Walk Plank

Who here has mixed with mash and sung walking the plank? A well known notion from the days of old when piracy was on high seas. They have that reputation among pirates from the sea in which they are a child. For the sailors that did not follow their pirate captain, they were threatened to be killed in a very scary way by walking off of the plank. When it came time to be thrown overboard, they would have no choice but to walk off the end of a long board (known as a plank) and plunge into the deep dark water below. 

Pirates used the plank for a lot of things that were very important. Planks were carried on ships in order to facilitate battles by pirates boarding other vessels or for patching holes their own ship. They would expand their ship with planks and more boards. Its most infamous use, however, was born among the ranks of sailors who misbehaved. The flagship used the trial as a way to make an example of what would happen when somebody seriously disobeyed him. 

Stepping onto the Plank

Sailors would have been absolutely quaking to walk the plank. Can you imagine how they were feeling as they walked across the ship deck with every other pirate staring at them from behind? The other pirates would be looking on, ready to see what unfolded. The sailors knew what was coming and that it could be deadly in the English Channel. And so they had to keep walking until at last they found themselves standing on the edge of that plank with nowhere else left to go but down.
