Blackbeard Fun Facts
Blackbeard's real name was Edward Teach, and he often wove slow-burning fuses into his beard during battles to create a fearsome and smoky appearance.
Blackbeard blockaded the port of Charles Town, South Carolina, for at least a week in 1718, demanding medicine and supplies, leading to one of the colony's first pirate-related ransom negotiations.
