- Many books and movies portray a pirate’s life as glamorous, but nothing could be further from the truth. Living conditions on board the ship were terrible. A cramped and filthy environment, along with a lack of adequate nutrition and no access to clean water, led to the rampant spread of disease. And being out at sea for long periods of time in all weathers only added to the hardship. Let’s travel back in time and find out about pirates and their lousy hygiene habits. Welcome to Walk the Plank.

I’m loving this new channel, new ideas, Greek/Roman madness, Aztec/Mayan madness
I've learned a lot about other times in History just because of this channel, pirates believe it or not were a big part of many places all over the world. Thank you for this and Medieval Madness I love it!!!
I’m a pirate enthusiast and love this channel
Also military madness from even the 20th century would give you a lot of content
Dirty tow rag is a common British insult, but most people using it don't realise it refers to that bit of rope or rag hanging from a ship used like toilet paper.
toe rags are for wrapping the feet in place of socks.
Perfect dinner watching: yarr/10
If they saw they way we live now, even a poor person would have conveniences beyond a king back then.
I wonder if pirates ran around with clothespins on their noses. You know, because of "P.U.!" 😂
Pirate bath? I always thought it was called a ho bath🤣🤣🤣🤣
If they were in southern warm oceans you would think they would jump overboard a little bit and have a paddle about in the ocean to rinse off
Fishy, fishy, fish! Makin' it stinky!
Excellent
Looking forward to more from this channel
Your channels are superb. Medieval times and pirates awesome content
Wait this guy has other channels? I can't find them!
Hmm. Horrifying. Glad my ancestors were landlubbers
Ok. Ya got me. SUBSCRIBED.
Watch gold and gunpowder, he says pirates ate relatively well as they didn't go on long voyages and most stuck to the coast and Island hopping so there were plenty of chances to go ashore to get clean and reprovision.
I'm a pirate and we do live a glamorous life! We have our own wash bucket and all the cabin boys you would want.
I read a poem once that basically was about gooch cheese that was inches thick found in bathtubs frequented by pirates.
There was an outhouse at this place I had to go.. We were ALWAYS in a rush, so you'd have to rapidly go to the bathroom.. The smell.. dread. i feel dread, remembering.
yeah. that is nothing, compared to what pirates had to deal with!! WOW. But, yeah.. not all of them even chose it. wow. This world is so weird!! God is amazing. like, Try prayin folks. idk. "Parasitic fish followed the ships" It's like all of us with our celebrities :D trying to eat their..
that's a rude over-statement.. but, in many cases it applies.
i'm sure as some point they would swap out for a new captured ship.
They probably kept a couple sheep on board. I would not doubt sheep were the only livestock the men did not eat.
I like how he says pee splash back is worse if it comes back and hits you instead of hitting another pirate that'll probably get pissed😂
Folks have it so good nowadays they just don't even realize
Hygiene as we know it, is a brand new thing. In the 1950s lots of people bathed only once a week, with was also the time to change their underwear.
"The Surgeon!" Did the hairhairhair. C, C, C, uts.
I only bathe every few months, i dont see what the big deal is. Although, i have had a very bad case of scurvy for some time now, its giving my mouth hell
They could've just towed a hotel ship behind, and detached when attacking in the smaller pirate ship.
Good Lord !!!!!!! That scurvy was awful 🤮
Who wants to live in the good ol' days?
Cozy😂😂……
They would of had head lice, scabies, crabs,gross .
Why would anyone willingly be a sailor back then???????
Lol, I've often thought the same thing
so how did sailing ships keep everything so famously clean? this vid is hogwash. If I were a salty sea dog I would make you walk the plank.
