Detailed explanation-1: -With this advantage, Lapulapu’s troops finally overwhelmed and killed Magellan. Pigafetta and a few others managed to escape. According to Pigafetta, several of Magellan’s men were killed in battle, and a number of native converts to Catholicism who had come to their aid were immediately killed by the warriors.
Detailed explanation-2: -Because Magellan wanted to show off his army’s European armour, he asked Humabon’s warriors (a gift to the explorer) to stay on the ship. Pigafetta writes that Lapu-Lapu and his army aimed their fire-hardened bamboo spears and poisoned arrows at the legs of their enemies – killing Magellan.
Detailed explanation-3: -On April 27, 1521, Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan was killed by a poison arrow during a skirmish on the island of Mactan in what is now the Philippines. Magellan and his crew were assisting a local king they had allied with when they landed on the island of Cebu weeks earlier.
