13	->''Up comes Tim without any legs,\
14	And in their place he had two wooden pegs:\
15	"Well was it walkin' upon the sea\
16	Wore your two fine legs from the knees away?"''
17	-->-- ''My Son Tim'', Irish traditional[[note]]As sung by John Francis Flynn and others[[/note]]
18
19	An [[StockCostumeTraits iconic trait]] of seamen of all kinds, be they pirates, sailors or fishermen, is to have a wood (might also be metal, bone or some other material) stump in place of one of their missing legs, which they probably lost to a [[ThreateningShark shark]], whale, [[NeverSmileAtACrocodile crocodile]] or other aquatic hazard somewhere. As would be expected of any character that lives a dangerous life at the sea, expect said characters to be {{Badass}}es, often of the {{retired\|Badass}} variant.
20
21	This was TruthInTelevision as several pirates, privateers and admirals had those during the modern era. Before the invention of antibiotics in the early 20th century, [[AmputationStopsSpread a broken or otherwise injured limb would often become infected. It was therefore common practice to amputate.]] Unlike the stereotype, however, a character with a wooden leg would most often become the ship's cook, as the peg leg meant he couldn't climb the rigging anymore.
22
23	A form of ArtificialLimbs and a typical feature of a character that is DressedToPlunder. A SisterTrope to HookHand.

29
30	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
31	* ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'' features a pirate captain who has this among almost every other stereotypical pirate trait. In a slight turn of realism, he needs to use a crutch to get around, but he still manages to be a HandicappedBadass though virtue of being handy with a blade, a CombatPragmatist, and keeping a few secret weapons stashed on his person. One of which includes a holdout blade hidden ''in'' his pegleg.
32	* ''Franchise/OnePiece'':
33	** As a series about pirates, it inevitably has an example in the form of "Red Leg" Zeff, a retired pirate whose kicking strength was legendary (and still is fairly strong nowadays), but he had to sacrifice one of his legs [[spoiler: in order to eat it so he wouldn't die from hunger while stranded in a desert island with a young Sanji, who had all the "regular" food]].
34	** The main antagonist of the tenth movie ''Anime/OnePieceFilmStrongWorld'', Shiki, is a legendary pirate with ''two swords'' replacing both his legs (which he had to cut in order to escape jail). It was not a big deal for him though, thanks to his [[GravityMaster floating powers]].
35	[[/folder]]
36
37	[[folder:Audio Plays]]
38	* ''AudioPlay/BigFinishDoctorWho'': In "[[Recap/BigFinishDoctorWho043DoctorWhoAndThePirates Doctor Who and the Pirates]]", Evelyn is trying to make sure Red Jasper is considered [[ObviouslyEvil the bad guy]] by making him DressedToPlunder and giving him every RedRightHand she can think a pirate should have - one eye, two peg legs, two {{hook hand}}s, etc. She later admits that she is embellishing, but other events in the story indicate that Jasper has at least one wooden leg.
39	[[/folder]]
40
41	[[folder:Comic Books]]
42	* Triple-Patte (Three-Legs), originally from the French comic ''ComicBook/BarbeRouge'' but [[ParodyDisplacement far better known for his appearances]] in ''ComicBook/{{Asterix}}''. In both cases he functions as TheSmartGuy, giving out appropriate Latin quotes and hitting people with his crutch.
43	* ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1942'': The submarine captain ComicBook/{{Huntress}} villain the Sea Lion has a hook hand and peg leg, to give him a pirate-like air.
44	[[/folder]]
45
46	[[folder:Comic Strips]]
47	* Wiley from Johnny Hart's ''ComicStrip/{{BC}}'' has never sailed the seas, but he does have a peg leg. Wiley functions as poet / bartender / coach among his cave-dwelling peers.
48	* ''ComicStrip/TheFarSide'' has numerous examples.
49	** An old sailor is pointing at his peg leg and saying "Well, that's not such a bad story... But wait 'til you hear how I lost this!" to a man with a peg ''head''.
50	** A pirate gets a beauty treatment from his crew, which includes working on his peg leg with a file.
51	** A snake-pirate has had his entire body replaced with a wooden peg.
52	** Another caveman has crude pegs replacing his various limbs.. because he's been training his enormous pet TerrorDactyl to "perch" on them.
