Francois L'Ollonais, French Pirate

Francois L'Ollonais (1635 - 1668) was a French pirate. He was an expert torturer, and his techniques included slicing portions of flesh off the victim with a sword, burning them alive, and woolding, which involved tying knotted rope around the victim's head until their eyes were forced out. He and his men raped, pillaged and burned much of Maracaibo before moving south to Gibraltar. Despite being outnumbered, the pirates slaughtered 500 soldiers of Gibraltar's garrison and held the city for ransom. He ran aground on a sandbar on the coast of Darien. They headed inland to find food, but were captured by the Kuna tribe and he was eaten by the natives.
