My mother always said that her family was descended from Every who changed his name to John Avery, and lived his days in Louisiana, which is where she from.
Wealth, fame, power. Henry Avery, King Of The Pirates attained this and everything the world has to offer and his dying words drove countless souls to the seas. "You want my treasure? You can have it! I left everything I gathered in one place. Now you just have to find it." These words lured men to the Oceans in pursuit of dreams greater than they ever dared to imagine. These is the time known as THE GOLDEN AGE OF PIRACY!
The fact that Every was never found is testement to his intelligence. Being able to separate himself from the pirate world into anonymity was an amazing feat.
when we look at the context today, its very rare for a man to just disappear like that with no trace. Most would eventually pop back up as leaving a life of excitement and freedom behind is hard to accept. So either he was extremally intelligent or he soon died after, possibly got sick.
I feel like the piss poor book keeping and accountability back then made it so much easier to disappear, change your identity, and just go on with a new life.

TBH the timing of him joining Thomas Tew and knowledge that a treasure loaded ship was leaving port "soonish" is highly suspicious. Especially in the early 1700's communication was limited to mostly documentation. Much like the Gold of Tolosa stolen by a roman proconsul in antiquity, there clearly was some form of corruption at play. Somebody in the know let slip that information, and ensured no trading vessels would be passing by a moored pirate armada. Him disappearing and likely handing over part of his crew as a head for the common mob is also insanely suspicious. He was cleary protected from someone on high, who likely did it not just for gold but petty revenge. They were right to blame the East India Company.
@@pokeman5000 that's an enticing conspiracy theory: East india company engages in privateering for a share of more Indian wealth whilst Every gets to disappear. And if Every had failed, the east india company is rid of a pirate fleet. win-win.
I love the brutal reality of the history shown. Not romanticized or sugar coated. So many adults say things like "oh I would have loved to live in such & such a time". No.......Just no.
@@keyboardking8008 People think this was the gentleman century no people were barbarians there were a bunch of chainsaw massacre murderers at that time. To win an argument you would have a gun duel.
@@keyboardking8008 Even if that was the case and they had no choice but to become pirates, that doesn't automatically mean they had no choice but to commit mass rapes and torture of innocent people aboard the vessels they attacked. They could have plundered without defiling those poor women and without burning the entire town to ashes just because they refused to trade with you.
Some people may actually have enjoyed certain time periods depending on their personality and intentions. There’s nothing inherently flawed about that desire. Not to mention that living in ‘safety’ or ‘modernity’ has it’s flaws and limitations. Also, the modern day has as many dark corners if not more than we recognize. Just a thought…
I remember sailing down the Strait of Malacca and through the Phillipines aboard a merchant vessel last year. The freeboard on our ship was so small that we would occasionally have to lock down the house and radio the bridge when you had to go onto the main deck due to piracy concerns. We even had to do security drills in case that situation ever happened. We never saw any pirates and they're definitely not what they used to be, but it was a somber reminder that when shit hits the fan on a ship you're on your own til help arrives.

I love these stories of great historical figures who disappear from the records. It's akin to watching a movie with an open ended conclusion. You're kinda just left with your own theories of what their fate may have been. Henry Every is the perfect example of that. Amazing work as always! This my favorite history channel.
Hm, not sure I'd use the word 'Great' to characterise a Man who tortured, killed and sold slaves and oversaw the systemic gang rape of girls. Evil men are a dime a dozen, like rats in the gutters of history.

