING EDWARD KENWAY A LEGEND, AND A MORE ABLE SAILOR.

He, arguably, IS the most notorious pirate.

Blackbeard's death is well-documented. It took at least 20 sword wounds and 5 pistol shots to finish him off. Also, did he really say, "In a world without gold, we might have been heroes!"?

Lol oh crack coke

Queen Anne's revenge wasn't given to him by Bonnet 😂😂 it was a slave ship that he decked out with more cannons and stuff that he took ffs

i heard he was hit with a sword 20 times and shot 5 times before he died

I heard he once beat a cleft chinned shitload from New Jersey to death using only his genitalia

Well now I've developed an overwhelming interest in pirates ffs, I love this series

Love him or hate him, Blackbeard was a man to respect.

cool

He had two slings with SIX pistols, a cutlass and a blunderbuss :)

Oh, he actually ran it aground by purpose ;)

I'm from NC and the name get messed up alot..beaufort is bofort..and it's oak.ra.coke..knowledge is power

I want James cook of assassin's creed rogue

I was in the area where Blackbeard was killed Ocracoke island the entire place was a mosquito hotspot

ya know, the auto-generated subtitle for Ed Thatch becomes Ed Fetch. And in Forsaken, Edward named his dog Thatch, which is very amusing.

His speech about caution is awesome and inspiring

I wish after Robert Maynard killed Blackbeard another pirate went over to Robert Maynard and cut off his head and put it on his ship as a symbol to keep the British away

I don't care what any pansy-ass Limey historians say, Ed Thatch was a great pirate and an even greater man. May he rest in peace in the depths of the sea

great video

In a world without gold we might have been heroes... :(

wish assassins creed included captain flint such an iconic character

Fun fact: it took A LOT more wounds to hurt Blackbeard enough to take his head than what the game showed.

There are also theories saying Ed Thatch was born into a noble family as he held the Letter of the Marque.

I still prefer teach just sounds better in my opinion and you should listen to the song the devils son ☠️ it's an amazing dedication to this great man

And he got stabbed and shot about 10,000,000 times

He braided hemp into his hair to create the illusion his head was smoking

On the flag, the devil is holding a sand timer not a glass. to send the message "your time is running out"

Probably the nicest criminal that ever lived

What is so hard about saying 'Ocracoke?'

ZEHAHAHAHAHAHA!!


Love both AC Black Flag and One Piece!

In a world with out gold why might of been heros
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

F in the chat for Edward Thatch

You actually forgot he took 20 sword cuts and 6 bullet shots before he dead, it's like he was the devil himself if he took 20 cuts before he died.

“British navy” 😂

So awhile ago I came across a fan theory the kenway was Edward England but England died in Madagascar,1721 which wouldn't fit into black flags story.

His Name Was Definitely Edward Blackbeard Thatch! I Searched For Some Information On Google And It Confirmed It! I Was Really Bothered When They Botched And Misspelled His Name In The 4th POTC Film.

I think the main reason BlackBeard is more famous than say Black Bart (Who capturn way more ships than Black Beard) was because Black Beard was more drama with putting his beard on fire during battle.

Black Flag is by far my favorite AC game.

this series is bad ass

Kind of sad that the game didn’t include his devil fruit abilities.
