In Greek mythology who were Pegasus and Bellerophon?

Pegasus was the winged horse that sprouted from Medusa's neck after Perseus slew her. Bellerophon was a man who dreamed of riding Pegasus, and Athena gave him a bridle, which, if he put it on Pegasus, would let him tame the horse. He did so and went to slay the chimera, becoming a hero. But Bellerophon became overconfident and thought that he should be able to sit with the gods on Olympus. However, no mortal was meant to step foot on Olympus, so Pegasus, knowing this, threw him off and flew away. Bellerophon was blinded and wandered around as a beggar for the rest of his days, dying alone.
