  Thanks again to Ekster for sponsoring this video! &nbsp;They sent me their Parliament wallet and it&apos;s seriously (not just for the ad) replaced my old bifold wallet for daily use. &nbsp;I also unironically use it as a fidget toy more often than I&apos;d like to admit.<br><br>Also remember that you could have seen this video a few days earlier by watching on Recast! &nbsp;My next video will be posted there in just a few days, AND, I am going to be making at least one exclusive video on that platform this month. &nbsp;It&apos;s free to use and helps me a lot more than watching on YouTube does. &nbsp;<a href="https://the.recast.app/user/5mN4d">https://the.recast.app/user/5mN4d</a>

  The &quot;Brandon F totally destroys The Patriot&quot; saga is one that never disappoints. Thanks for the video!

  Okay, here&apos;s my theory... Maybe they were TRYING to get to the port of Charleston, but made a wrong turn...it happens to the best of us. And it happened to them, because either A) they were holding the map upside down, B) when they learned that the Ashley River is only six to eight feet deep, they misunderstood it to be six to eight METERS deep, or C) the GPS wasn&apos;t working -- and it probably wouldn&apos;t since it wouldn&apos;t be invented for a couple more centuries. When they ran the ship aground in the river, they just HAPPENED to be a few hundred feet from the plantation and the fancy ball. So to save face and not have to admit to Cornwallis, Tavington, etc, that they had made a mistake, they sent somebody ashore to say &quot;We meant to do that&quot;, and decided to unload it there, hoping it would raise the ship just enough that they could get it unstuck and go on their way. Meanwhile, the other 200 men aboard saw what a hopeless mess they were in, and without Cornwallis -- or the poor sap that they had sent ashore -- knowing, they abandoned ship and skedaddled into town to check out the local night life -- and hopefully escape the punishment for their incompetent handling of one of His Majesty&apos;s ships, thus clearing the way for Mel Gibson and friends to blow up the ship. And the reason the ship didn&apos;t move while the explosions were happening? Could it be because the hull was buried in five feet of muck in the river bed and it COULDN&apos;T move? &nbsp;<br>This might not explain everything, but it&apos;s good enough for me.

  I feel like there was a real missed opportunity here to insert Fireworks Woman into the church burning scene.

  According to Assassin’s Creed the Patriots were filled with ninjas and all British were pretty much blind and deaf. I’m shocked that they even noticed the explosion.

  So after a few months of independence we have a complete separation of culture. The British are complaining about their dress and spending time in war, holding pompus balls to entertain the gentry, whilst the Americans who have in a short time have evolved a completely different accent, have disguised themselves as British soldiers covertly boarding a ship run by the most professional navy in the world at the time, leaving set explosives not disturbing the entire crew. With a comical conclusion!<br>The British may of had their disadvantages in this war, but these were senior officers of a professional army, that had been hardened over decades of wars with other European nations. This makes them look like the kind of villans you would get on a 60s Hannah Barbera cartoon. &nbsp;If this wan&apos;t bad enough, American kids actually watch this in the classroom environment, as part of their education about their nations history.
