Nice Mustache
As an american I can confirm that no one in america calls quarters "2 bits". We call them quarters
So this place was Detroit before Detroit...
System of the World by Neil Stephenson. Great series of books. Tho I said that, don't go off half-cocked!
42 here
More pirates videos please
When i heard Port Royal, I was expecting in the next shot to be slides with Fps number comparison, dlss on vs off :))
Never heard anyone say two bits.. (American here btw)
I liked for the quantitative easing comment
imagine caring abt colonization
Sounds like God turned a sinful place into a wholesome one. Imagine that
City on the ocean floor because man-made climate change was at it’s worst in those days. The ocean just doesn’t swallow up cities like it used to.
The quixotic laborer concomitantly pray because switch informally disagree towards a tasteless relative. pushy, cheap satin
CAT
I only know this exists because of Assassins Creed lol
I can confirm that we in fact do not call it two bits- not a one of us
Tortuga 😏
Pilfering predatory port-royal pirates, practising pirating with patches, peg-legs plus parrots. Privateers paid pieces of eight prepared to plunder, parley or prance on planks!
Holy jesus i used to watch you before the mustache and you had a suit......
hmmmm .... nice scuba diving tour around a dead ... gone .... city. Boom Sha-ka-la baba ... . Gypsy Trail
wtf? Colombus was portuguese!! what the hell are you talking about????
As a descendant of dutch pirates im offended
so port royal was a fun place like las vegas today :-D
I was watching these vids back in 2014 - 2015 and this is easily the best video I've seen you make.
I'm Jamaican I approve... The third F should be flight... Due to the airport and all
uncharted 4 vibes
Hey look it's the mustache guy from a million ways to die in the west.
I would watch a video on the history of world currency
They stuck a cross in it
It sounds like "hey forty two here" or is it just me?
17:40 Is it legal to dive there? Is it protected from relic hunters?
Could’ve sworn I was subbed to you...
12:21 😂😂😂
You chose to compare Port Royal to Pompeii.. Really????.. Isn't there a more famous and legendary city that that instead of a volcano involves water and sinking and the Wrath of the gods.. Even the Jews wrote an entire yet very fiction drama chapter to this in their book of lies well before Solon and Plato visited Egypt.. Oohh it's just on the tip of me tongue. Ooh what's that pond between Africa, Europe and the America's called again?? They even named a mountain range after that town.. Ooohh damn, what's that name again??!?!
Idfk
Where else would one expect to find a city of dead pirates?
Well they push transgenderism and victim culture on kids in school so old school debauchery should be no problem at all.
I'm an American, and I don't know who says "2 bits" 😄
"knees deep in sea men" Wouldn't you like that, swedish boy?!
Scheduled natural disasters 😂😂😂 Well, the city turned out to be a dream destination for vacation. Moral of the story: Regardless of the current situation or turmoil of your life, keep pressing on, never give up. You'll win and your story will fascinate and inspire others. 😎
Lol didn’t know Port Royal was real heard it from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies
I have never heard a person call a quarter "two bits" in my life. That is a lie
🎃HOW MUCH TREASURE IS STILL HIDDEN THERE?
Welp, i know where i'm gonna go scubadiving, way too many pieces of 8 are sitting there, it would be a dishonor not to take them, LIKE A TRUE PIRATE!
Hi I like your videos but your information is not 100% accurate
I have never heard a fellow American use the term, "Two bits" other than in Westerns lol.
Cause God killed them there
3:09 Was that a Sid Meier's joke?
Most cities produce a lot of gases but this one has nothing but arrrr gone! 🏴☠️
Now I have to search through the vids to see if there is a history of world currency. That really would be interesting (to me, anyway)
God: screw this place in particular 😄 😄
well done
Imagine being in your house and looking out your window to see your house sinking in the sand with no way out, then after the wave hit your pitch black house stuck beneath the sand would fill with water.
