Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Whaler ship Pilgrim sets sail for Valparaíso through the Pacific Ocean. Aboard the ship are Captain Hull, the ship's captain, and his crew, which includes the fifteen-year-old novice, Dick Sand; Mrs. Weldon, Dick's adoptive mother who climbed into the ship out of need of a trip to her homeland, the US, along with her son Jack, her entomologist cousin Bénédict and Jack's nanny, Nan; and the cook Negoro, a man with a dubious past. Along the trip, they also rescue five black men (Tom, Bat, Actéon, Hercule and Austin) and a dog named Dingo from a wrecked ship.Their voyage sadly goes to hell when Captain Hull and his crew die attempting to hunt a whale. The passenger's fates are in the hands of Dick, who despite his age is quite capable of directing the ship with some help. Dick and the other passangers must struggle to survive the sea (and Negoro)'s challenges.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Artistic License – Biology | |
| Dick Sand, A Captain At Fifteen / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: The African chief Moini Lunga burns to death because he's an alcoholic, and his body contains, in Verne's words, "so much alcohol" to become literally flammable. In Real Life, any person would be long dead from alcohol poisoning before this would be possible. True, in some rare cases the human body can burn on its own, but what does burn is actually body fat, not consumed alcohol, which, in fact, is very efficiently broken by the body. It also takes a long time to ignite, due to high moisture content of the body, and the human has to be dead, unconscious or incapacitated, as the process is quite painful. | |

Big Damn Heroes: Hercule does this thrice during the second Story Arc. Captain Hull (who's alive there) in 1945 adaptation aids him in that. | |
