I found the headless pirate's head!

 I've found the headless pirate’s head! Well, his skull. It’s in a museum in Hamburg in Germany. See the spike sticking up in it? When he was killed, his head was displayed on a spike to warn others not to be pirates. Stortebeker isn’t his real name but a nickname. It means to empty the mug in one gulp. So I reckon he drank lots of beer. The model is what they think he looked like. He reminds me of my friend Ben Hudson, from the Sea Wolf!
