Fun Fact: There is another version of the myth where Daedalus didn't kill his nephew. In this version, his nephew was actually his apprentice and they were both praised in Athens. However, Daedalus' nephew died falling off Acropolis, where he had gone with his uncle to work, by accident and Daedalus was devastated. The Athenians without knowing what actually happened blamed Daedalus for his nephew's death and thus they exiled him to Crete. So in this version, Daedalus is not only not malicious, but even more of a tragic figure since he experiences the death of his beloved apprentices twice in exchange of his skill and freedom. The more you know!

Welcome to fiction.

In the original telling of the myth by Ovid, the Latin actually refers to the fact that Daedalus wasn't really watching his son fly and wasn't even worried about him. He was watching the wings that Icarus was wearing and marveling at his own genius. (Also sidenote: In the Latin, it's hard to judge how old Icarus is. It's possible that he was as young as 7 or 8 when his dad entrusted him with this immense responsibility.)

Daedalus: I am a genius inventor Also Daedalus: no night flights

Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears Looks the old man in the eye As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd "In the name of God my father, I fly!" His eyes seem so glazed As he flies on the wings of a dream Now he knows his father betrayed Now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave Fly on your way like an eagle Fly as high as the sun On your way, like an eagle Fly, touch the sun

I love the narrator's voice. When I read my text books for my college courses I use his voice in my mind the read the text. It makes the concepts easier to understand :) I'm not sure why but it works! I love this channel and love watch it grow!!!

Please please do some videos on Indian mythology too! There are a plethora to pick from and it would be really helpful! And amazing to watch from Ted-Ed as usual!

6 year old kids: *Ayo is that an elytra?*

People take this story too literally, it is about not aiming to low in life (flying low, near water) so that a persons mindset does not become increasingly self-disappointed (wings dampening due to flying low), and at such a low state that they can not climb again (wings to heavy), but also not flying to high that when you fail you feel crushed (flying to high - wings melt) and putting you in the water (wings disintegrating = fall into water), the aim is to 'fly' through life at just the right 'height' so you may successfully make it too the other side. Just my 2 cents.

FirinMaLazaaar Yeah, but according to stories back then, moonlight was pretty bright. Bright enough for you to walk out at night, the only possible reasons they wouldn't have went out would be because it was constantly raining, snowing, or some other type of weather messing with the wings. Or because they would've been too tired to fly at night.

/Icarus gamemode s

a lot of people see icarus's story as a cautionary one, one that warns you about being consumed by ego but i like to think of it more as a story of passion. here's a poem about it that i found I am Icarus Many people see my death as a tragedy That is very wrong In my opinion, they did not tell you when Apollo gave me wings They did not tell you I knew I would burn in flames I knew, you see I knew the agony I would face And as I fell, I knew I did it for the sun As hot burning wax slithered down my spine, as seductive kisses of agony peppered my skin and muscle I laughed I laughed as where I saw beauty others saw pain I loved it you see, it was addictive And even Dionysus would marvel at my insanity There is no beauty without pain And now as I wait for judgment in the land of Hades I ask myself, was it worth the fall for the sun? And I answer yes Yes it was

3:30 just fly at night, now there's no sun and you have more leeway to fly a little farther from the ocean

Every time I hear this myth I imagine Icarus as pit from Kid Icarus

I had this myth and the myth about minotaur and a prince who had to navigate through the labyrinth back in my elementary school English text books. Ah the good old days.😊

For any Tolkien fans out there I just had a little epiphany about Gandalf. When he was imprisoned on top of the tower of Orthanc he escaped with the help of the eagles. Does anyone else think this is symbolic of Gandalf's angelic characteristics or is this just a coincidence. My thoughts are that maybe Tolkien got inspiration from the story of Icarus and Daedalus.

@FinaleCadence

7 жыл бұрын

George Frangoudes I think it might be a coincidence. Gandolf didn't distort the world around him (build fake wake wings) he merely called upon the Eagles for help. I think it says a great deal that the eagles were willing to help Gandolf, as opposed to Gandolf taking their feathers to make wings.

I know Tolkien was mostly inspired by Anglo-Saxon stories, and part of Lord of The Rings was to show that their elements were not inferior to the Greek stories.

@snowwonder9814

Maybe... but Tolkien was big fan of other mythologies, so maybe not. Gandalf's appearance and his wandering for instance were in part inspired by depictions of Odin, from Norse myth, and his name comes from Norse myth too. ;) Gandalf is literally an angel in Middle Earth though so that's right on point.

The Rohirrim too were inspired by the vikings. Look at their helmets and weapons. Plus the speeches given by the king was very much like going to Valhalla with death as the main source of motivation,

the way pasiphae even named her son with the bull "minotaur" like his husband "minos" is insane 😭

Rick actually talks about it in Percy Jackson's Greek Gods

I stand on the cliffs with my son next to me This island our prison, our home And everyday we look out at the sea This place is all he's ever known But I've got a plan and some wax and some string; some feathers I stole from the birds We leap from the cliff and we hear the wind sing a song that's too perfect for words But son, please keep a steady wing And know your the only one that means anything to me Steer clear of the sun, or you'll find yourself in the sea Now safely away, I let out a cry "We'll make the mainland by noon" But Icarus climbs higher still in the sky Maybe I've spoken too soon Oh son, please keep a steady wing And know your the only one that means anything to me Steer clear of the sun, or you'll find yourself in the sea Won't you look at your wings They're coming undone They're splitting at the seams Steer clear of the sun, for once won't you listen to me? O, Gods! Why is this happening to me? All I wanted was a new life for my son to grow up free And now you took the only thing that meant anything to me I will never fly again, I will hang up my wings O, Gods! Why is this happening to me? All I wanted was a new life for my son to grow up free And now you took the only thing that meant anything to me I will never fly again, I will hang up my wings! O, Gods!

The rest of Daedalus’ story is actually really weird. He pushes his own nephew off a tower and a god turns his nephew into a bird. The bull was actually a gift from Posiden who wanted the king to sacrifice it to him, but the king kept it instead. And the Minotaur was eventually killed by a guy who got out of the labyrinth with a spool of string.

1. The author wants us to be content with what we have. To be smart and knowledgeable is not enough if we are not content with it. 2. I learned that I should listen to my parents and their warnings because they want the best for us. Just like how Daedalus warned Icarus but when Icarus didn't listen something bad happened. 3. I would recommend this work in my younger brother for he doesn't listen to anything my mother was telling him that's why he encountered many accidents at such a young age.
