Tantalus was tormented in the afterlife by continuous thirst and hunger. He constantly stood in the middle of a lake which reached his chin, but whenever he tried to take a drink from the lake, it would dry up immediately. The lake was surrounded by many tall fruit tree filled with fruit, but whenever he reached for fruits, a wind would blow, sending the branches out of his reach.
