1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: Your holster is way more important than you think it is. 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: It's just way more important than you think it is. 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,880 Speaker 1: What look, and I get that. The holsters not the 4 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: sexy part of carrying firearms. All right. You want to 5 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: talk about your weapon and your ammunition. You want to 6 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: talk about your safety training. You want to talk about 7 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,080 Speaker 1: how you did at the range. Oh, look at my groups. 8 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:21,959 Speaker 1: I was doing these failure drills today, and all that 9 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: stuff is really important. I mean, really really important. I'm 10 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: not discounting that, but I've known so many people who 11 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: do all those things. They take all the necessary steps, 12 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,199 Speaker 1: and then they carry with a holster they bought from 13 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,879 Speaker 1: a big box hunting store that was made a thousand 14 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: at a time. Please don't put your life in one 15 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: of those holsters. You need to trust Northwest Retention Systems 16 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:48,840 Speaker 1: because it's all custom made gear. It's the only thing 17 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: I carry around NW Retention dot Com. That's NW Retention 18 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: dot Com used to promo co Jesse gets you ten 19 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: percent off. This is a Jesse Kelly show. I want 20 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: you to imagine. So I want you to imagine you're 21 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: in your home and you're going about all the business 22 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: you usually go about in your home. I want you 23 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: to consider everything in your day to day life, whatever 24 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: that consists of morning cup of joe, maybe a little 25 00:01:53,920 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: breakfast time, maybe the coffee gets the old juices flowing, 26 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: and you gotta hit the head before you head to work, sleeping, napping, reading, 27 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 1: watching TV, putting together model airplanes, working out what all 28 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: the things you do in your home. And you're going 29 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: through every single minute of your day doing these things. 30 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: Only today is the day where at any moment, at 31 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: any moment, a sixty pounds steel cannon ball could come 32 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: blowing through that house and you have no idea where 33 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: or what it's gonna do when it gets there. One 34 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,119 Speaker 1: of the things you and I can't comprehend because it's 35 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: you can't put yourself in the mind and the feelings 36 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: of another human at another point in time, even even 37 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: when we talk about things like battles, and I know 38 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: I have so many people who are veterans. I've been 39 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: there shooting at me too. I can understand it somewhat, 40 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: but you can't put yourself in the mind of each 41 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: in every person, in every crazy situation throughout history. The 42 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: life of somebody on a naval vessel has always fascinated 43 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: me always. I just I mean, they say combat in 44 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: general is one percent pure terror percent boredom, and having 45 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: been there and done it, I will tell you one 46 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: percent true. You're just trying to keep yourself from going 47 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,839 Speaker 1: crazy from boredom half the time, and the other time 48 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: they're trying to kill you. That has to be magnified 49 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: a thousand times on board a naval vessel, because one 50 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: you're not on land, you're in the water on something 51 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: that floats. If that's something that floats ceases to float, 52 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 1: you're in a great deal of trouble. That aspect alone 53 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: is It's crazy, isn't it? Would you think about it? Yeah, 54 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: Chris said, imagine the paranoia with the U boats in 55 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: World War Two. It's so true. It's so true. That's 56 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 1: crazy enough alone. You and I love boats. Everybody in 57 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: general people love boats. I've told you before. I love 58 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: being out on the ocean, and in part because of 59 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: the danger. You look out at all the water. You 60 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: look over the side of the boat and look down. 61 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: What's down there? How deep does it go? How strong 62 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: is the current? Are there sharks under there? But that's 63 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: on a fishing vessel in Florida? What are you thinking 64 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: in the middle of the ocean on a naval boat, 65 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: going into combat, knowing either I am going to go 66 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 1: down or he is going to go down. And you 67 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: know what, there's actually a chance both of us are 68 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: going down. There's a chance. As I look out and 69 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: look down at that water, if I don't die on 70 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: the ship, I'm going to end my life in that 71 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:42,119 Speaker 1: water somehow, someway. You remember the story of the ship, 72 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis. We did. It's that famous World War two story. 