53	[[/folder]]
54
55	[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
56	* Despite not being a pirate, King Fergus from ''{{WesternAnimation/Brave}}'' wears a peg-leg due to one of his legs being bitten off by [[BearsareBadNews Mor'du]] in the prologue.
57	* Gobber the Belch from ''Franchise/HowToTrainYourDragon'' is a [[HornyVikings viking]] with an artificial arm and leg, both which he made himself. [[spoiler: Hiccup, who gets his own peg leg at the end of the first movie]] could technically count as well.
58	* ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie'': Both of Metalbeard's legs (and most of his other body parts) are mechanical, but one of his legs is built in a way that makes it resemble a peg leg.
59	* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyTheMovie2017'': Captain Celaeno of the SkyPirate (which are not {{pirate parrot}}s, but parrot pirates), when in full gear, has a crystal peg on her lower right leg. While she's working for the Storm King, it's just a plain old wooden leg.
60	* ''WesternAnimation/TheSeaBeast'' has at least one case with Sara Sharpe. It's a little hard to have that trope ''not'' show up when an entire group of characters can be summed up as "HunterOfMonsters with a FriendlyPirate culture".
61	* Long John Silver from Disney's ''WesternAnimation/TreasurePlanet'' has a pneumatic peg leg, one of many cybernetic fittings. Jim Hawkins punctures it, crippling Silver, which allows him to escape the galley with intel that the ''Legacy's'' crew is composed of pirates.
62	[[/folder]]
63
64	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
65	* A peg leg-wearing pirate is featured in ''Film/TheBlackPirate''.
66	* In ''Film/{{Fantomas}} Unleashed'', [[Creator/LouisDeFunes Commissioner Juve]] goes to the MasqueradeBall in a pirate costume, complete with eyepatch and peg leg — doubling as a machine gun.
67	* In ''Film/{{Pirates}}'', there's Captain Thomas Batholomew Red. He has to cut it in two when it gets stuck as he tries to board the Spanish galeon, and gets a new one from a woodworker who happens to be aboard.
68	* ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'':
69	** Davy Jones has a crab leg that presents the same problems as an ordinary peg leg.
70	** Captain Barbossa loses his leg sometime after ''[[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanAtWorldsEnd At World's End]]'', having [[LifeOrLimbDecision sacrificed it]] to escape from Blackbeard, and has a peg leg in ''[[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanOnStrangerTides On Stranger Tides]]''. Fitting, since he's been the most stereotypical pirate throughout the series. Then, he had it hollowed out and ''uses it as his personal bottle of rum''. You can't get more pirate-y than that.
71	* Creator/TheAsylum did a SettingUpdate of ''Literature/MobyDick'', in which Captain Ahab has a modern artificial leg, after losing the previous one to the MonsterWhale.
72	[[/folder]]
73
74	[[folder:Literature]]
75	* In ''Literature/AubreyMaturin'', there is a minor character who loses a leg and reappears as the captain of an East Indiaman, having few prospects in the Royal Navy as a result. Another minor character is an elderly officer in a similar position, but still in the Navy; Aubrey appoints him captain of a prize vessel, effectively pensioning him off (because the Navy Board will, by convention, confirm the promotion but not employ the officer again, thereby placing him on half-pay indefinitely).
76	* In Creator/FredSaberhagen's ''Literature/{{Berserker}}: Blue Death'', space captain Nils Domingo loses his leg leading a BoardingParty against the Berserkers about halfway through the book. [[{{Homage}} Much like Captain Ahab]], he has a prosthetic made from Berserker steel.
77	* ''Literature/TheBountyTrilogy'': Huggan, the ship's surgeon, has a peg leg. He lost his leg when his ship engaged in combat with John Paul Jones during UsefulNotes/TheAmericanRevolution.
78	* Bush in the ''Literature/HoratioHornblower'' series. At the end of ''Ship of the Line'', Lieutenant Bush loses his leg, and in ''Flying Colours'' he gets a wooden leg and a promotion to Captain. He then serves under Hornblower as Captain of the ship ''Nonsuch'' in ''Commodore Hornblower'' and ''Lord Hornblower''.
