Achilles
Paris shot an arrow at him and Apollo guided it to hit Achilles at his only vulnerable spot, the heel.
Thetis dipped Achilles in the waters of the River Styx, by which means he became invulnerable, except for the part of his heel by which she held him-the proverbial "Achilles' heel."
Achilles died when his enemy shot a poisoned arrow into his heel. Achilles' heel was the only part of his body that was vulnerable; as a baby, he had been dipped into the River Styx by his mother, who held onto him by his ankle. Achilles' immersion made him impervious to harm, but because his ankle did not contact the river, it remained mortal and vulnerable. The idiom "Achilles' heel" has come to mean a fatal flaw, a chink in one's armor.
His heel. And the way he treated other men, women and boys, he was a heel.

The Achilles tendon, in the heel. It is named for Achilles because it was the only point on his body that was vulnerable to damage.
It was not Thetis's heel that was vulnerable but that of her mortal son Achilles, this may have come about because she was called Argyropeza (silver-footed).
