Howdy and Welcome back to Wild West Deep Dives. This is Part 1 of our Deep Dive Series into the life of Hugh Glass.

Hugh Glass, known as the legendary fur trapper that survived a bear attack and had an almost unbelievable story of survival. As well as being the inspiration behind the movie the Revenant. But.. did you know he was pirate? Your damn right, Hugh Glass was a pirate. There is a whole lot more to Hugh Glass then Hollywood portrayed.

We got pirates, we got Native Americans, we got a bear attack, and most importantly, we have his damn rifle!

Well, let’s get into it shall we!
