Icarus was the son of Daedalus. He was best known for attempting to escape with his father, who had fashioned them wings. Daedalus warned Icarus not to fly too close to the sun, but in his excitement, Icarus did. The sun melted the wax attaching the wings to his back, and Icarus fell to his death. Now, the sea in which he fell into is called the Icarian sea.
He didn't, which is why the wax melted off them and they fell apart, causing Icarus to fall to his death.

Daedalus and Icarus' plan failed, because wax was joining wings to their backs, and Icarus flew too close to the sun, causing the wax to melt and him to fall to his death.