79	* ''Literature/DeptfordMice'': In ''Thomas'', a book in the prequel trilogy, Mulligan has a peg leg. It is explained that he lost his leg in a battle with the [[BigBad Big Bads]], [[ReligionOfEvil the Scale]].
80	* Dodder from ''Literature/TheLittleGreyMenSeries'' has a peg leg made from bone, and is skipper of a clockwork steamboat.
81	* Captain Ahab from ''Literature/MobyDick'' is one of the {{Trope Codifier}}s (to the point that some examples on this page are [[{{Expy}} Expies]] of either him or Long John Silver mentioned below). Captain Ahab lost a leg during a previous whaling voyage while hunting the white whale and now has a grudge against it. In fact, his missing leg is the main force that drives his revenge plot against the titular whale. He had his peg leg made from a sperm whale's jawbone while at sea; late in the story, he damages it and has the ship's carpenter make him a new one. It's mentioned that Ahab had a earlier serious accident, in which the leg apparently broke and the broken stump stabbed him in the groin. In the Creator/PatrickStewart film adaptation, one of the crew throws a scare into the others by coming down the ladder using one leg and a stick.
82	* Creator/LFrankBaum's character Cap'n Bill is a retired but competent salt with a wooden leg; he and his young friend Trot were originally the protagonists of ''Literature/TheSeaFairies'', and then were transferred to the ''Franchise/LandOfOz'' series when the former project failed to be a commercial success.
83	* ''Literature/TheSeaWolf'': Implied in the first chapter. The "red-faced man" is clearly an experienced seaman and though he's wearing long trousers, walks in an odd way that Van Weyden surmises is caused by having two artificial legs.
84	* Jonathan Small from the ''Literature/SherlockHolmes'' novel ''Literature/TheSignOfTheFour'' is a former soldier who lost his leg to a crocodile while serving the British army in India and replaced it accordingly. He has also sailed throughout the world, although that happened after losing his leg.
85	* Long John Silver of ''Literature/TreasureIsland'' is the other {{Trope Codifier}}, although he didn't have a peg leg in the original book, using a crutch to help him move around instead. The peg leg would originate in later adaptations. And, in keeping with the TruthInTelevision mentioned in the trope description, he ''was'' the ship's cook! (Though it's not specified whether that was also his job before he lost his leg.)
86	[[/folder]]
87
88	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
89	* On ''Series/BlackSails'', John Silver loses the lower part of his leg at the end of season 2. In season 3 he is using a metal peg leg to move about. He is warned that he should be using a crutch instead since the amputation is still too recent for him to use a peg leg. He risks reopening the wound and losing the rest of his leg. He abandons the leg for a book-accurate crutch at the beginning of season 4.
90	* In the ''Series/GetSmart'' two-part episode "Ship of Spies", the captain of the ship has a peg leg which makes a distinctive "clip-clop" sound when he walks - practically everyone else on the ship makes the same noise.
91	* ''Series/WhodunnitUK'': Blackbeard, the pirate who acts of detective in "Which Eye Jack", sports a wooden leg as part of his DressedToPlunder look.
92	[[/folder]]
93
94	[[folder:Music]]
95	* Music/{{Alestorm}}: "Wooden Leg" details how the narrator lost both his legs to cannon fire from a Spanish ship, then got into a bar fight with a samurai who cut off his arms, giving him two peg legs and two peg arms. In "Wooden Leg, Pt 2 (The Woodening)" he hunts down his enemies, cuts off their limbs, and uses voodoo magic for some AppendageAssimilation. [[spoiler: the stolen limbs turn out to be possessed and drive him to madness and suicide.]]
96	* Music/DropkickMurphys' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-64CaD8GXw "I'm Shipping Up to Boston"]] (with lyrics that Music/WoodyGuthrie wrote decades earlier but never set to music) is an odd little shanty-like song about a sailor with a wooden leg, which he lost while he was climbing up the topsail, and now he's "shipping up to Boston" in search of it.
97	* Music/StanRogers' "Barrett's Privateers" has its main character lose both of his legs during an ill-fated battle with an American merchant ship, though whether he received any replacements for them is ambiguous.
