1. Perseus killed Medusa the Gorgon and took her head, which turned everyone who looked on it to stone. Passing along the coast, he found the beautiful Andromeda chained to a rock to be devoured by a sea monster. Perseus rushed to help her, but lost his footing on the slippery rocks and dropped the Gorgon's head. Without thinking, he bent down to pick it up and WHOOPS!
2. Jason assembled a crew of heroes to sail in the "Argo" and find the Golden Fleece. Unfortunately the ship met rough waters in the Dardanelles, and sank.
3. Theseus made his way through the labyrinth to fight the Minotaur, clutching in his hand the thread given him by Ariadne to enable him to find his way back. It is believed that he killed the monster, but in the struggle he must have let go of the thread, because he's not been seen since. Maybe he's still down there?
