He wished to ride his father Helios' flaming chariot across the sky.
Helios was very reluctant, but finally gave in to his son's demand.
The results were devastating: Phaethon was unable to control
the fiery horses and the chariot caused a panic among the constellations and then came to close to the earth, setting whole lands on fire.
Finally, to prevent even more destruction, Zeus blasted Phaethon
with a thunderbolt.
