Mr. T.'s fear of flying stems from the Greek myth of Icarus, who flew too close to the sun, thus melting his wax wings. On an unavoidable flight to Los Angeles, Mr. T. hijacked the plane, flew it directly into the sun, and proceeded to beat the sun into submission. The sun cried out in pain to which Mr. T. replied, "Stop that jibba-jabba!" Afterwards he relaxed with a cold glass of milk while he perused the classifieds, looking for work.
