Another thing we mostly have no clue about thanks to most of our maps is how massively large the Pacific ocean is.
And somehow fellas just sort of wandered to places like pitcairn islands, chance of a million.
Pitcairn islands are a great wikipedia rabbit hole if you're into freaky crazy shit btw.
There's a whole season of the podcast Extremities about Pitcairn. Totally worth it.
thank you hans
What a wild read. Thanks for sharing
The band Rasputina does a good bit about the Pitcairn Islands.

Yeah the mutineers are one thing but wait til you get to the extent of child rape on the island that reached the point at which most of it was brushed off since essentially the whole island would've had its total male population imprisoned. Some wacky ass shit going down there let me tell ya.
Most shit is ass shit.
This is the kind of deep insight I stay on Lemmy for.
Ended up watching this awesome indie documentary about it: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Gr7MWxADnko
