74		In Greek mythology, Icarus (/ˈɪkərəs/; Ancient Greek: Ἴκαρος, romanized: Íkaros, pronounced [ǐːkaros]) was the son of the master craftsman Daedalus, the creator of the Labyrinth. Icarus and Daedalus attempt to escape from Crete by means of wings that Daedalus constructed from feathers and wax. Daedalus warns Icarus first of complacency and then of hubris, instructing him to fly neither too low nor too high, lest the sea's dampness clog his wings or the sun's heat melt them. Icarus ignores Daedalus’s instructions not to fly too close to the sun, causing the wax in his wings to melt. He tumbles out of the sky, falls into the sea, and drowns. The myth would later be coined in the idiom, "don't fly too close to the sun".	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icarus#:~:text=In%20Greek%20mythology%2C%20Icarus%20(%2F,the%20creator%20of%20the%20Labyrinth.&text=Icarus%20ignores%20Daedalus's%20instructions%20not,in%20his%20wings%20to%20melt.
