Was he the guy with his parents on Good Morning America?

Magellan was the guy who couldn't get his ship around The Horn in one piece, and in trying to avoid that course, discovered an inland route through the islands of the Tierra del Fuego.

As it turned out, those inland channels also have their dangers, as the rusting carcasses of many foundered ships litter the channels.
