Someone jabs a red hot iron rod at a donkey to make it move. It's seemingly played for laughs because there's a shot of the donkey's pained face.

There is no graphic or direct sexual assault. However, there are some moments that could be considered sexual harassment. For example, Elizabeth being told that if she doesn't wear a certain dress, she will have to dine with the crew while naked.

1) Keira Knightley’s character faints from her corset being too tight and falls into the water off a cliff. She’s then rescued, pulled out of the water, and revived.
2) Keira Knightley’s character is punched unconscious in the later half of the movie.

There is a prolonged scene where a woman has trouble breathing in a tight corset; she faints from lack of oxygen, then immediately nearly drowns when she falls into water. Several characters choke and wheeze when their throats are slit. A man struggles with a noose tightening around his neck.

There is a character, Marty, with a form of dwarfism. When he is introduced as a member of Jack's new crew, Will makes a sarcastic, and potentially rude, comment saying "This is your able-bodied crew?" Granted, he is addressing the whole crew and not just Marty, but it still could be upsetting to some viewers.
