Disney's famous film, "Pirates of the Caribbean, which stared Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow, comes into mind when we mention the word "Pirate". Wooden leg, black eye-patch, hook, beard are just some of the typical Pirate Cliches. What exactly is a Pirate, you may ask? Pirate's committed acts of robberies on sea and even on land. They would mostly sail around in their ships and plunder trading ships. Although Pirate's did have cool nicknames like "Black Beard' and "Black Bart", it was said that the nicknames were given to prevent government officials from knowing their true identity.

Some Pirates wore hoop earrings, but not as a fashion statement. They actually wore earrings because they believed that piercing their ears with silver or gold would improve tremendously their eyesight. Pirates are also known for wearing a black eye-patch. The eye-patch was said to be worn because switching from being on deck to under deck actually took the eyes some time to adjust. On deck was too bright and under deck was too dark. What they would do is wear the eye-patch over one eye while on deck, then switch to the other eye once below deck.