98	--> ''The Antelope shook and pitched on her side\
99	(How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!)\
100	Barrett was smashed like a bowl of eggs\
101	And the main truck carried off both me legs\
102	Goddamn them all!''
103	* The traditional Irish sea shanty ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxaJ_obGKKM My Son Tim]]'',[[note]]or John, in some versions[[/note]] (which provides the page quote) tells of an inexperienced sailor whose legs were blown off by a cannon ball in battle. In some versions, [[MamaBear his mother]] vows revenge against the leaders of the countries whose soldiers harmed him; in others, such as the version sung by Music/GaelicStorm, he blames the monarchs off ''all'' the nations of the wars he was involved in (and the British in particular) for the loss of his legs.
104	--> ''The foreign wars I'll now denounce\
105	'Twixt the King of England and the King of France,\
106	I'd rather my legs where they used to be\
107	Than be King of Spain with his whole navy.''
108	[[/folder]]
109
110	[[folder:Radio]]
111	* Parodied in ''Radio/BleakExpectations'', where Admiral Hardthrasher has a wooden leg -- and another wooden leg, two wooden arms, several wooden ribs, a wooden kidney, wooden hair...
112	[[/folder]]
113
114	[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
115	* ''TabletopGame/DiscworldRoleplayingGame'': The main illustration for the Brown Islands setting (which is about one-third [[NotSoSafeHarbor pirate settlement]] to two-thirds pirate-themed tourist trap) shows an [[JapaneseTourist Agatean tourist]] taking an iconograph of a pirate captain with a peg-leg. From the angle the reader is seeing the scene, the rest of his leg, tucked behind the peg, is clearly visible.
116	* ''TabletopGame/{{Pathfinder}}'': "Peg Leg" is a selectable character [[SkillScoresAndPerks Trait]] in the pirate-themed ''Skulls & Shackles'' campaign. A PC who takes it has had his leg chewed off by a shark as a child, but they suffer no normal penalties for using a prosthetic and instead gain a bonus on damage rolls against sharks and other aquatic predators.
117	* ''TabletopGame/WarhammerFantasy'':
118	** The Dwarf pirate Long Drong wears a peg leg as a result of having lost the original limb to a sea drake.
119	** ''TabletopGame/{{Dreadfleet}}'': In the background material, the pirate captain Aranessa Saltspite amputated her mermaid-like legs and replaced them with a pair of peg legs she carved herself from the blades of swordfish so that she could walk on land, and avoid the stigma of being a mutant.
120	[[/folder]]
121
122	[[folder:Theatre]]
123	* One of the plays in ''Four Plays for [[BadBadActing Coarse Actors]]'' by Michael Green is ''Moby Dick''. HilarityEnsues when an actor with two legs tries to portray the one-legged Captain Ahab. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8oNCuaIqUA See this 2009 production]] from Milton District High School Theatre.
124	[[/folder]]
125
126	[[folder:Toys]]
127	* ''Franchise/{{LEGO}}'': The ''Toys/LEGOPirates'' line has [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:DFRLego_003.jpg Captain Redbeard]], whose right leg is designed to look like a wooden stump.
128	* Sharx and Skulzy, both members of the Pyrratz tribe in ''WesternAnimation/{{Mixels}}'' sport a peg leg. Skulzy's is a standard-looking one, while Sharx's is a barrel, which he stores things in.
129	* The ToylineExclusiveCharacter Thundertron from ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' is a robotic Star Seeker pirate captain who sports a peg-leg in robot mode.
130	[[/folder]]
131
132	[[folder:Video Games]]
133	* ''[[VideoGame/SixtyFourthStreetADetectiveStory 64th Street: A Detective Story]]'' have pirate enemies, as well as the second boss, with peg-legs coming at you. They can actually use their pegs to [[SpinAttack spin around and attack]].
134	* ''VideoGame/AloneInTheDark2'': Shorty Leg lost one of his legs to the recoil from two cannons he fired. Notable because his peg leg is the first hint the enemies you're fighting, who up to that moment look like mere 1920s gangsters (even if their skin colour just looks weird), are more than they seem.
135	* In ''VideoGame/CaptainMorganeAndTheGoldenTurtle'', Morgane's childhood home has a rack of them, left from prominent pirate ancestors. She doesn't have one herself, although Simpkins, one of the villains, does.
