Blackbeard, whose real name was Edward Teach, was caught during a fierce battle on November 22, 1718, off the coast of Ocracoke Inlet in North Carolina. His capture was orchestrated by Lieutenant Robert Maynard of the Royal Navy, who led a surprise attack on Blackbeard's anchored ship. After a brutal fight, Maynard's crew eventually overpowered Blackbeard and killed him. Following his death, Maynard famously beheaded Blackbeard and displayed his head on the bow of his ship as a warning to other pirates.
