I am a Cape Cod native, so I know the whole story of Black Sam. I have seen his treasure, even touched it, firsthand. Thanks for making my day by doing this.
I am also from the Cape year round and have been to the Whydah Museum multiple times but i dont remember them saying how deeply involved Black Sam Bellamy was with all these Famous Pirates
I've been to the museum where they have the artifacts recovered from his wreck preserved! It's really quite fascinating, I got to see the bell up close and all the personal items on display. It was once in Wellfleet, but it is now in Hyannis, Massachusetts, for any who are curious.

I really like your channels and how they've morphed from 1 to many. You do a great job, I watch these with my 11 year old son and he's quickly becoming an astute historian. Thank you for the work you do
I wish this stuff existed when I was young. (Only 31 but this age of quality youtube is still young). Cheers to your son and I hope the love of history sticks around!
My favorite most underrated pirate ever! I’ve learned so much about him already and you still find little bits of info I didn’t know. I don’t know how you do it Simon.
I have a copy of "The Pirate's who's who." Highly recommend for anyone interested in the topic. How about Capt.Eric"Winkle"Brown RN. as a future episode. Flew more different military aircraft types than anyone has or ever will. He was present at the Nurenberg rallies and after the war interogated Nazi war criminals before their trials. And way more. Ta.
I'm always impressed that Simon is able to present so many channels with no legs. Its amazing that a man with no legs can front so many youtube and tictok channels. Well done Simon.
Loved hearing this take on a local classic. Every Cape codder knows of the wreck of the Whidah . We all took field trips to the museum to touch real life pirate treasure, and see a pirate entombed in rust
16:26 Richard Nolan?!?!? Characters named Bellamy and Noland BOTH are introduced at Jaya, at the start of the Skypeia Arc in “One Piece”! I know Oda likes to use the names of famous pirates 🏴☠️ for secondary characters, BUT to have TWO that are connected to each other in real life be introduced in the same arc?!?! Man, this is awesome 🤩
I am related to Maria Hallett. My father's family is from Barnstable and has lived there since 1627. At one time the town of Barnstable produced most of the ships in the British Royal Navy making it an incredibly important location during the years preceding the American Revolution. The strategic value cannot be overstated. Specifically this was in the village of Centerville. There is almost no sign of this activity these days as the ship building coastline is now a resort area. Barnstable is the town where the village of Hyannisport is located famous for being president Kennedy's summer home.
Cheers, Simon, to another great video! I've always been fascinated by pirates, and wonder if you'd cover more of them, like Black Bart Roberts, Henry Morgan, or Thomas Tew. I even saw an exhibit called "Real Pirates" at the Union Terminal years back, which had the remnants of the Whydah as its centerpiece. It was incredible.
Black Sam's life story would make for a neat movie. Also, the wreck of the Whydah Gally really did shed some light on the lives of pirates at the time.
Here's how you resume it: Business Blaze is Simon without a leash. And its glorious. I'm considering starting a petition to have Blaze-Simon released upon his other channels. Just as an experiment... :P
Fun fact they have a museum dedicated to this pirate and his ship in my hometown of Yarmouth, Massachusetts (cape cod) that has the bell, treasure, ect
I know some Bellamys, it comes the French, Belle amie, "Beautiful friend" Black Sam was neither beautiful nor a friend. Rowdy and vaguely American style checks out.
Do one on Dutch Pirates... they ruiled the high seas, many shipterms to this day descend from Dutch..like Boss and Kielhauling... Roche de Brasil is said to be a notorious cruel pirate, Piet Heijn took the Spanish silverfleet...
Maybe he just likes the outfit... I have 4 same t-shirts and 3 same pairs of pants. My friends started making fun of me never changing clothes until I showed them. Now they just think I'm weird for doing it. The simple explanation is - I found the most comfortable combination and I can't decide what to wear, so I don't. I don't like wasting my time on that or being uncomfortable. I usually set up everything in my life to my liking and I don't go out of routine much. I like it that way.
@@Z4J3B4NT Fair point, I honestly can't argue with that logic, I find a pair of pants I like and wear them down until they need to be replaced. Comfort over looks all day haha
What about Ching Shih? She was a Chinese pirate that commanded 300 ships and stood off the Chinese Empire, Portuguese, and the British East India company. I believe she would be the richest pirate of all time.
"Richest" not likely, but she did become very successful meaning she never got imprisoned or suffered punishment and she made it to retirement But she's tied with Henry Avery a likewise notorious pirate that was just as successful and retired from the pirate lifestyle
The broadcaster states that bones recovered in 2018 were DNA compared to that of a living relative. Just to clarify, there are no living male descendants of Samuel or siblings with whom to compare. Therefore, the person used as a DNA sample in England could not provide a match. I am aware of the Bellamy used for the sample and can categorically say their family lines do not trace back to Hittisleigh Devon. You would need a confirmed male descendant of Sam whose YDNA could be compared to the bones. This exercise was quite frankly a non-starter, commercially driven, flawed and misleading.
