This one reminds me of the story of Icarus, the son of the remarkable craftsman who attempted to escape from Crete, created a pair of wings with his father to fly away from the prison that is holding them captive. He was warned by his father not to fly too high or else the wings will be burned in the strong glare of the sun. Once they took off, Icarus was too excited not to notice that he flew too high. Before his father could warn him, Icarus's wings were burnt in the blink of an eye, and he fell to his death.
It sucks though, how this story to inspire the modern people to invent a metal wing so that the wings won't get burnt. Through the death of others, only we will find a new idea. Sorry for my sick deductions. What's your interpretations?
