exercise

In ancient times, Minos, the king of Crete,invited the famous Athenian architect Daedalus to build a labyrinth for him.
When the labyrinth was ready, King Minosjailed Daedalus and his son Icarus in the labyrinth because he wanted to have this great architect in his island forever.
Daedalus thought that the only way to escape was to fly out of prison. He made two sets of wax wings, one for himself and one for Icarus, and so, they flew away.
Daedalus told Icarus “Don’t fly too close to the sun. The sun melts the wax.” Icarus did not remember his father’s advice and flew higher and higher until his wax wings started to melt. He moved his arms faster and faster.
The fast movement of arms did not helpmuch and Icarus fell into the deep sea.
His father flew over the place where Icarus fell. Daedalus looked hard but he could not find his son. He named the sea “Icarian Sea” after his son’s name.
Of course this is a myth but it is the first flight accident