136	* ''VideoGame/CookieRun'': Pirate Cookie has one along with a HookHand and an eyepatch. In 2020 it was revealed on the developers' official Website/YouTube channel that he lost it when he walked off his ship and fell into the ocean and was then rescued by Sorbet Shark Cookie. His relationship chart even mentions this when looking at the one for Sorbet Shark Cookie.
137	-->'''Pirate Cookie:''' Thanks fer savin me, but... me leg!
138	* ''VideoGame/{{Cuphead}}'': Captain Brineybeard has two peg legs.
139	* ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry2DiddysKongQuest'': The basic Kremling enemies have peg legs, fitting the general pirate motif of the game. Some even had two peg legs, meaning they could only move by leaping.
140	* [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Woodlegs]], the playable pirate character from ''VideoGame/DontStarve''.
141	* ''VideoGame/IttleDew'': Itan Carver is an [[ExaggeratedTrope extreme example]], with two peg legs, one peg ''hand'', and one {{hook\|Hand}}.
142	* ''VideoGame/MonkeyIsland'': Several characters have these. Most of them pirates.
143	* ''VideoGame/MoshiMonsters'':
144	** Mr Mushy Peas, one of the Ghost Pirates, has a peg leg.
145	** Exaggerated for Octopeg, an octopus with most of his tentacles being replaced with peg legs.
146	* ''VideoGame/PokemonUranium'': The GhostPirate Pokémon Skelerogue's right leg ends in a bony peg. This is lost when it evolves into Navighast and its legs turn into FogFeet.
147	* ''VideoGame/PirateHunter'', where you spend the entire game fighting hostile pirates, have a few enemy mooks bearing peg-legs as well.
148	* In ''VideoGame/PuzzlePirates'', if your ship is sunk in battle, there's a certain probability that you'll end up with a peg leg.
149	* In ''VideoGame/{{Rimworld}}'', if a colonist has to have a leg amputated (from being infected or simply mangled after a battle), in lieu of more advanced prosthetics you can simply fashion a peg leg from a single piece of wood and attach it on. It's better than nothing.
150	* ''VideoGame/ShadowGambitTheCursedCrew'': A few wooden legs can be seen among the pirate crew, such as on Toya and Theresa.
151	%%* ''VideoGame/Sly3HonorAmongThieves'': Captain [=LeFwee=], who is also a literal PirateParrot.
152	* ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2''. The Bootlegger, a primary item for the Demoman, includes a peg leg. It's a reskin of Ali Baba's Wee Booties, which bizarrely means having a pegleg ''[[ImprobableAccessoryEffect increases]]'' the Demoman's mobility while charging.
153	[[/folder]]
154
155	[[folder:Web Animation]]
156	* Russell, the pirate sea otter from ''WebAnimation/HappyTreeFriends'' has all the features of a typical pirate, including two peg legs.
157	* ''WebAnimation/Plan3'': The cursed pirate has a peg leg where his right foot would be. When he trips & dies, he actually trips over with his good foot.
158	[[/folder]]
159
160	[[folder:Web Video]]
161	* ''WebVideo/SevenSecondRiddles'': A pirate, as well as his PirateParrot, both have peg-legs. He uses his peg-leg to stop a leaking boat.
162	[[/folder]]
163
164	[[folder:Webcomics]]
165	* In ''Webcomic/TheAdventuresOfDrMcNinja'', as the Doc [[http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/2p30/ gleefully slaughters a pirate ship]], he proclaims, "Oooh, sorry. You're going to need a second peg leg. Woaah! And you're going to need a peg ''face!'' Haha! ''Peg faces for everyone!''" The next chapter has a CallBack when some of the same pirates reappear--and do have peg faces.
166	* Parodied in ''Webcomic/CyanideAndHappiness'' where the PirateParrot has a [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/1427/ peg wing]].
167	* Played straight in ''Webcomic/{{Exiern}}'' as Peggy is [[http://archive.exiern.com/comic/a-brew-that-is-true/ The SeaCleaver's cook]], and very proud of his cooking, claiming to be famous for it.
168	[[/folder]]
169
170	[[folder:Western Animation]]
171	* Recurring Disney villain WesternAnimation/{{Pete}} had one at the time of ''WesternAnimation/AliceComedies'' (where he played the role of a pirate once), but it was later removed from his design. Apparently the animators were having a hard time keeping the peg leg consistent. He still gets one when typecast in a pirate role in more recent works, however.