73 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: Ship delivers to bomb. I'm not going into it today. 74 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: Ship goes down and the guys spend I think it 75 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: was four or five days in the water, getting eaten 76 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: by sharks, dying of thirst, everything else injured. And you 77 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: remember the horror of that. I mean great, the greatest 78 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: nightmare of all time. But here's the thing. You and 79 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: I only know the story of the Indianapolis because they're 80 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: one of the very very few who got found in time. 81 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: Many many, many many many a sailor throughout the history 82 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 1: of mankind ended his days exactly like the men on 83 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis did. You just didn't hear about it because 84 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:41,799 Speaker 1: they all died first. And that's only part of it. 85 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 1: Is the water the other part of it when it 86 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: comes to naval warfare and whatever period of time you're 87 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: dealing with. For the most part, I realized pre canon 88 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: it was more ramming of ships and stuff too, which 89 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 1: is crazy. It's crazy to me. They used to put 90 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: these huge metal spikes on the end of ships, and 91 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: that was the plan. Let's just run into him. This 92 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: is wild to me. But once cannon fire was invented, 93 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: this is another thing that I find crazy about naval battles, 94 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: naval life, your life on a navy ship then and 95 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: now now. Don't get me wrong. It's not the life 96 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: of luxury by any stretch of the imagination, and especially 97 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,679 Speaker 1: back in the day, as we talked about extensively. That's 98 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: hard living. Man, preheat, pre ac stuck in the middle 99 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: of the ocean, that's hard living. You're not exactly sleeping 100 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: in a temper pedict king sized bed. You are working 101 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: your tail off. I mean, it's hard living. However, it's 102 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: a heck of a lot better than me and on 103 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: land at war. When you're in the navy, food may 104 00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: not be great. You're eating three squares a day. If 105 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: you're not in the middle of combat, you're almost undoubtedly 106 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: getting plenty of sleep at night. You know, it's life. 107 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: Ain't the end of the world out there until combat time, 108 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: when you would, especially in the era we're about to 109 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: talk about here, combat time, you go from having a 110 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: life that was rough but okay too, you are guaranteed 111 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: to be under point blank artillery fire. That's insane to 112 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: me to think about that level of danger and fear 113 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: that must have been going into your head. Think about 114 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: an eighteen oh five, because that's the time. We're going 115 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: in an eighteen o five sailing vessel, naval vessel, two 116 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: of them, with two, three maybe four rows of cannons 117 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 1: all sticking out the side. You know, you can picture it, 118 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: seen enough pirate movies to picture what I'm talking about, 119 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:10,319 Speaker 1: coming up within fifty feet of each other and everybody 120 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: firing at the same time. What does that sound like? 121 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: What does it look like? The splinters, the metal flying everywhere. 122 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: That is unimaginable. That level of danger, that is just 123 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: unimaginable to me. So let us rewind and set things 124 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 1: up before we get to the famous Battle of Trafalgar. 125 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 1: This is the situation on the ground in eighteen oh five. 126 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: Napoleon is still king dog out there, I should mention 127 00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: if that year, that era sounds familiar to you, you 128 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: may be thinking, gosh, this is nagging at me. What's 129 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: happening there? Remember Lewis and Clark? Remember how Lewis and 130 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: Clark began their journey or what kicked off their journey. 131 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: A little thing called the Louisiana Purchase where Thomas Jefferson 132 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: bought the basically the western United States of America and 133 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: bought it from Napoleon who no longer How do you 134 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: use for it? Just give me some cash. Well, that's 135 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: right about this time, isn't it funny? How it all 136 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: overlaps Napoleon fighting this war with some American dollars. This 137 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 1: is a Jesse Kelly show. I used to sell RVs. 138 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: You know that. I was a sales manager for an 139 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 1: RV dealership, and a huge part of doing that job 140 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: was dealing with financing, getting people loans for their RVs. 141 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,559 Speaker 1: As somebody who has sold RVs, as somebody who was 142 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: bought and sold several homes, please hear me on this. 143 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: Having a good credit score is everything, absolutely everything, and 144 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: if yours is bad, you need to take steps to 145 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: raise it.

