Legend and Fact

Legend: Blackbeard would light his hair on fire before battle:

Fact: Sort of. Blackbeard wore his black beard and hair very long, but he never actually lit them on fire. He would put little candles or pieces of fuse in his hair and light those. They would give off smoke, giving the pirate a fearsome, demonic appearance.
