Daedalus created wings made from feathers for him and his son Icarus. They flew off to escape the prison. Daedalus warned Icarus that if he flew to high, the seal that he used to keep the feathers together would melt and he would fall, but he forgot his father's warning after he got the thrill of flying. Icarus flew to high and just like his father warned, the wings' wax melted and he fell to his death in the ocean. Daedalus thought the death of his son was a result of defying the god's imprisonment so he took off his wings and never used them again; living alone with the loss of his son.

Dedalus and Icharus escaped by flying on wings built from feathers and candle wax. As the story goes, Icharus snubbed his father's advice and flew to close to the sun. The sun's heat melted the wax used to hold the feathers in place, and Icharus's wings fell apart; he fell into the sea and died.
with the hand made wings that daedalus created he gathered a store of feathers great and small. He fastened these together with thread, moulded them in with wax, and so fashioned two great wings like those of a bird.
Daedalus was collecting one feather from each bird and Daedalus waxed them together to make two pairs of life sized wings for Daedalus and his son to fly out of the "high prison tower"

Wings that Daedalus built.
In the myth of Daedalus and Icarus, the characters are Daedalus, an ingenious craftsman and inventor, and his son Icarus. They are imprisoned on the island of Crete and Daedalus creates wings made of feathers and wax for them to escape. Icarus flies too close to the sun, the wax on his wings melts, and he falls into the sea and drowns.
Daedalus is the father of Icaurs. Icarus in Greek mythology was to escape the Crete by the means of wings his father Daedalus created with feathers and wax.
It wasn't it a mythical creature it was a human. Daedalus's son was too cocky and flew too close to the sun. The sun melted the glue on his feathers and he crashed into the sea. (Daedalus specifically told his son not to fly too high or too low. Look where that got him.) {Daedalus was trying to escape prison}
Daedalus and Icarus were characters of Greek Mythology. Daedalus was the creator of the Labyrinth. Icarus was his son. Minos, King of Crete, captured both Daedalus and Icarus in the Labyrinth. Daedalus invented some bronze wings in the prison to help him and his son escape. They escaped successfully, but Icarus, ignoring his father's warnings, swooped low, touching the sea. So he drowned. Daedalus didn't die, but he lived missing his son every second from then on.
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.

Daedalus and Icarus escape from evil king with wings made of wax and feathers. Daedalus tells icarus not to fly to high because the sun will melt the wax. He doesn't listen and flys high and the sun melts the wax and he drowns. Daedalus survives
*Daedalus Daedalus was a genius. He was the creator of The Labyrinth, which King Minos ordered him to make so he would have somewhere to protect his treasures and keep the Minotaur. After the Labyrinth was complete, King Minos wouldn't let Daedalus leave his island kingdom to ensure that the secret of the Labyrinth was kept a secret. Icarus was Daedalus and his wife, Nausicrates' son, whom he had brought with him. In order to escape the island, Daedalus created wings made form feathers and was for him and his son. Unfortunately, Icarus flew too close to the sun and his wax melted, causing him to fall to his death in the sea.
In order to escape the labyrinth Daedalus had built and then been locked in by King Minos, he built wings for himself and his son Icarus. Their escape plan began as a success but as they were flying over the sea, Icarus' wings started to fall apart and he fell into the sea and drowned.
Daedalus was the inventor of the labyrinth, and was trapped there too. Him and his son, Icarus, escaped, but only reached the edge of the island. To go over the water, Daedalus built wax wings, which he and Icarus would use to fly over the sea. Daedalus told Icarus not to fly to close to the sun, or his wings would melt. Icarus didn't listen, and ended up plummeting into the Iccarian Sea.