Jesse Kelly 150 00:11:54,760 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: returns next. Now, remember Louisian I look at that. It's 151 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 1: not like it's important to our story. I just think 152 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: it's really cool how many things we've talked about on 153 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: the show and how they overlap with other things. Remember 154 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: that Louisiana purchase from Napoleon was eighteen oh three battle 155 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: We're talking about today's eighteen o five, same time period, 156 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 1: and the current situation in Europe is this Napoleon has 157 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: been slapping everybody around since seventeen ninety three. You see, 158 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: this man is uniquely talented, absurdly talented, gaining victories and 159 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: then using victory used to broaden his coalition. That great 160 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: is out. The man is outstanding on the battlefield. And 161 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:12,319 Speaker 1: we have this funny way of looking at history because oftentimes, 162 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: you know, things work out in the end, don't they 163 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: Eventually over a long enough timeline, things work out in 164 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: the end. You and I are still sitting here today. 165 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: There we're all right. Every day above ground is a 166 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: good day. Well, you know, that whole Hitler thing. It's 167 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 1: a great way to think about this and how the 168 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: Allies all came together to defeat this monster who's murdering 169 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: a bunch of people and things like that, that whole 170 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: Hitler thing. You remember, what if the Allies lost not 171 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: just once, but then five ten years later Allies got 172 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: together again. All right, we really got to stop this 173 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: Hitler guy. He's killing all the Jews. Let's go, and 174 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: then lost again. What goes through your mind if you've 175 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: taken on the anti Christ and you lose, not once 176 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: but twice. We don't think about that, do we. It's 177 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: World War two America all by ourselves, stepped up, beat 178 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: those filthy Germans and the Japs. That's America. But that's 179 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: what we like to think about, right, What if the 180 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: Allies lost? It's crazy, However, at eighteen o five, at 181 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: this point, Napoleon is facing not his first, not his second, 182 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: but the third European coalition that's trying to put him down. 183 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: They've already all got together twice and taken on this guy, 184 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: and he's still standing there. Are you feeling like your 185 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: her world is going to end. Britain certainly was because 186 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: they were still standing there taking it. Now, Britain has 187 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: this incredible navy. This is the I mean, this is 188 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: probably the crown jewel of the Royal Navy. We've talked 189 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: so much about this throughout you know my shows. You 190 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 1: know by now the it's an island nation. They prioritize 191 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: navy absurdly and they're really, really, really good at it. 192 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: It's really funny because Napoleon has no use for it. Now, 193 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: I say no use. He understands very well he has 194 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 1: to have a navy. He has to have a very 195 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: powerful navy. He wants to have a very powerful navy. 196 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: He just his mind doesn't work that way. He's a 197 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: land army, guys. It's not only that he's annoyed that 198 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: there are places he's outdone and outfoxed, and these stinking 199 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: dirty Brits are blockading his sports. He's not getting the trade. 200 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: It's dry. It's one of these things that drives Napoleon battie. 201 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: He can't handle it. That's how Napoleon's feeling about it. 202 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: I hate these people. I want to destroy these people. 203 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: They had a brief year long in yearlong piece called 204 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: the Piece of Aina in eighteen o two at lasted 205 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: a year and immediately they're fighting again. This is not 206 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: going to work, Napoleon and Britain. They're not going to 207 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: just coexist side by side. It's one of these situations 208 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: that's called how would you say this untenable? About that? 209 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: Chris Boom, look that up. I just heard that word. 210 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: I want to make sure it means exactly what I 211 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: think it means. The situation is untenable. If that word 212 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: means what I think, piece is broken, they're back at 213 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 1: each other's throats. Now here's how the navies are composed one. 214 