My cousins and I have traced Bellamy back to pre 1066 Normandy (Village of Belle Ami'), there is an error in the lineage between the late 1500s and the early 1700s, my branch can trace back to 1630s and Barbados , there's a missing person
Ooh can you do ching shih if you haven’t already? She had thousands of men at her disposal and did perhaps the most incredible thing any pirate captain ever did: she retired
Did you all know that the wreck of The Wydah, is one of the only pirate shipwrecks to be officially identified. Which means. Either a lot of other ships have never been found, or no one recorded the find. Which is extremely hard to believe for the latter.
There are days that I pretty much jump from one Simon video to the next. Already had TopTenz and mega projects today and this one popped up in my feed.
Please make a video about Aryabhata. A few of his achievements (in 476 AD): 1) Major contributions to trig/geometry 2) created the concept of zero 3) calculated pie 4) first to explain moon and planets shine due to reflected sunlight 5) explained celestial bodies moved due to earth rotation and sun was center of solar system
Simon, as always, an absolutely fascinating presentation. You could present a video on paint drying, and could make it sound exciting. You've quite a unique way of expressing ideas and points that keep the viewer very interested.
Please do a video on Major John Wesley Powell. He served in the Union Army in the Civil war and despite losing most of his right arm at the battle of Shiloh, he took on the mission to complete the first full descent of the Green and Colorado River from Wyoming and through the Grand Canyon in 1869. It was a miserable journey full of drama and intrigue. It's right up your alley!
04:48 I usually have this playing in the background while I’m doing something else, so it confused the hell out of me when the story of a sailor’s wife seemed to go off the rails. I thought Simon was pulling some sort of prank!
Back when the exhibit toured around the US, I got to portray Quartermaster Richard Noland when Real Pirates was at the Milwaukee Public Museum. Best job I have ever had in my life.
I love leaving snarky comments on Simon's Channels, but realistically he's why I started following YT creators...found TopTenz on acid, never looked back.
I got to see the traveling exhibit of the Whydah Galley, and it was one of the most exciting exhibits I've ever seen at a museum. This exhibit is why I clicked on this video so quickly.
Unrelated suggestion. It would be a worthwhile vlog to profile those individuals who, based on their historical significance, garnered a statue, and as a result, the so called activists are insisting and to a degree, achieving a pull down.
As fun as the idea is the maintenance is absolutely ridiculous as well as the fuel. Even with a nuclear engine the maintenance would be unfeasible for the period or even some modern countries.
@Draco lord What about going to the future where money has become an artefact of the past or at least is no more used as a tool of domination, where everyone has enough food to eat, where every child has access to education, where corruption and other bribes are things of the past, where people are learning from each other and going forward to accomplish common goals instead of waging wars (military or economic) on one another ?
Mary Hallett was born in Barnstable in 1698, the daughter of John Hallett and Elizabeth Bellamy. She was Samuel Bellamy's first cousin. Her son, Samuel died as a baby in 1716 in Eastham in the then village of Wellfleet. She died in 1746 at the age of 48. She never married and since she had the child out of wedlock she was exiled to the dunes where she offered her services as a healer to those who could not afford a doctor. She became well known among seamen who needed to be healed of a disease or patched up after an injury. She eventually amassed a decent amount of money and rumors began to spread that Bellamy had given her some of his vast fortune before he died. Her reputation as a witch was the result of local ministers calling her that because they called any woman who did not go to church or who had a child out of wedlock that and similar insults. There was also a folk tail that all the men who washed up on that shore were her victims resulting from her rage since Bellamy had broken up with her but that isn't what happened. Bellamy was actually coming to get her to sweep her off her feet and take her to a far off land and marry her. But his ship wrecked instead. Her grave and that of her son can be found in Eastham. I know, I've put flowers on it. I am descended from her sister.
I’m glad your channel is so successful. I don’t know what to do, as i can no longer watch it, owing to the commercials. I suppose there may be some way of making them go away, possibly by paying money to you, or paying money to TH-cam, but i’m losing patience taking time to research things like this to find out what i’m expected to do. it’s all very overwhelming, and i feel depressed about it. People will probably laugh at me and scorn me for this message, because that’s how people relate to one another now. Or even more likely, i’ll just be ignored. It’s quite depressing actually, so i guess i’ll just leave.

