This is a complete Lefties account of one of the most important people of his time. Such a disservice. There are far better less biased accounts of Cooks life and accomplishments. Move along>> <<@davidhopkins says : You seem to pin Cook’s change in demeanour to his success going to his head. I believe it is more complicated. Possibly health related. There’s evidence he suffered stomach issues and migraines in his third voyage.>> <<@chefnoah1048 says : I was going to write a biography of James Cook from the perspective of his facial hair. I'm planning on calling it "James' Beard. A Cook Book.">> <<@MissyMorris101 says : When I learned history I was told that Captain Cook discovered New Zealand! So HOW you discover a country that's already INHABITED? LIE about the DISCOVERY?????>> <<@tedmacdonnell says : Some of this feels gratuitous in reference to Cooks “ego” the book by Hampton Sides gives a more rounded picture of the man and his motives.>> <<@WetTropicsOfOz says : This ghost lied everywhere he went. Should have been speared in Cooktown Australia on first sight....>> <<@TJM3RDAVE says : I have a lot of respect for Captain Cook keeping his vows and remaining faithful to his wife.>> <<@HenryHewson says : I almost spat out my coffee when you called Whitby a ‘prominent port city’! 😂😂😂>> <<@hansvanrooij4077 says : The English call him like that but countries like Holland Portugal and Spain are laughin at all the qualifications the British have given him For me as a Dutchman his voyages discovereed almost nothing and most of the mapping he did was already done by our captains 100 years before.There existed already detailed maps of what our oh so great expllorer mapped for the first.The British simply didnt want to know this and these facts are simply not true Even high educated persons are acting this way Its whatts happening around many other British heros.They were they are and will for ever be the greatest persons that ever lived on earth.Dont try to fight this because it simply is that way and will stay that way>> <<@jefftennant5805 says : It seems history is what you decide you it to be as there are many different accounts of Cook’s treatment of natives - the first 2 expeditions being examples of benign interactions and accommodation together with the third being a misunderstanding which lead to the massacre, to the narration that Cook was always a brutal invader. Find what works for you.>> <<@angryyoungman66 says : Are you serious trying to defend the act of thievery made by the hawayans by saying they have a different definition of property 😂😂 and you say Cook’s is known for his barbarity when he’s the one who got stabbed multiple times by naked sea people who are cannibals ,I’m amazed at how blind you are and I’m not even a European or christian person so no one claims I have any bias , what cooks did is not really that bad as this guys makes it seems>> <<@popgunandy says : I enjoy your histories but do you really need to talk at 10,000 miles per hour? It distracts from them being informative.>> <<@forgetmenots7909 says : The real reason why Cook got killed by the Hawaiians was becos Cook tried to take the Hawaiian King hostage. Hence why he was toesed up 😮>> <<@ganeshlange4354 says : They were holding a chief hostage because the local Hawaii villagers took one of their long boats in the battle cook was killed. So who is to blame for this cook and his crew or the local Hawaiian people? Id say it was cooks fault for his down fall>> <<@SIRDKA says : A simple Boro lad that achieved greatness.>> <<@Mech_Tea says : Impressive man, especially considering his humble background.>> <<@glennsmith1139 says : The Chinese were he used some of their maps>> <<@mallakatani3918 says : TUPAIA.>> <<@nikkivenable73 says : Back when men were courageous. I miss those days.

I personally say thank God for the British empire ridding the world, in the best part, of barbarism and intoducing law, morality and democracy.>> <<@toast47624 says : Excuse me? We are the barbaric ones? I live in New Zealand. Our natives were one of the most barbaric tribes on earth.>> <<@jaymata1218 says : 18:00 apperantly he had a pretty severe parasitic infection due to his own strict diet.

And, it’s the politicized facts. Brilliant.>> <<@TheAtheist22 says : A bit woke....thumbs down.>> <<@atre1614 says : Go bills>> <<@admiralwombat1918 says : Shame "white guilt" and "colonial shame" have dulled the story of a remarkable man. His views on native rights were more progressive than many of "woke" cancel culture critics that wish to dismantle his legacy for their own perverse self validation. Cook never cared for fame, he never begrudged Banks the credit for the forst voyage and their disagreement that led to Banks not going on the second voyage was not about Cooks ego, well incorrect - it was about Banks's ego and his insistence on turning HMV Endeavour into some sort of hedonistic pleasure ship. I take issue with your counting of the second voyage and Cooks charcter on this voyage. While correct in part it's told without context. The brutality displayed was a consequence of hostility encountered despite Cooks attempts to treat fairly with native cultures due to these cultures becoming less fearful of the English and Cook's ignorance of cultural beliefs in regard to "Spirits" not being meant to return after they have been banqueted and sent off. Cook was of a less tolerant disposition due to illness and pain yet his conviction to peacful and respectful communication never wavered and the assertion that Cook grew and egotistical god complex is completely unfounded and boarders on lible. Most contemporary writings of Cook maintain he was, right until the end humble and "of the common man" and never wavered from his humble Quaker beliefs. Of the hundreds of your videos I've enjoyed, I'm sorry to feel this one completely missed the mark and has suffered from the modern trend of diminishing and shaming anything to do with Britain's Colonial past.>> <<@merkin_muffley says : Thank you for a well-written and narrated mini biography of a man who personified the best and the worst of the British empire. In just a few minutes, with some well-selected still images, you provided an overview of an exceptional man who made the mistake of believing his flatterers, who proclaimed he was the most legendary of explorers. What sealed his fate was his lack of respect for indigenous cultures to whom he became emboldened. This cost him his life, but did not enlighten the British aristocracy about the consequences of exploiting “primitive” peoples. And so followed Britain’s ruthless conquest of what were to become its colonies, including the enslavement of Africans to harvest the sugar cane in the West Indies that was yet 0:02 😊another source of wealth for this small kingdom in the North Atlantic. Similarly, the British used opium harvested in India to addict Chinese and create a subservient class. It would be unfair to judge Cook by present-day standards. While acknowledging his severe limitations in dealing respectfully with other cultures, his audaciy should also given due credit. His skills as an explorer and his vision for what colonies could offer, established a tradition of British exploitation of faraway lands, while at the same time relegating to them British parliamentary tradition, and compared with the Spanish, Portuguese, and Belgians, an opportunity for a colonial worker to have something resembling a good life. Britain’s empire enriched a few aristocratic families, but it was not until much later the British took to heart the savage death of this great explorer and gave colonies their freedom .>> <<@Rico-Suave_ says : Great video, thank you, note to self(nts) watched all of it 21:16>> <<@kenc3288 says : Thumbs down to ads and trvialisation of a serious part of history.>> <<@soothsayer2406 says : The Hawaiins did us all a big favor by liquidating this Cook maniac who spread all sorts of diseases throughout Polynesia and who tried to kidnap a tribal chief.>> <<@Mrgunsngear says : Thanks>> <<@Jake_102._. says : if he didn’t find australia i would be in britain rn 💀>> <<@lorenzovonmatterhorn4756 says : Sounds like British propaganda.
