His first fall Hera cast him into Oceanus where Eurynome and Thetis saved him, then Zeus threw him from heaven and he landed on Lemnos.
In one legend, I am not sure of it's origin, Hera threw Hephaestus off of Mount Olympus, because she was so shocked of how ugly he was.Another legend, from Homer's The Iliad suggests that Zues threw Hephaestus off of Mount Olympus when Hephaestus tried to help Hera, against Zeus's wishes.
Hera threw him off stuff
Hera threw Hephaestus off the Mount Olympus because he wasn't as good looking as their other children. Since he was still a god he didn't die but instead became somewhat crippled.
Hephaestus didn't leave Mount Olympus, his mother, Hera, was so ashamed by his ungodly looks that she threw him straight off of Mount Olympus. When Athena was born from Zeus' mind, Hera's jealousy got the better of her. She thought that, if Zeus could make a child just by brains, so could she. The result was Hephaestus, who is told to be the ugliest god there ever was on Mount Olympus.
Because the other gods all thought he was ugly

He was born lame, which caused him to limp. So his mother threw him off of Mount Olympics.
lol It's Hephaestus
I believe that Hephaestus is the son of Zeus and Hera who was crippled so Hera threw him off Mount Olympus which probably did not help. It was Tantalus, not Hephaestus
