To those of you that are going to say "Columbus, dumbass", you're wrong.

Ferdinand Magellan did.



Columbus, though sailing around the world, only proved that there was land on the other side of the Atlantic. Magellan had sail around the world around five hundred years before.


If your history teacher told you "Columbus", tell him/her to look up 'Ferdinand Magellan'.

No one thought Columbus proved it. He knew the earth was round already, and tried to sail around the Earth to find India.

@DeathKid
Go to Yahoo! Answered and search "Who proved the world was round?"

You'll find at least 5 answers that say "Columbus'. (If you check more questions about it, you'll find more)

That's a few people who thought Columbus proved it, are they not?
