Who was the first person person to circumnavigate the world?
History books would tell us that that guy was Ferdinand Magellan. However, Ferdinand Magellan was killed in the island of Mactan by an army led by Lapu-Lapu before he completes his way back to Spain. This simply proves that Magellan was not the first guy to circumnavigate the world.
So, who was really the first person to circumnavigate the world?

18 members of the crew did it, but the title goes to...Spaniard Juan Sebastián Elcano, who took over command of the expedition after Magellan's death.

this is not any longer conceivable. look at a international map and you will discern it out. There seems some unique state of a hydrogen-oxygen compound, mentioned as 'dihydrogen oxide' that seems to hide assorted the earth. this is been pronounced that this merchandise suffocates people traped interior it. So jogging by way of this liquid could practice complicated for persons. perchance if 2 or 3 km long stilts are invented, then jogging around the earth could be conceivable.

Jean LaPerouse (1741-1788?) who went on a long and successful journery around most of the world but also didn't quite make it back to his source of origin... wreckage of 2 ships of his were found. And he wasn't.
but that's what comes up when I put "around the world" in my search engine; it wouldn't take circumnavigate.

I guess it would be Magellan's crew, then, who sadly got none of the credit.
