    A note: Instead of every video having the same whitish grey background, I plan on switching it up for every video. Also I am going to try and makes having a full background for most frames instead of them being the exception.

    he lived to witness the civil war and the first year of ww1 impressive considering the life expectancy back then was like your 60s or so and it was even lower for slaves

    Some joe who happened to be enslaved just decided one day that he wanted to escape in a warship.
    Now that's escaping in style but also this type of stuff only happens in history.
    It's crazy tbh.

    You forgot a key factor in the stupid; the captain's clothing included a big, face-shadowing, floppy brimmed hat he was infamous for wearing. They guy made it easy for someone to disguise himself as himself.
