You forgot to mention that the Hawaiians ate Captain Cook, believing they were ingesting the mana (life force) of the demigod, Lono.

Another fun fact, the HMS Dolphin sailed to Tahiti in 1766, and the boat almost fell apart because the sailors had ripped so many nails out of the hull to trade for sex. Captain Cook prevented this problem in his journeys by bringing extra buckets of pussy nails.