I'm surprised how this channel isn't more popular with a narrater and writing and picture and the story design is amazing. Criminaly underrated. I wonder why
I always thought Every was so impressive because he got out. Throughout history, no matter the time, knowing when and where to get out of the game a rich man and get away with it is rare. I think Every knew what would happen if he kept going. Or maybe he faked his name and got pardoned with many other pirates. Maybe he was unknowingly hanged with countless others. But the fact remains that the name of Henry Every was never killed.
Yea, Dawson and the crew who continued were the moronic ones. The smart ones quit while they were ahead and hopped off at Madagascar, Nassau, and the 13 colonies. Especially going to any of the southern colonies like Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina which weren’t as regulated as NY, PA, MA, and VA. And just launder the money taken into a homestead or small plantation.
Pirates of old struck fast and then melted away into legend. Today, pirates make the same movies over and over until we wish they would go away. Outstanding videos.
I never heard of Every until I played Uncharted 4 back in 2016, it'd be cool if that game got it right and he founded a pirate utopia called Libertalia but the chances of that are basically zero, he just took the money and ran and probably lived out the rest of his life hidden away somewhere
It is said Avery founded nassau as a pirate island and all the famous pirates of the Carribean like black beard edward teach, charles vane, jack rackem all came from nassau.
It would have been a short lived haven for oceanbound bandits and cutthroats, as it wouldn't have taken the East India Trading Company much time to bring it's strength to bear. The prospect of a pirate utopia in the middle of the world's wealthiest ocean , though...
I'm really excited for this one. Real Pirates are brutal, man. I remember checking out a book from my school library at 13 and reading all of these stories about horrific things they did.. after like 3, I decided not to read anymore. One in particular that detailed the brutality of keelhauling really left me disturbed. I still can't believe it was in a middle school library.. must've slipped past the filters, I suppose.
To be fair, keelhauling was a routine punishment on Navy ships too. Punishment for petty thievery would be hanging. The pirates may have been no more brutal than the society around them.
@@MrZombiPineapple yeah, the old days were dark as hell.. and of course, organized government can take credit for almost all of the biggest atrocities committed throughout history. The other 2 stories that I read were some things about what Black Beard did when pillaging, and another one was about this girl pirate who would use dead bodies of people who disobeyed as fish bait.. I really need to find that book, it had a lot more stories that I'd surely enjoy reading now that I'm older.
@Spencer Kraynik I agree, to an extent, at least. I just didn't expect a school to have something like that, which is why I assume it was ordered unintentionally or without knowing the true content.
@@MrZombiPineapple I agree wholeheartedly. And society, civilization and the human beings that compose them are still cruel and damning till this very day. More things change the more they stay the same. This is merely an aspect of human beings. We are composed of two sides (good and evil) of the same coin.
@@Frosty_tha_Snowman If you'd like to see what seems to me to be a pretty accurate depiction of keelhauling, watch Blackbeard's death from the series Black Sails, you can find the clip on UA-cam, it's absolutely brutal.
I love your presentation style. As a history lover, I really appreciate the care that goes into these videos and the evocative tone you set. You don't compromise in telling us how these events unfold, and it gives it an unparalleled sense of realism.
My UA-cam is on a history recommendation spree, and after going through the channels I knew less I can safely say this video had the best story telling/editing/content mix of all. After some 12 years of constant UA-cam, it’s quite rare for me to just subscribe to a channel out of the blue, but you guys have earned it. Not trying to make it sound like it means anything, but nice video! Hope you keep it up, I’ll surely keep watching
Wow, All I ever knew about Every was that he committed one of the biggest heists in history and then did the impossible. Got away with it, hearing of his other crimes you wish he was caught.
I get what you mean, especially the molestation part, but was it ever recorded that Henry Every himself participated in heinous acts outside of the plunder and slaughter one would expect from a pirate? Or wasn't that just his crew and he didn't bother to stop them? Not saying that being a bystander makes him much better of a man. But I'm curious about his involvement.
This is crazy how much of this I already knew from playing uncharted 4. I didn’t realize how much of it was real history apart from certain obvious aspects
I always thought the whole "Lost Pirate Treasure" trope was just something people came up with as a fiction plot device. I guess it did actually originate somewhere after all.
From what I've read, when pirates went up against a merchant vessel, the pirates almost always were successful in capturing the merchant vessel. Merchant crews were so horribly treated, why would they risk their lives for an oppressive employer? On the other hand, when pirates were confronted by navies, the pirates almost always lost. True, or have I been misinformed?
No it's true, because Navy ships were nearly always much better in general, better sailing profile, more guns, larger guns, Marines on board and when it came to the British Navy they had very well drilled gun crews that could put out a violently fast rate of fire with good accuracy. They were larger ships comissioned to be built with the goal of being a ship made for combat. The majority of Pirate ships were often smaller ships, many merchant ships converted to bare more guns and/or sail faster. Pirates were in the game for violently robbing lucrative targets, not for fighting Navy ships. Of course there are Pirates who did obtain larger ships and beat Navy ships or large ships like the one in this video, but the vast majority of Pirates were not these legends.
@@zakariamattu8613 Moreso they had much smaller crews than pirate or navy ships and those they had were not prepared for large boarding crews. So with minimal cannons to shoot the pirates down well before they got within range, most surrendered quickly and without a fight.
It all has to do with equipment and fighting skill. Merchant vessels lacked guns and fighting skill. Pirates had some guns and some fighting skill. Naval warships had a lot of guns and built for the purpose of fighting. They also had far better fighting skills than pirates -- they trained regularly in a disciplined way, and the sailors were trained to fight as a unit as well. That's why terrorists like al Qaeda or the Taliban can't beat the U.S. military. The individual terrorists might have great fighting skill in combat, but they don't train together to fight as a unit as much as the US military does. It's kind of like a tough barroom brawler getting in the ring with a world-class professional boxer. Which side are you gonna bet on? ...Exactly.
@@4thamendment237 This is mostly bullshit. Merchant vessels had skilled mercenaries to protect them but faced with the large crews on a pirate ship they mostly buckled since they ultimately weren't in it for a fight to the death. Pirate ships were largely piloted by ex-navy ship crews and were largely equally as trained as military ships. However most of them were rogue priveteers (who would have smaller faster ships), or not in ships equipped for major warfare. So generally pirate ships were overkill for merchants and horribly underequiped to engage larger warships which due to working within the law would likely be better maintained and moreso at full armenent. Pirates were not random jackasses who somehow pulled warships together. They largely didn't last long not because they were weaker but because they rapidly ran out of places to go. The Taliban were incapable of fighting US forces in pitched battles because they are vastly worse trained, worse equipped and incapable of doing anything to secure against the USs famously good air power due to lacking modern MANPADS or other anti-air equipment.
What can I say? this video is how I was introduced to your channel and what a video it was!!! The scenery, soundtrack, choice of words and manner of narration...this video is a masterpiece! Even if this was your only real video and the others was literally videos of a stilled image of a random wall, I would have still subscribed!!! Keep up the good work!!!
Wealth, fame, power. The world had it all won by one man: the Pirate King, Gold Roger. At his death, the words he spoke drove countless men out to sea. My treasure? It's yours if you want it. Find it! I left all the world has there! And so men set sights on the Grand Line, in pursuit of their dreams. The world has truly entered a Great pirate age
some of the best storytelling I've seen in a long time. The ambience you create with the paintings/images and sound effects is unparalleled. Keep up the good work. Subbed!
To get such an honest explanation of historical events with a wonderful story line and accompanied by incredible artwork is so amazing! I absolutely love the work you guys do!
One of the best history videos ive seen on this site, visuals are incredible, gets all the geographic and timeline information across - and most importantly has a captivating storyline
Exceptional work! Between the believable yet evocative art and the perfectly paced narration, you've got a gem that easily earned a sub, and perhaps a patron as well. Where I find this piece to really stand out from the crowd in particular, is the script. To my tastes, your writing walked a tightrope, not falling into dry detail nor overly fanciful narrative. Lean into that, it's a real talent. I love some Stayuki and Dan Carlin, but I rarely find time for the latter or learn much that I can meaningfully contextualize from the former. The maps helped me comprehend the context of the story despite its grueling pace, and while it certainly felt light on detail, the narrative flowed well enough to give me a great introduction to this person and his place in the golden age of piracy. All that makes for the best high-level biography I've seen. It seems very intentionally produced to be what it is, which is more than I can say for some of my favorite history UA-camrs who end up with videos of very random lengths, seemingly based on their level of prior knowledge (and/or passion) on the subject. Only critique is that nerds like me might appreciate on-screen citations of your sources. I love that you have them in the description, but it'd be great to know where to look for more information on specific events. Thanks!
I've been watching since your video on Dumas, and must say that this is your best yet. The music, narration, and illustrations are so incredibly evocative.
The ambition humans had back them never ceases to amaze and fascinate me. I could not imagine living a life like this. My life is so boring and driven by routine. Not complaining, I’m happy I get to live comfortably. I just wish I had the determination and ambition like they had