I don’t know how you do it Simon.
Good team (see credits at end of the video). Nice bunch of seawags 😝
I’m LOVING the pirate themed biographies, more please! I’d love a video on Bartholomew Roberts.
Didn't luffy engrave his fist into this guy's skull?
That's the first thing I thought of
Bellamy the Hyena lol
lmfao yes
was just about to mention Luffy/One piece haha.
Olivier Levasseur= Gold Rogers
Simon, love uour videos bro. Can't go a day without playing a video. Thank you for being awesome, you got one loyal South African subscriber 💪🏾
Nice to see my family heritage being recognized!
That witch story was the coolest thing I’ve heard. Love this channel!
Go to 'top 5' youtube channel. One of the recent videos he did centres around the ghost of mary waiting for her lover at sea

Hey, I love that "Your Boy With The Blaze" is sponsoring his own channels now. (Allegedly)
Thanks, Simon.
I am absolutely addicted toy your channels! Your writers are fantastic, the editing is smooth and easy to watch, and I always learn something new.
So basically Levasseur was that the real life version of Gol D. Roger from One Piece
Crazy how much oda makes these real stories fit into the characters of one piece
Ezactly who he was based
Un Filibustier!
@@ashtonpivkrring9045 No Roger was based on two pirates.
Eustass Kid is based on Kid
I wonder who Luffy is based off of
I think that Maria Hallett deserves her own episode.
All Simon’s channels are good
I have a copy of "The Pirate's who's who." Highly recommend for anyone interested in the topic.
How about Capt.Eric"Winkle"Brown RN. as a future episode. Flew more different military aircraft types than anyone has or ever will. He was present at the Nurenberg rallies and after the war interogated Nazi war criminals before their trials. And way more.
Ta.
This vid has a Business Blaze-esque undertone yet properness of Biographic! Love it!! Thx y’all.
6:04 Simon can't even make it through an episode of Biographics without stressing the word "allegedly"
Then again at 8:10 although without the emphasis
"Black Sam" - demonetized.
haha
I thought its be the references to seamen.
Well, looks like the only sensible thing to do now would be to burn a Wendy's.
@@paulheap1982 nah, TH-cam loves seamen.
prob because the pirate was supposed to be a black guy not some old balding white guy...

Glad to know Simon finally has a channel of his own. Way to go Simon! Surely will check it out.
He has 2. And has done for ages. Other is Mega Projects
Your work ethic is so inspirational to me. Thanks for all the informative work you do Simon. Never stop.

You are a descendant of Sam!!🙄
no way! im apparently related to bellamy aswell.

Olivier Levasseur, I guess that must be where the inspiration for Gol D. Roger and One Piece came from.
Also I would bet a lot of Luffy's personality comes from Bellamy, even though ironically in One Piece Luffy straight up vibe checks him.
Whenever your videos are sponsored by The Blaze, you should say something like, "Today's video is brought to you by me, your Boi from Da Blaze."

I bet he has a few flintlocks in his coat and maybe a pepperbox in one of his pockets
Any “real pirate” would want his story to live on with his body to the sea. He kept his word.

Black Sam reminds me a lot of Edward Kenway.
Up until Simon started talking about the witch, it sounded like the plot of Black Flag, which probably drew a lot of inspiration from Bellamy's life.