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: The French navy is not just the French navy. It's 215 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: the French and the Spanish together. If it sounds like 216 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 1: France is kind of all over the place in this 217 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: Napoleonic era, it's because they are. They're against them, they're 218 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: for them, they're against them, they're for them, oftentimes not 219 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 1: by choice. But the Spanish navy in the French Navy 220 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: is one thing, and they are facing off against the 221 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: British navy. Napoleon has one hundred thousand men and he 222 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: wants to land them on England and have them take 223 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:47,400 Speaker 1: England once and for all. Just get my hundred thousand 224 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 1: dudes onto the shore so I can finish off these 225 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: pesky Brits who never have much of a land army. 226 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: The problem for Napoleon is, as always when you're dealing 227 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 1: with Britain, how do I get them there? Pre flight? 228 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: In the era pre flight, you gotta sail them. There's 229 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,439 Speaker 1: the English Channel, you gotta cross it. The English know 230 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:18,360 Speaker 1: this as well. They have their elite fleet patrolling that channel. 231 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 1: You ain't just walking them across. And here's the real 232 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: danger if you're Napoleon. It's not losing a naval battle. 233 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 1: It's losing all the men on the ships. It's one 234 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: thing to have men die randomly in battle, it's another. 235 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 1: It's quite another to have a hundred thousand men on 236 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: ships that go down to the bottom of the ocean. 237 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 1: That is a fast, devastating way to lose an entire army. 238 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: You can't risk it. You have got to do something 239 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: to get these dirty Brits out of the way so 240 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:58,880 Speaker 1: you can sail across the channel and land them on England. 241 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 1: So here's what Napoleon comes up with. He has a 242 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 1: man in charge of his fleet called Villeneuve, Villa, Neueve, 243 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 1: villa Neeve. I've heard it pronounced a thousand different ways. 244 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: I'm going to call him Villaneve today, but that's almost 245 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 1: undoubtedly wrong. If you're going to email me and tell 246 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 1: me the correct way, that's fine, but I really don't care. 247 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: He's not an American Chris let see. So you're welcome 248 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 1: to email me Jesse at Jesse Kelly show dot com. 249 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: And I should clarify about Villaneve. Villaneve is an extremely 250 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:42,719 Speaker 1: incapable commander of a fleet. However, to his credit, he 251 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: never claimed to be a great capable commander of a fleet. 252 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: He never claimed to be good at it at all. 253 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: He's just simply the best Napoleon has. Now. I don't 254 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 1: know about you, but as I was digging into the 255 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 1: Battle of Trafalgar and I find the British Navy has 256 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: all these elite commanders and the French Navy doesn't have 257 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: squat for elite commanders, I found myself asking why that 258 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 1: doesn't make sense to me? Well, maybe you've heard this 259 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 1: little thing called the French Revolution, so have I. It 260 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: turns out the French Revolution, as you probably already know, 261 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:32,880 Speaker 1: involved the execution of many of the higher class members 262 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:34,640 Speaker 1: of British society. We want to put it that way. 263 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: Higher class the aristocracy probably a better way to put it. Well, okay, 264 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: that's fine. Maybe you're one of those people eat the rich. 265 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: I'm not, but that's fine. However, you do pay a 266 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 1: penalty for things like that. It turns out the commanders, 267 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: most of the commanders, the officers, the people with experience 268 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 1: in the French naval service who not only command your 269 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: ships but train the next generation of officers to command 270 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 1: their ships. You chopped their heads off in the French Revolution. 271 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: So Napoleon's putting together a navy and he just doesn't 272 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: have the long seasoned, experienced naval commanders. He has people 273 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 1: like this idiot Villa Nave, and he's got to figure 274 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: out how to break this blockade. So he has a plan. 275 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:51,919 Speaker 1: Hang on, you need to have gold in your portfolio. 276 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: You simply do. Because there's absolutely too much uncertainty out there. 277 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,439 Speaker 1: You know what's coming forgetting about the financial bubble, I've 278 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: already talked to you about. You know, we have an 279 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: election coming up, and I'm not gonna drop any names here, 280 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 1: but if the results of the election go a certain 281 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: way history shows. The stock market reacts. That's putting it mildly. 