My theory is that Every sold out his crew in exchange for a new identity. His disappearance makes more sense, especially since his crew was hanged immediately after they reached Britain.
Hmmm at some point I was thinking the same however in those days he would've been double-crossed and hanged with his crew AND they would've made public his treachery. Pirates were given no quarter. Henry Every knew and he was too smart for that. He left the crew because he knew at some point they couldn't keep their drunken mouths shut.
@@ComboMuster also thinking at the same line of thought. It is possible that he sold his crew out as my initial thought or bribed with his treasury (which wouldn't be enough as they could just take it anyway) so it's possible for his expertise. Although it is also possible that he hid the treasures first but I doubt the government is lenient enough for Every to do that safely. So it is indeed the most likely that he escaped by himself if he's smart. If the government values his skills (used him for dirty work etc), or any valuables he hid and safely made the deal, then he is with new identity. Although it is indeed possible that the government dealt with him differently (or died along the way) even though public execution would be better for public image.
@@sixjhontongalamar979 Well it is said he held up his end in dividing the treasure fairly as agreed. My take is that he assessed what was going to happen if they all stay huddled up and get drunk as it actually happened in the end. Robbing East India co. and its allies meant no deal no pardon whatsoever. All his actions proved that he is extremely intelligent and daring so I guess he enjoyed his part of treasure til old age.
Right, probabilly he choose to divide the treasure btw his crew, then assumed another identity, he knew too well that if he had been caught the english would've hanged him, or worst, give to the Mughals as a "gift".
@@ComboMuster This is, in my mind, why they had different stories of where he said he was going. He likely knew too well that someone's lips would loosen as the screws tightened. I don't expect he ever told anyone where he truly intended to go, or what he intended to do.

