Icarus was imprisoned in the Labyrinth and later flew too close to the sun so his wings melted and he fell in the sea
King Minos of Crete imprisoned Daedalus and Icarus in the Labyrinth to punish Daedalus for helping the hero Theseus to kill the monster.

They escaped using hand-made wings but flew too close to the sun causing the wax with which the wings were made to melt, causing them to fall into the sea.
Got it thank you
