The fifth part of the Disney series "Pirates of the Caribbean - Salazar's Revenge" opens in Swiss cinemas on 25 May. We're giving away three fan packages and telling you what you need to be a bit like Jack Sparrow yourself.

In "Pirates of the Caribbean - Salazar's Revenge", the stiff breeze of misfortune blows against down-on-his-luck Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) when deadly sailors from the shadow world, led by the fearsome Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem), escape the Devil's Triangle and know only one goal: To kill every pirate on the open sea, especially Jack. His only chance of survival is the legendary trident of Poseidon. To find it, he must form a less than cosy alliance with the brilliant and beautiful star explorer Carina Smyth (Kaya Scodelario) and the headstrong young Royal Navy sailor Henry (Brenton Thwaites). At the helm of the Dying Gull, his pitifully small and shabby ship, Captain Jack attempts not only to undo his recent spate of misadventures, but to save his own life from the most vicious enemy he's ever faced.

Jack Sparrow by Galaxus

If you ask people today to name a piratesque character, 90% of them will answer Jack Sparrow. The Disney film series "Pirates of the Caribbean" has captivated us for a long time. Jack Sparrow's Caribbean adventures, drinking habits, charm and style continue to win over audiences. You really immerse yourself in the pirate world and never know what to expect. One thing is clear: Jack Sparrow has looked too deeply into his glass at least once in all his appearances, which is characterised by his successful gait and gestures.

We asked ourselves, what does it take to get as close as possible to the likeable Jack Sparrow? A little research shows that we already have a pretty well-covered range for piratesque lovers. But is that enough and how do you become a piratesque character?

To become a pirate in heart and soul, you need to make a few radical changes to your daily habits. Your attitude should change rapidly. Fear is not a concept to you, greed even more so, it's not about each other, it's all about you, your machinations and your wealth. You only give your crew the respect they deserve. After all, you need someone to set your sails correctly when you're at the helm or looking into the distance.

In addition to your character, we also need to pirate your appearance. Stop your daily grooming routine immediately. Let your beard grow, make sure you have smokey eyes and wear a bandana with a sleek triangular hat from now on. This will make your face stand out more. Of course, a face like this should also have the necessary accessories. Earrings, a necklace and matching finger rings round off the bling bling pirate effect.

Now choose which outfit you want to wear to explore the Caribbean. Should it be something with stripes or something more classic? It doesn't really matter, after a few days at sea at the latest, it will probably have the first sweat, food and rum stains on it - as barbaric as it gets. In the event of unexpected enemies or an attack on a British warship, we also recommend that you take plenty of weapons on board.

Be aware that a long journey on the high seas should be well prepared. Make it clear to everyone that you are dangerous. Glowing skull masks can also be frightening at night. A chest for the captured treasures should also never be missing, otherwise the gold coins will fall out of your pocket. To keep your crew entertained, we recommend a pet (preferably a skull monkey), games and plenty of rum. After all, a few days without wind in your sails can be really long. Rum in particular proves extremely useful in such situations, as well as in the event of a mutiny on a desert island.

If you find your way back to your pirate cave afterwards, you should feel really cosy. After all, a pirate cave should reflect your lifestyle. So go for your pirates, even if you like it a bit colourful. After all, there's no accounting for taste.