This was a impressive & entertaining video, I was surprised when I scrolled and saw that you guys only have 451k subs. Don't get me wrong that's quite a bit but I feel this type of quality content should be more mainstream. I had heard of Henry Avery before, but I had not known the atrocities he committed in search of fortune. The Age of Piracy was certainly not for the faint of heart...
I first knew about Henry Every and his legendary exploits from Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (he was called Henry Avery there, though). Needless to say, I'm quite fascinated by the man right now. More often than not when I think about pirates, the ones that were active in the Caribbean Sea such as Blackbeard, Henry Morgan, Bartholomew Roberts, 'Calico' Jack Rackham, Anne Bonny and Mary Read, etc. but Every's most famed exploit took place far away from the Caribbean. Would love to learn more about Ching Shih, the female Chinese pirate lord, too. From what I look up, she controlled an entire fleet of pirates and fought major powers such as the East India Company and Qing China itself. She's awesome.
I recognized Henry "Avery" from Uncharted as well. It made me want to replay it, so, I could walk around in the jungle mansion. The story and graphics were awesome. 👍
That's the thing about pirates, as ex navy they were surprisingly well organized and fruity as apposed to a criminal gang off the streets from today. It's kind of like the militias you see in socialist nations or militant dictatorships when it all falls apart, the leaders are the military that has decided to revolt so there's an heir of the pirates in them.
This is a fantastic video, would be great to hear you talk about other famous pirates of the age, eg more about Thomas Tew, Anne Bonnie, Edward Teach, Charles Vane, Mary Read, Ben Hornigold etc

Henry Avery outplayed the two most powerful empires at the time, the British and Mughal. That was quite impressive.

@@pokeman5000 that's an enticing conspiracy theory: East india company engages in privateering for a share of more Indian wealth whilst Every gets to disappear. And if Every had failed, the east india company is rid of a pirate fleet. win-win.
I love the brutal reality of the history shown. Not romanticized or sugar coated.
So many adults say things like "oh I would have loved to live in such & such a time". No.......Just no.
there was nothing left , it was either piracy or die homeless of starvation
@@keyboardking8008 People think this was the gentleman century no people were barbarians there were a bunch of chainsaw massacre murderers at that time. To win an argument you would have a gun duel.
@@keyboardking8008 Even if that was the case and they had no choice but to become pirates, that doesn't automatically mean they had no choice but to commit mass rapes and torture of innocent people aboard the vessels they attacked. They could have plundered without defiling those poor women and without burning the entire town to ashes just because they refused to trade with you.
Some people may actually have enjoyed certain time periods depending on their personality and intentions. There’s nothing inherently flawed about that desire. Not to mention that living in ‘safety’ or ‘modernity’ has it’s flaws and limitations. Also, the modern day has as many dark corners if not more than we recognize. Just a thought…
@@alexf9381 you're lucky you ware born in this age of adult day care
I remember sailing down the Strait of Malacca and through the Phillipines aboard a merchant vessel last year. The freeboard on our ship was so small that we would occasionally have to lock down the house and radio the bridge when you had to go onto the main deck due to piracy concerns. We even had to do security drills in case that situation ever happened. We never saw any pirates and they're definitely not what they used to be, but it was a somber reminder that when shit hits the fan on a ship you're on your own til help arrives.
My ship fired on some jackasses there one night.
The world still has some wild places, needless to say.

