A report on the ledgendary sea monster Charybdis of greek mythology and homer's "Odyssey"

Charybdis was a sea monster who would suck down the waters in the Messina Strait three times per day creating a giant whirlpool and then spit it up again. Whoever was unfortunate enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time when Charybdis sucked down the water wouldn't be there for much longer. If they tried to go around this fate they would be caught in the mouth of another monster that had …

…whirlpool, or Scylla, who would eat some of your crew. In Homer's book "The Odyssey", when Odysseus tries to cross the Messina Strait with the cattle of Helius, He is first met by Scylla and each of her six heads. In an attempt to avoid her again, he travels too far towards the other side on the return voyage and is sucked into Charybdis's whirlpool, and the ship was destroyed along with his entire crew.
