Best Answer

Icarus was Daedalus's son in Greek Mythology when Daedalus was locked in the tower with one window and a locked door. Daedalus saw birds flying around the tower and said to Icarus: "King Minos(That was the king who locked them in the tower) might control the land and sea but not the air." So he crafted two sets of bird wings from the birds' feathers that were flying around the tower and beeswax. Before they took off Daedalus said to Icarus "Don't get to close to the sun or the wax will melt and don't get to close to the sea or the wax will not stick to the feathers and the feathers will fall off." They both escaped and went overseas and King Minos couldn't do anything to stop them. While overseas Icarus got cocky and went against his father's orders and flew close to the sun and flew close to the sea. When he flew over the sea his feathers fell off and he was plunged into the sea, drowning.