you are amazing at telling a story. you got me so invested in this that i didn't even realize it was almost the end of the video, the music and your style were awesome together
I love these stories of great historical figures who disappear from the records. It's akin to watching a movie with an open ended conclusion. You're kinda just left with your own theories of what their fate may have been. Henry Every is the perfect example of that. Amazing work as always! This my favorite history channel.
Hm, not sure I'd use the word 'Great' to characterise a Man who tortured, killed and sold slaves and oversaw the systemic gang rape of girls. Evil men are a dime a dozen, like rats in the gutters of history.

I was blown away on how good this story was, I love the art work.
I'm surprised how this channel isn't more popular with a narrater and writing and picture and the story design is amazing. Criminaly underrated. I wonder why
I always thought Every was so impressive because he got out.
Throughout history, no matter the time, knowing when and where to get out of the game a rich man and get away with it is rare.
I think Every knew what would happen if he kept going.
Or maybe he faked his name and got pardoned with many other pirates. Maybe he was unknowingly hanged with countless others.
But the fact remains that the name of Henry Every was never killed.
Yea, Dawson and the crew who continued were the moronic ones. The smart ones quit while they were ahead and hopped off at Madagascar, Nassau, and the 13 colonies.
Especially going to any of the southern colonies like Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina which weren’t as regulated as NY, PA, MA, and VA. And just launder the money taken into a homestead or small plantation.
Pirates of old struck fast and then melted away into legend. Today, pirates make the same movies over and over until we wish they would go away. Outstanding videos.
They really need to make a realistic, dark pirate film.
Modern day pirates make their moves. Then they get a drone strike or hunted down by a special forces unit of one nation or another.
i caught the joke...
I never heard of Every until I played Uncharted 4 back in 2016, it'd be cool if that game got it right and he founded a pirate utopia called Libertalia but the chances of that are basically zero, he just took the money and ran and probably lived out the rest of his life hidden away somewhere
I doubt there was a pirate society or town called Libertalia, but I'm sure there was probably some pirate hideouts
Nassau was known as the prototypical “pirate utopia” that Libertalia was based around.
Same here bud,
Same here...!
Absolutely loved all of the uncharted games 🎮