282 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 1: The stock market reacts. Get a gold Ira before that happens, 283 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: before election day. And Gold Alliance they make it completely easy. 284 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: They're gonna walk you through every single step start to finish. 285 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:41,679 Speaker 1: Go to Gold Alliance dot com slash jesse. That's Gold 286 00:22:41,840 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: Alliance dot com slash jesse. Make sure you're protected from trouble. Well, 287 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: you can't shoot your way past the English right now 288 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 1: on the high seas. And half the reason you can't 289 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: shoot your way past the English on the high seas 290 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: is they have all your freaking ports blockaded. You need 291 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 1: to come up with a plan. And the man in 292 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: charge of the British fleet, he is a famous, famous 293 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: human being. He's called Horatio Nelson. We will get back 294 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: to that. That's one of only two names you really 295 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: need to remember today. Villaneve is in charge of the 296 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 1: French fleet, Horatio Nelson in charge of the British fleet. 297 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:58,640 Speaker 1: Villaneve and Napoleon come up with an idea. If we 298 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 1: want to pull this man massive British Navy away from 299 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 1: where they're guarding the British shores, why don't we head 300 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: over the Caribbean or the Caribbean, however you say it, 301 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: it sounds weird, But the Caribbean is obviously a profitable 302 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: British colony, as you well know by now because you 303 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: listen to my show, and it's not very well defended. 304 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 1: The Brits have a reason it's not very well defended. 305 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 1: We can't hardly stock the navy up in the Caribbean. 306 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: We were trying to fight off this short little tyrant 307 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: over here in Europe. The French bust out and they 308 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: head for the Caribbean. Now Here is one of the 309 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:47,360 Speaker 1: funny things about ancient combat, especially ancient naval combat. Something 310 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 1: you and I don't really wrap our minds around too 311 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: much because of modern technology, is they didn't leave a 312 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: note with the Brits on the way out of town 313 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 1: saying we're heading to the Caribbean. The Brits see the 314 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: French breakout and Nelson. Nelson doesn't have any idea where 315 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 1: they went. He thinks they might have gone to the Indies. 316 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: He thinks they might have gone to Egypt. In fact, 317 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: he heads to Egypt first. Egypt is absurdly profitable. Trade 318 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: routes need to stay open. Nelson's all maybe they went 319 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: down there. He finally figures out they're on the way 320 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 1: across the ocean, takes off after them, and it's just 321 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: this long, brutally slow naval plotting thing. However, they don't 322 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 1: pull enough guys out to actually open up the English Channel. 323 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: These Brits are not stupid. Yeah, I don't think we'll 324 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: be sending the whole fleet over there. No. Napoleon, now frustrated, 325 00:25:55,560 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: very very frustrated, decides he's going to abandon the Asian 326 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,360 Speaker 1: of Britain and he's just going to take this huge 327 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 1: army and he's going to move them to Austria and Russia. Instead. 328 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 1: Fleet makes its way back over to Europe and now 329 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: they see each other. And here's one of the things 330 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: I want you to understand. Horatio Nelson is in charge 331 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: of the British fleet. The British ships at this time 332 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 1: they were made for a fist fight. They were short 333 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: and squat and strong, built like tanks. They're built to 334 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: blockade in your people, because I know if you want out, 335 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: you've got to come but right up against me and 336 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: we'll have a good old fashioned fist fight. That French 337 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,679 Speaker 1: ships and I mean they're French and Spanish. I'm just 338 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 1: gonna call him Friendships are long and fast with sales. 339 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: They can move, really, really move. It's one of these 340 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 1: real I mean, people love this battle because it's such 341 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: a prize fighter thing. It's such a you know, it's 342 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: a Muhammad Ali dancing around the ring, light on his 343 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:15,239 Speaker 1: feet versus Joe Frazier. He wants to get right up 344 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: in your face and left hook your jaw into outer space. 