Icarus
The expression "who flew too close to the sun" refers to someone who overreaches or takes excessive risks, often leading to their downfall. It originates from the Greek myth of Icarus, who ignored warnings and flew too high with wings made of wax, causing them to melt when exposed to the sun. The phrase serves as a cautionary reminder about the dangers of hubris and the consequences of ignoring one's limitations.
The mythological figure who flew too close to the sun is Icarus. He was the son of Daedalus, a skilled craftsman who constructed wings made of feathers and wax for them to escape from Crete. Ignoring his father's warnings, Icarus flew higher and closer to the sun, causing the wax in his wings to melt, which led to his tragic fall into the sea. This myth serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of hubris and overambition.