There's only one Nathan drake.
Uncharted 4 is amazing
Imagine if Avery and Tew founded a pirate utopia on a island in the middle of the Indian Ocean... I mean, with all that treasure and wealth...
It is said Avery founded nassau as a pirate island and all the famous pirates of the Carribean like black beard edward teach, charles vane, jack rackem all came from nassau.
Yeah they landed on sentinel island 😂😂😂
It would have been a short lived haven for oceanbound bandits and cutthroats, as it wouldn't have taken the East India Trading Company much time to bring it's strength to bear. The prospect of a pirate utopia in the middle of the world's wealthiest ocean , though...
That would be a cool video game
@@waspanimations7037 😂
I'm really excited for this one. Real Pirates are brutal, man. I remember checking out a book from my school library at 13 and reading all of these stories about horrific things they did.. after like 3, I decided not to read anymore. One in particular that detailed the brutality of keelhauling really left me disturbed. I still can't believe it was in a middle school library.. must've slipped past the filters, I suppose.
To be fair, keelhauling was a routine punishment on Navy ships too. Punishment for petty thievery would be hanging. The pirates may have been no more brutal than the society around them.
@@MrZombiPineapple yeah, the old days were dark as hell.. and of course, organized government can take credit for almost all of the biggest atrocities committed throughout history. The other 2 stories that I read were some things about what Black Beard did when pillaging, and another one was about this girl pirate who would use dead bodies of people who disobeyed as fish bait.. I really need to find that book, it had a lot more stories that I'd surely enjoy reading now that I'm older.
@Spencer Kraynik I agree, to an extent, at least. I just didn't expect a school to have something like that, which is why I assume it was ordered unintentionally or without knowing the true content.
@@MrZombiPineapple I agree wholeheartedly. And society, civilization and the human beings that compose them are still cruel and damning till this very day. More things change the more they stay the same. This is merely an aspect of human beings. We are composed of two sides (good and evil) of the same coin.
@@Frosty_tha_Snowman If you'd like to see what seems to me to be a pretty accurate depiction of keelhauling, watch Blackbeard's death from the series Black Sails, you can find the clip on UA-cam, it's absolutely brutal.
I love your presentation style. As a history lover, I really appreciate the care that goes into these videos and the evocative tone you set. You don't compromise in telling us how these events unfold, and it gives it an unparalleled sense of realism.
My UA-cam is on a history recommendation spree, and after going through the channels I knew less I can safely say this video had the best story telling/editing/content mix of all. After some 12 years of constant UA-cam, it’s quite rare for me to just subscribe to a channel out of the blue, but you guys have earned it. Not trying to make it sound like it means anything, but nice video! Hope you keep it up, I’ll surely keep watching
What an incredibly tragic and beautiful tale. Thank you brothers for your fantastic effort in bringing us these.
Wow, All I ever knew about Every was that he committed one of the biggest heists in history and then did the impossible. Got away with it, hearing of his other crimes you wish he was caught.
I get what you mean, especially the molestation part, but was it ever recorded that Henry Every himself participated in heinous acts outside of the plunder and slaughter one would expect from a pirate? Or wasn't that just his crew and he didn't bother to stop them?
Not saying that being a bystander makes him much better of a man. But I'm curious about his involvement.
@@nielslehnen6076 As the leader, he probably didn't lower himself to engage in such acts with his men. He certainly let them do it though.
@@nielslehnen6076 Considering he said that Henry "watched" it's more likely that he didn't do it and just let his men do that
Yeah his crew basically gang raped all of Mughal Indian women. Kinda fukd up
This is crazy how much of this I already knew from playing uncharted 4. I didn’t realize how much of it was real history apart from certain obvious aspects
I always thought the whole "Lost Pirate Treasure" trope was just something people came up with as a fiction plot device. I guess it did actually originate somewhere after all.
I wonder how he managed to launder all that gold though
From what I've read, when pirates went up against a merchant vessel, the pirates almost always were successful in capturing the merchant vessel. Merchant crews were so horribly treated, why would they risk their lives for an oppressive employer? On the other hand, when pirates were confronted by navies, the pirates almost always lost. True, or have I been misinformed?
Not only that lot of times merchant ships weren’t capable of taking pirates as it merchant ship which was suited for different role
No it's true, because Navy ships were nearly always much better in general, better sailing profile, more guns, larger guns, Marines on board and when it came to the British Navy they had very well drilled gun crews that could put out a violently fast rate of fire with good accuracy. They were larger ships comissioned to be built with the goal of being a ship made for combat. The majority of Pirate ships were often smaller ships, many merchant ships converted to bare more guns and/or sail faster. Pirates were in the game for violently robbing lucrative targets, not for fighting Navy ships. Of course there are Pirates who did obtain larger ships and beat Navy ships or large ships like the one in this video, but the vast majority of Pirates were not these legends.
@@zakariamattu8613 Moreso they had much smaller crews than pirate or navy ships and those they had were not prepared for large boarding crews. So with minimal cannons to shoot the pirates down well before they got within range, most surrendered quickly and without a fight.
It all has to do with equipment and fighting skill. Merchant vessels lacked guns and fighting skill. Pirates had some guns and some fighting skill. Naval warships had a lot of guns and built for the purpose of fighting. They also had far better fighting skills than pirates -- they trained regularly in a disciplined way, and the sailors were trained to fight as a unit as well. That's why terrorists like al Qaeda or the Taliban can't beat the U.S. military. The individual terrorists might have great fighting skill in combat, but they don't train together to fight as a unit as much as the US military does. It's kind of like a tough barroom brawler getting in the ring with a world-class professional boxer. Which side are you gonna bet on? ...Exactly.
@@4thamendment237 This is mostly bullshit.
Merchant vessels had skilled mercenaries to protect them but faced with the large crews on a pirate ship they mostly buckled since they ultimately weren't in it for a fight to the death.
Pirate ships were largely piloted by ex-navy ship crews and were largely equally as trained as military ships. However most of them were rogue priveteers (who would have smaller faster ships), or not in ships equipped for major warfare.
So generally pirate ships were overkill for merchants and horribly underequiped to engage larger warships which due to working within the law would likely be better maintained and moreso at full armenent.
Pirates were not random jackasses who somehow pulled warships together. They largely didn't last long not because they were weaker but because they rapidly ran out of places to go.
The Taliban were incapable of fighting US forces in pitched battles because they are vastly worse trained, worse equipped and incapable of doing anything to secure against the USs famously good air power due to lacking modern MANPADS or other anti-air equipment.