345 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: You need to think of the Brits like Joe Frasier, 346 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: the French like Ali, except the French don't have a 347 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: commander like Muhammad Ali's brain. They have Villaneve. The Brits, however, 348 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: they have this Nelson, and Nelson knows exactly what he 349 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: wants to do. Nelson wants to slam into this French 350 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:52,239 Speaker 1: column in the center of it and the rear of it, 351 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:56,640 Speaker 1: essentially cutting them off from the front of it. That's 352 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: what he wants to do, and he wants to and 353 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: I've got to try to explaining this to you. It's 354 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 1: going to be easy. Bear with me. He wants to 355 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: cross the tea of the French. And this is what 356 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: I mean by crossing the tea. When ships sail, whether civilian, 357 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: naval or otherwise. In general, you need to think of 358 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: them as sailing in a line. Now they spread out 359 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,360 Speaker 1: a little, but they're sailing in one long line. There's 360 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 1: a line of ships, all right. That's the vertical part 361 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: of the tea. What you want to do and what 362 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: they want to do to you a naval warfare, it's 363 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: become the top part of the tea. You want to 364 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: cross their tea, which will allow you, if you picture it, 365 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: you can use the broadside where all your cannons are, 366 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: all your broadside guns to shoot at all their ships. 367 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: They can hardly use any of their guns to shoot 368 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: at you at all, maybe a few guns up front. 369 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: Your rear guns are completely useless as somebody has crossed 370 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: your tea. And what's wild is this did not change 371 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: once we left the era of sail into eras like 372 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 1: World War One. They're still crossing the tea period trying 373 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: to cross his tea. Naval warfare it can get boring, almost, 374 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: but it's really all about maneuvering. I mean, so much 375 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: of it's about maneuvering. And when I say maneuvering, think 376 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: of the vast ocean distances. Now imagine that in nothing 377 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 1: but sail, nothing but sail driven ships. And you're going 378 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: at two miles an hour. You know you walk at 379 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: three or four right unless you're a hobbit two miles 380 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: an hour. Think about that. Think how grindingly slow that is. 381 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: And this is what's wild in this era and the 382 00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: era of cannon before the huge naval guns. You can 383 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: picture now not only can you see each other, you 384 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: can see each other a long, long, long time before 385 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: you're actually fighting. You're gonna wake up in the morning 386 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: and look across the ocean and see the French navy there. 387 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: You're going to try to maneuver yourself in position and 388 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 1: fight them and all these other things. It might be 389 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: dinner time before the first cannon shot. How are your 390 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: nerves doing for seven or eight hours as you await 391 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: getting your artillery blown? Imagine that. I just can't wrap 392 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: my mind around that. Now. Horatio Nelson knows what he's doing, 393 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: as I said, Villeneuve does not. Horatio Nelson wants to 394 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: cross their tea in two different places, like I said, 395 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: two different columns. One of his columns, his second column, 396 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 1: it's going to if he angles it right, crossed the 397 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: tea in the British rear Horatio Nelson's column. To his credit, 398 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: he's smashing right into the center of this thing. And 399 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: when I say him, I mean him personally with his 400 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 1: other ships. I think that's so freaking cool. Could easily 401 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: have held back. He stayed back in the flagship. I'll 402 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: get some orders from there. Just doing good, guys, keep 403 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: it up. Oh that look like it hurt. I wouldn't know. 404 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 1: I'm back here sipping brandy and staring at maps. Not 405 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: not Horatio Nelson. Horatio Nelson sends you guys in. He's 406 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: going in, and he was. I mean, he was basically 407 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: born for this. His father was a captain, grew up 408 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: on naval vessels, and you know how that goes. Born 409 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 1: for this. He'd forgotten more about commanding naval vessels than 410 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: than Villeneuve. Whatever. No, in the plan, it works to perfection. 411 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 1: They slam into the ships in two different places, and 412 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: we need to discuss the cannon fire here for just 413 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 1: a moment. Truth attitude, Jesse Kelly, you know you're going 414 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: to have some card trouble, right. I am not wishing 415 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: it on you, believe me. I'm not. It's just it's 416 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: always going to happen. At some point you're going to 417 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 1: have car trouble. They don't make them that lasts forever. 418 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: And when you have card trouble, gosh, those bills what 419 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 1: it costs to get one fixed is just staggering.

