Lots of things happened to Leif when he was exploring! His ship was not as maneuverable as the ships of today, plus, he did not have charts for most of the areas he was exploring, so he did run aground every now and then. He also had to rest at anchor to ride out lots of storms and bad weather. Oh yeah- he created a settlement in North America about 500 years before that dude named Chris Somebody-Or-Other (Christopher Columbus). Other (less-experienced) sailors were not always so fortunate. After finding and rescuing 14 people stranded near Greenland, he began to be called Leif the Lucky.