One of the best history videos ive seen on this site, visuals are incredible, gets all the geographic and timeline information across - and most importantly has a captivating storyline
Exceptional work! Between the believable yet evocative art and the perfectly paced narration, you've got a gem that easily earned a sub, and perhaps a patron as well.
Where I find this piece to really stand out from the crowd in particular, is the script. To my tastes, your writing walked a tightrope, not falling into dry detail nor overly fanciful narrative. Lean into that, it's a real talent. I love some Stayuki and Dan Carlin, but I rarely find time for the latter or learn much that I can meaningfully contextualize from the former.
The maps helped me comprehend the context of the story despite its grueling pace, and while it certainly felt light on detail, the narrative flowed well enough to give me a great introduction to this person and his place in the golden age of piracy. All that makes for the best high-level biography I've seen. It seems very intentionally produced to be what it is, which is more than I can say for some of my favorite history UA-camrs who end up with videos of very random lengths, seemingly based on their level of prior knowledge (and/or passion) on the subject.
Only critique is that nerds like me might appreciate on-screen citations of your sources. I love that you have them in the description, but it'd be great to know where to look for more information on specific events.
Thanks!
I never heard of Henry Every before, but now I'm curious about him. Excelent documentary, mates! Greetings from Mexico!

i was so shocked i wasn't already subbed to this channel. what a high quality piece of content, excited to watch more!
My theory is that Every sold out his crew in exchange for a new identity. His disappearance makes more sense, especially since his crew was hanged immediately after they reached Britain.
Hmmm at some point I was thinking the same however in those days he would've been double-crossed and hanged with his crew AND they would've made public his treachery. Pirates were given no quarter. Henry Every knew and he was too smart for that. He left the crew because he knew at some point they couldn't keep their drunken mouths shut.
@@ComboMuster also thinking at the same line of thought. It is possible that he sold his crew out as my initial thought or bribed with his treasury (which wouldn't be enough as they could just take it anyway) so it's possible for his expertise. Although it is also possible that he hid the treasures first but I doubt the government is lenient enough for Every to do that safely.
So it is indeed the most likely that he escaped by himself if he's smart. If the government values his skills (used him for dirty work etc), or any valuables he hid and safely made the deal, then he is with new identity.
Although it is indeed possible that the government dealt with him differently (or died along the way) even though public execution would be better for public image.
@@sixjhontongalamar979 Well it is said he held up his end in dividing the treasure fairly as agreed. My take is that he assessed what was going to happen if they all stay huddled up and get drunk as it actually happened in the end. Robbing East India co. and its allies meant no deal no pardon whatsoever. All his actions proved that he is extremely intelligent and daring so I guess he enjoyed his part of treasure til old age.
Right, probabilly he choose to divide the treasure btw his crew, then assumed another identity, he knew too well that if he had been caught the english would've hanged him, or worst, give to the Mughals as a "gift".
@@ComboMuster This is, in my mind, why they had different stories of where he said he was going. He likely knew too well that someone's lips would loosen as the screws tightened. I don't expect he ever told anyone where he truly intended to go, or what he intended to do.
wealth, fame, power. Henry Every the king of the pirates, had this and much more the world had to offer.

Don't get me wrong that's quite a bit but I feel this type of quality content should be more mainstream. I had heard of Henry Avery before, but I had not known the atrocities he committed in search of fortune. The Age of Piracy was certainly not for the faint of heart...
Just living in those days was not for the feint of heart. Life was significantly more difficult for everybody
I first knew about Henry Every and his legendary exploits from Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (he was called Henry Avery there, though). Needless to say, I'm quite fascinated by the man right now. More often than not when I think about pirates, the ones that were active in the Caribbean Sea such as Blackbeard, Henry Morgan, Bartholomew Roberts, 'Calico' Jack Rackham, Anne Bonny and Mary Read, etc. but Every's most famed exploit took place far away from the Caribbean.
Would love to learn more about Ching Shih, the female Chinese pirate lord, too. From what I look up, she controlled an entire fleet of pirates and fought major powers such as the East India Company and Qing China itself. She's awesome.
Extra history has some episodes on her
The pirate round phase of the golden age of piracy is underrated.

That's the thing about pirates, as ex navy they were surprisingly well organized and fruity as apposed to a criminal gang off the streets from today.
