Demon King Bali became so powerful that he defeated the Devas and controlled Heaven and Earth. When the dwarf Vamana came to his court, and asked for 3 paces of land, he laughed. But then the dwarf grew big enough to step over mountains and straddle worlds. Bali had to offer his own head to fulfill his promise. He learned his lesson about arrogance.
