Lapu-Lapu Didn't Kill Magellan? The Real Story (Not the Legend)

Everyone knows Magellan died in the Philippines. Almost no one knows what actually happened on that beach — and the man history credits with killing him may never have touched him. This video tells the story of the Battle of Mactan using only what was documented at the time, mainly the eyewitness journal of Antonio Pigafetta, the one man who was actually there. You'll find out why the battle really happened, why Magellan's own tactics doomed him before the fighting even started, and which parts of the popular legend — the duel, the cannibalism story, even the battle site itself — don't hold up against the historical record.
