If the slaves were sick, they would usually be thrown offboard and left to swim. This is because no-one would want to buy the sick slaves.

Slaves didn't rebel on the slave ships. The slaves were chained and had to lay or sit in an odder. Slaves had to sit and lay like that for more then weeks.

What conditions did slaves endure during their capture and transport along the middle passage?

The slaves would be thrown into the deck of the ship where there would have been no space, light or dryness because there were so many of them. Many slaves died as a result of this and because of deadly diseases being passed from slave to slave. Stories tell of how one captain of a slave ship, hung up a female black slave by her foot and then whipped her because she refused to dance naked on the deck of his ship - an invasion of privacy.