Now, 430 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,879 Speaker 1: this part's going to get controversial, so before I get there, 431 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: let's set up the cannon part. Cannonballs aren't all cannon balls. 432 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: The movies make that way simpler than it actually was. 433 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 1: One even in this era, understand that cannons on ships 434 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: were way bigger than cannons on land because you can't 435 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: move a heavy, heavy, heavy cannon on land. On a ship, 436 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: you can carry around a heavy cannon on land. Your 437 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: cannonball shooting ten twelve pound cannonballs on the ship fifty 438 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: pound cannonballs. That's sixty pound cannonballs. Thirty I mean that 439 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 1: is huge when you consider what thirty pounds is. If 440 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: you have dumbbells in your house, pick up, pick up 441 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: a thirty pounder, form that into a metal ball and 442 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: fire it into the house next door out of a cannon. 443 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 1: It is absurd. And when you think about when you 444 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: think about the damage that does on the other end 445 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:24,399 Speaker 1: to a human being, it's gruesome. Horatio Nelson at this point, 446 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: as he's the commander of the British troops, is missing 447 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: an eye and an arm in his life from previous 448 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 1: naval battles. You go into one of these naval battles 449 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: enough times you're coming out of it dead or missing 450 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: vital parts of your anatomy when you're throwing metal through 451 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:47,399 Speaker 1: the air like that at that range. But again, it's 452 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: not just the balls. Please be mature, Chris, Please be mature. 453 00:35:53,480 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: I'm trying to please. It's they had a thing called 454 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:08,719 Speaker 1: chain shot. Chain shot is two smaller balls. We're not 455 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: gonna be able to do this if you keep this up, please, 456 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 1: two smaller balls held together by an iron rod or 457 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 1: a chain, and they would shoot that at the sails, 458 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,879 Speaker 1: at the masts. When you think about what that would 459 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 1: do when shot out of a cannon, what they're trying 460 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,320 Speaker 1: to do is shoot down your sails so you can't 461 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,440 Speaker 1: move anymore trying to hit It's the best way I 462 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 1: can put this. The huge stick that sticks out of 463 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,839 Speaker 1: your ship with the sails on it, that's what they're 464 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 1: trying to hit with the chain shot. Essentially it turns 465 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: into a flying chain saw. And they have anti personnel 466 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 1: ones where they just fill it up with wee little 467 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 1: balls that essentially make it gigantic buckshot. Picture you and 468 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: your ten buddies trying to operate a cannon on the 469 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: deck of a ship, and the opposing cannon fifty feet 470 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 1: away opens up full of deck shot. How's your buddy 471 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: look now? Nelson slams into the middle, just like he 472 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 1: said he would, and those short squat British ships start 473 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 1: simply pummeling these French and Spanish ships to dust. The 474 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: French and Spanish initially are making a real good show 475 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 1: of it. But they're being outgunned. And part of the 476 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 1: reason you're they're being outgunned is they got their tea 477 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 1: crossed one two. The French navy, the vanguard, the guys 478 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: at the head of it, they're not involved in the 479 00:37:56,080 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 1: fighting right because they're out ahead. He claims it was 480 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: the winds, and what doot. He doesn't really turn around 481 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 1: and come back. He just keeps on a sailing and 482 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 1: it was a real point of disgrace after that. But 483 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:21,760 Speaker 1: the Brits start blowing the French out of the water, 484 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,359 Speaker 1: blowing them out of the water. The final casualties at 485 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: the end of the Battle of Trafalgar were like twelve 486 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: hundred for the British and six seven thousand for the 487 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 1: French and the Spanish. They're just shattering these ships. But 488 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: at one point in time, the big man goes down. 489 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 1: You see the French. They were very capable marksmen. Again, 490 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 1: this was an excellent excellent, I mean, the most powerful 491 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:53,280 Speaker 1: land force on Earth by a long shot at this time. 492 00:38:55,000 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 1: They had marksmen trained. One of them sets his sights 493 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 1: on mister Horatio Nelson himself fires a bullet. It was 494 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 1: just a musketball, but I'm gonna call it. A bullet 495 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:21,240 Speaker 1: fires a musketball boom slices through Nelson's spine and into 496 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:28,800 Speaker 1: one of his lungs.
