Barbossa's Peg Leg

[rustkarl]

The fact that he actually shares it with Jack after he says “I want one of those.” is rather sweet.
And Jack promising him to get the chance for shared revenge was also rather nice.

The fact they don’t show a flashback of the fight for this is actually great the viewer creates a excellent visual in their head

[fadyelkady]

"oh you'd got a knife that's great "
"better "

[sarahmaters]

"I'm the master of my ship, not Blackbeard. I'm the master of my fate, not Blackbeard!"
I absolutely love this line

[oogiegaming]

I love the chemistry these two developed over time.

The look Hector gives Jack after Jack gets his hands free very clearly says: "I have no idea how in the blazing fires of Hell you did that, but I've known you long enough not to question it."

They went from “first mate betrayed me, let me kill him”

To “our hatred is wasted on old, scarred veterans of life like us. Let the young have their burning hatred...but we can still get under each other’s skin. For...old times sake, yes??”

[Omnikron]

That's why I love these two. On the surface, they're rivals that are always trying to outdo each other, but deep down they have great respect for the other.

Barbosa betrayed Jack so Jack shot him for it. Even. Now, strenuous friends with respect.
"I'll see you get the chance at revenge mate."

[animestein]

Barbossa: but me arms were free and me sword was stand, so I did what needed done.
Jack: you cut the ropes?
Barbossa: (O)-(O)....

[ezekieltheappeal]

Barbossa's storytelling makes imagination look real that i dont even need a flashback to see it

[catfacepoetry]

"Why should I? Four of you tried to kill me, one of you succeeded"

[venox]

Barbosa tells the best stories ghost stories lol

[samalvey]

"Our own ship turned against us."

He sounds so heartbroken when he says that. He loved the Pearl as much as Jack and for her to betray him, even if she was forced to by Blackbeard's magic, cuts deeper and sharper than even the loss of his leg.

[gregberzinski]

After Barbossa cuts off his leg...

"Ya know, I probably should have just cut the rope."

[promusicality]

This has got to be my favorite part in the entire movie. Barbossa's story -- how he lost his leg and his ship -- sends chills up and down my spine every time I hear it. The ghost sounds in the background, the expression in his voice and on his face, the look on Jack's own face as he puts things together...all that together, plus the story itself of course, makes for an intensity unrivaled by any other scene. And I love it.

If I ever get a prostetic leg I am def gonna store something in it

[Cheezeblade]

barbossa was introduced as a walking cursed skeleton pirate. He was a legit monster. The fact that he can spin a story that chilling even though the audience has seen him as a monster too is impressive.

[ZoeTheKage]

What I admire about Barbossa is that he always stood as his own man, a true pirate, and a true captain all by himself apart from characters like Will and Elizabeth who seemed to constantly need Jack to save their asses at the end of the day. Even tho he betrayed Jack multiple times, Jack has a lot of mutual respect for him, enough so that he made him his first mate all those years ago. Even now, he knows Barbossa is fully capable & willing to get his revenge on his own but he’s still willing to help due to that mutual respect. Both these men are great characters.

Barbossa cut off his own leg to escape the ropes, managed to escape and not bleed to death, join the british navy despite being a renowned pirate who had a massive hand in taking down Cutler Beckett, managed to lead an expedition to the fountain of youth in order to kill Blackbeard with one leg and a poisoned blade and proceeded to steal Blackbeard’s sword, crew and ship and use the vessel and magic that previously started this plot of revenge. What an actual legend
