On his initial visit to Hawaii shores, Captain Cook and his crew were accepted as a Gods. However, they wore out their welcome and started losing their status when one of the crew members died. On sailing out and encountering stormy weather which forced them to return, the Hawaiians saw them as mere mortals who plundered them. The enraged Hawaiians attacked Captain Cook and his team as a mob, thus killing Captain Cook.
