In Greek mythology, Icarus was the son of the master craftsman Daedalus, the architect of the labyrinth of Crete. After Theseus, king of Athens and enemy of Minos escaped from the maze, King Minos suspected that Icarus and Daedalus had revealed the labyrinth's secrets and imprisoned them. Icarus and Daedalus escaped using wings Daedalus constructed from feathers, threads from blankets, clothes, and beeswax. Daedalus warned Icarus to fly neither too low nor too high, lest the sea's dampness clogs his wings or the sun's heat melt them. Icarus ignored Daedalusโ€™ instructions not to fly too close to the sun, causing the beeswax in his wings to melt. Icarus fell from the sky, plunged into the sea, and drowned. The myth gave rise to the idiom, "Fly too close to the sun."


The story of Icarus was repeatedly told by Greek and Roman poets as a reminder of the penalty of being high-spirited. Including the dangers caused by human hubris. It's a moral saying that even the most ambitious plans can go wrong. or Negligence and insufficient experience can also be damaging.