Shave and a haircut, 2 bits
I just love the way you tell and put together your stories !!!
Awesome
As an American, nobody says bits as in quarters.
Been there. Creepy place. Felt all types of strangeness. The beautiful local boat ride across the bay was fun, a great price and we got ice cream.
I just know that island stunk. 🤢
To search for the place I hear all sailors end
why are pirates called pirates??.............beacause they aaaaaaarrrrrrrr. ok im going now
okokok .. i admit that at first i was on the fence about some of the videos thoughty makes but they are getting better over time so subscribe i will!
Not once in my 28 years in america, have I ever once heard someone call a quarter "two bits"
Yo as an American of many decades, ain’t no one in any 50 states calls quarters “two bits” Sum bull shit.
3:25 "in those days it took up to 2 months to cross the atlantic..." Umm.... depending on what kind of boat your on, (sans 1-3 weeks) it can and does still take about 2 months to cross the Atlantic, given the right time of the year for wind conditions & weather.
We didnt find titanic bodies but we found. Pirates bodies....no
13:00 Some people still do that today lol Somehow it's even more sad now... :(
Playing Assassins Creed Black Flag, hearing Port Royal brought back memories🤣
Cah-RIB-ee-ahn. Thats how its pronounced.
Here's another fun fact did you know Christopher Columbus was looking for Queen Elizabeth's opium he was headed to China our country was literally founded on drugs
Wild guess, they drowned?
JAMAICA 🇯🇲
Got both the audio and book formats of Stick A Flag In It - if you love these videos, you'll love the book
I feel good when they said Jamaica because daaaah I am a jamaican
The first pieces of 8 where coined in 1521.
Sounds abit like hull . Hahahahhahahhahahhahahahhahaha Wasn't expecting that. Although only 1 in 4 inns in Hull may actually be open
42 thank you for all these years
Most popular hipster, this guy saying 42 but writes it as thoughty2. Oh and the mustache n suspenders. You know he’s wearing clean boots with jeans rolled up. Still great work at least for another 42 years?
Why does this guy sound like a pirate...
like a twelve-year who smokes three packs a day
I lived/worked there for two months, really insane history and cool to explore
Crazy
Crazy
Men of Sea
Can’t wait for last Vegas to be flooded
So portion royal back then was just heaven on earth long story short
As a Jamaican I knew before I clicked arggggg spongebob
Yay hull
There is a skipping song-chant that I remember from my childhood. 2 bits 4 bits 6 bits a dollar. There were various lines after that, mostly invented on the spot, but it's interesting to find out where the local idioms came from.

The girls mostly used the next line " I charge 16 bits to make you holler " it's hilarious that they were saying that you can sleep with me for 2 dollars without even understanding the words coming out of their mouths.
They just blatantely copied the french
Love your presentation. New subscriber.
It ain't cheating if it's in a different century 😂
It's funny to hear you keep saying Port Royal because I'm here and Canada Nova Scotia and there's a place called Port Royal too

As an American whose been to Hull, it seemed rather subdued.
Fantastic Video imagine the money buried there....
Oof for being a informative its pretty uninformative to even mention Columbus cause he didn't exist all historians agree to qn alias is not a real person
Well it definitely should not come as a Surprise that The Creator of ALL things would destroy Abomination, which this Area was not only full of, but they were boasting in their Obscenity. They set themselves up for Destruction even on the Foundation they set their Abomination on Matthew 7:26-27 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and DOETH THEM NOT, shall be likened unto a FOOLISH MAN, which built his house upon the "SAND": And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and GREAT was the Fall of it. John 11:25-26 Yahushua said unto her, I AM the RESURRECTION, and the LIFE: he that "believeth" in ME, though he were DEAD, yet shall he LIVE: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me SHALL NEVER DIE. Believest thou this?
Ape’s Concert
0 Americans say 2 bits.
Hey really love the channel but please never wear that shirt again. Also why are you so set on that mustache?
