The Wild Tale of the Hartlepool Monkey Hangers (2021x2)

Data di messa in onda: Lug 04, 2021

In this historical anecdote, we tackle a legend originating during the Napoleonic Wars from the Northeastern British town of Hartlepool! I came across this story and thought it would make the perfect candidate for my YouTube shorts debut. The tale goes that the sole survivor of a French shipwreck, a monkey dressed in a French uniform, was tried and hanged for treason by the townspeople of Hartlepool. Human or not, no French supporter can survive the wrath of propaganda fed isolated Englishmen!
