Edward Teach, a.k.a Blackbeard, punished a mutinous crew by banishing them on a tiny island in the Caribbean Sea. Each crewman was given a cutlass and some drink to survive the snake infested place. He also hoped that they would eventually get rid of each other. But returning after a month, he found that fifteen of them still survived. What is this tale supposed to be the origin of?\n<\/p>\n
