🕑 Added 2025-07-01 17:30:04 +0000 UTCπ Welcome, Extra Historians to our Mutiny on the Bounty Lies video! Where we talk about the mistakes we made and the details we couldn't quite squeeze into our series. With questions like, did British Tattooing come from Tahiti? How much did the British class system really play into this historical tale? And what happened to Bligh after all this?

If Rob hates Ancient Aliens so much, where does he stand on the possibility of the existence of an immortal and Supreme Chicken? I hope Zoey the Cat enjoyed her time on HMS Bounty more than the humans did; I think I'd have preferred to go back to England than face an uncertain future on an unmarked island with a bunch of strangers. I hear my ancestors in that time made Cannon Balls for the British Army during the American Revolutionary War and then again in the Napoleonic Wars.

Now I'm imagining Tahitian women awkwardly accepting nails thinking it's weird way the English courted women.
