There are a lot of things people might have portray pirates like in films or just in some shows. They portrayed the pirates as guys who bury their treasure to hide from others, they have a pirate slang like saying "ARRRRRRR" or "Mateys" and made their victims walked the plank. Some films such as pirates of the caribbean or Peter pan or the goonies.
The goonies portray it a little bit by showing a group of kids finding a treasure map that was hidden by a pirate and they went ahead to find the treasure. Peter pan as well with Captain Hook the villain of the film and he always says to some kids or peter pan that he will make them walk the plank.
Those are myths of pirates because pirates do not really say arrrrrrr or matey. There are some pirates like british pirates who talk in a different way than this. The myth of pirates buried treasure is not true either. The Pirates knew they were not going to live long due to what they were doing so when ever they got treasure they always spend all of the treasure either on liquor or females. The last myth was that pirates make their victims walk the plank. This is also not true because there is not a lot of evidence that pirates made their victims walk the plank. Instead what pirates did to their victims was Knee Hauling which was when they tie the victim to a rope and dragging them under the ship. That will either give the victims horrible injuries or may just drown them because they are under water. These are some myths that films have showed about pirates and these myths were not true at all whats so ever because they do not know that much about pirates.
