John Paul Jones Was A Serious BADASS

Very glad I came across this video, I've been looking for more history channels to watch. You've got a good knack for storytelling and narration.

The Han Solo of his time.

Yeah, those assault allegations was rape of a 10-year-old

Fun fact, he also raped a 10-year-old, so yeah there’s that

what movie is the clips in the video from

The father of the US Navy.

IYAOYAS.

The First True Great Admiral Of America

Great Coverage

The Great American Pirate


My Freedom Come Join Us

He was the maddiest lad

You should see his crypt, its the most tackiest and ugliest thing youll ever see. Swear to god.

When the British dude admits JPJ stacked bodies and was a bad ass you know it to be true. Put on pit vipers and Hits play on Lynyrd Skynyrd

This crazy bastard of a guy...




I'm proud of him 🥲

The USA couldn’t let the cry baby French keep this saint and hero…. Hed had to be returned home shame he didn’t stay in the USA

John Paul Jones is a pirate. No loyalty does he possess….

Good song.

I guess the educational system here in the US is so afraid to educate about this man because is a bad idea for the government to see real men come out of schools

"They were gonna kidnap an Earl, but he wasn't home so instead they had tea with his family and left"... This has gotta be one of the most badass moments in history lol

"His coffin was placed at the U.S. Naval Academy" is understating it. Just look at that photo of that ostentatious sarcophagus at the end of this video. The thing takes up so much space in the chapel that it's impossible to keep your mind off death during a wedding.

JOHN PUL JONES WAS A PIRATE NO LOYALTY DID HE POSSESS

He was a traitor like the rest of them.

Don't ask that dude for a raise...."you will makes pennies and like it." I wonder if JP from ZEPPLIN was named after him? Then again I doubt it since JPJ was a US soldier. Also the Father of the US Navy also was a Russian soldier......so how bout that!!!!

So many inaccuracies in this video.

The most lavish American Navy Captain and Commander is a Scotsman!
John Paul Jones is a Pirate, No loyalty does he possess

He's a crazy Scottish pirate and the father of the US Navy

I have not yet begun to fight!

The British called him a pirate. The U.S called him a hero.

Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!

John Paul Jones is a pirate,
No loyalty does he possess,
Keep it up we'll catch the pirate,
And sink him along with the rest,

Ho!

Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!

Born the son of a Scot, he was,
Born the son of a Scot,
But cut a man down in his prime, he did,
So away to Virginia he got,

Oh, John Paul Jones is a pirate,
No loyalty does he possess,
Keep it up we'll catch the pirate,
And sink him along with the rest,
Ho!

Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!

Raise the flag of the Yanks, he did
Raise the flag of the Yanks,
They hailed him as a hero, they did,
And hoisted him up through the ranks,

Oh, John Paul Jones is a pirate,
No loyalty does he possess,
Keep it up we'll catch the pirate,
And sink him along with the rest,
Ho!

Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!

Sailed at the head of the French, he did
Sailed at the head of the French
But they swindled him out of his cash, they did
So away from them all he did wrench

Oh, John Paul Jones is a pirate,
No loyalty does he possess,
Keep it up we'll catch the pirate,
And sink him along with the rest,
Ho!

Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!
Set feet, row! Set feet, row!

Now he's kicking up storms in the Black Sea, he is
Kicking up storms in the Black Sea
Fighting the Turks for the Russian Queen
'Cause she pays him much more than the Yankee

Oh, John Paul Jones is a pirate,
No loyalty does he possess,
Keep it up we'll catch the pirate,
And sink him along with the rest,
Ho!

John Paul Jones is a pirate
He may be just a chancellor at best
Keep it up we'll catch the pirate
And sink him along with the rest

Ho!

one of the greatest bassists of all time, true hero.

What a G !

Who owned the slave ship that JPJ was a mate on?

Why do you only have 7k subs before I looked I assumed atleast 200k but you'll be there if you keep posting great content like this

Well, he was actually Scottish. He really really really didn't like the British Crown. I don't blame him tbh.

Slave revolt are waaayyy more badass 😎😎😎

A badass, yes. But didn’t he rape a kid?

Subbed and liked

'Scottish Badass' I think you mean🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Snuck in some sailor Jerry

With all due respect for John Paul Jones but several others are also known as the Father of the US Navy including John Barry

Could you also do Guillermo Miller (Latin American Wars of independence) and Sidney Smith ,another pair of Badass.

John Paul Jones IS BLACK 🖤 Blessings and Hugs 💖💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕!

John Paul Jones was a fighting man.

More about the Heros of our Revolution!

You could do the Culper Spy ring.(Turn: Washington's Spys).
include the British Intelligence officer Maj Andre' who was hung by America but considered a very Honorable person(even Adams tried to get his sentence commuted).
Its incredible that from less than 1 million people in the 13 colonies we had so many extremely remarkable people.

I left a like and I subscribed to your channel. Good stuff.

How the fuck have I never heard of this man?

John Paul Jones is still a badass!
As a zeppelin enthusiast i must say his bass playing is perfect, he's wonderful with synthesizers the man is absolutely a brilliant genius with any instrument he picks up!

He fought in the rain, and he fought in the sun and he fought in the moonlight too