172	* Captain Pablo in ''WesternAnimation/TheBackyardigans'' episode "Pirate Treasure". [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome It makes it hard for him to walk quickly.]]
173	* The ''WesternAnimation/BumpInTheNight'' episode "Journey to the Center of the Lungfish" features a pirate named Captain Jetlag, who true to form has a peg leg.
174	* Captain Stickybeard from ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'' has a peg leg made out of ''candy cane''.
175	* ''WesternAnimation/CowAndChicken''. Whenever Red Guy poses as a pirate -- such as Cap'n Butz Pirate -- he will often tape his feet to his butt and attach peg legs to his knees; however, in "Lawnmower Chicken," he actually had peg legs, despite just being a grumpy old neighbor.
176	* Just like the game, Captain Brineybeard in ''WesternAnimation/TheCupheadShow'' has a pair of peg legs; here, he gets them after Mugman accidentally breaks off his original legs while carrying him [[TakenForGranite as a frozen statue]]. When he breaks free of Cala Maria's stone gaze, Brineybeard thanks Mugman for giving him two peg legs since most pirates only have one.
177	* The episode "Ocean Commotion" from ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'' featured yet another Ahab {{Expy}}, with a peg leg and exaggerated [[TalkLikeAPirate pirate speak]].
178	* Subverted in ''WesternAnimation/DragonTales'', where SkyPirate Captain Scallywag simply ''looks'' like he has one because he wears a telescope on his leg. Somehow.
179	* ''WesternAnimation/EekTheCat'': In the episode "The Whining Pirates of Tortuga," one of the titular pirates has two peg legs and a peg head.
180	* Parodied with the character of Seamus from ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy''. He's a fisherman with a typical pirate getup who has pegs replacing ''all'' his limbs, including his arms. One episode even shows him with a wooden torso.
181	-->'''Peter:''' How are you alive?\
182	'''Seamus:''' Me mother was a tree.
183	* Captain Kidd steals "The Goose That Laid The Golden Egg" in the 1936 ''WesternAnimation/FelixTheCat'' cartoon. He duels ably with Felix at first, until his peg gets stuck in a knothole on the pirate ship's deck.
184	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'': SpacePirates are featured in the episode [[Recap/FuturamaS3E20Godfellas "Godfellas"]]. Their captain is a four-legged alien dressed in [[DressedToPlunder typical pirate attire]], including peg legs for three of his legs.
185	* Also parodied in ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy'' episode "Billy Ocean" with a Captain Ahab {{Expy}} named Captain Deadwood who had replaced his ''entire body'' expect for his pinky with wood. He later loses said pinky to a seagull dwelling in a hole in his head.
186	* Captain K'nuckles from ''WesternAnimation/TheMarvelousMisadventuresOfFlapjack'' has wooden legs, wooden hands, and a wooden [[InsistentTerminology 'sittin' muscle' (buttocks)]]. He can walk normally (and if it's worse it's because he's out of shape), and his hands have individual fingers that inexplicably move like regular ones.
187	* The pirate captain from ''WesternAnimation/MikeLuAndOg'' has two wooden legs.
188	* The ''WesternAnimation/RandomCartoons'' short "[=MooBeard=] the Cow Pirate" depicts the titular character as having two peg legs.
189	* ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife''. In "Fish n Chumps", former pirate-turned-local mariner Crappy Jack not only had wooden legs, but also wooden arms, and ''[[EyeScream wooden eyes]]''!
190	* ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'':
191	** Patchy the Pirate has a peg leg to complete the typical pirate archetype.

199	[[folder:Real Life]]
200	* Cornelis Jol who, despite being an admiral of the Dutch West India Company, acted more like a corsair who targeted Spanish and Portuguese ships during the Eighty Years' War between Spain and the Dutch Republic. He was nicknamed ''Houtebeen'' ("pegleg") because he lost a leg in battle.
201	* François Le Clerc, the French corsair who led the first French privateering fleet to the New World and in 1553-1554 sacked several Spanish ports in the Caribbean, was nicknamed ''Jambe de Bois'' ('Wooden Leg', i.e. Peg Leg) after he had lost a leg in a sea-fight with the English at Guernsey in 1549.
