I forgot what exactly happened, but i think back when he was blessed, they put his whole body into the water and held him by his ankles. So his ankles were the only part of his body that never touched.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

when his mother thetis dipped him into the river styx she held him by the heel so therefore he was only vulnerable in the heel!
