So? Whose yours?

Mr. T. I pity the fool who don’t like Mr. T!!!

I don't need your pity!

Well mine was Dale Earnhardt..... I guess now my hero is Willy from the Simpsons.

Gilligan. He was the greatest!!!

I don't think I have a hero.

I guess the closest I have to a hero would be either Stephen Hawking or Rogue...*notices that her two most likely heros consist of a renowned physicist and a comic book character*...possibly Drizzt...*adds a character from a book to the list of possible heros*...

MY DADDY IS MY HERO!!!!!!!!!!!!! aww just kiding my hero is that guy in the simpsons that took a bullet for someone after the person got shot 10 times already ya know the episode where homer recks mr. burns' yot

My hero is none other than: Billy Connolly.

The other would of course be Jim Carey.

A couple of comic geniouses in my opinion

I don't really have any heroes, but I think all the people who have risked their lives for human rights, like people who hid Jewish families in Germany during WWII, or the students who participated in the pro-democracy demonstrations at TianAnMen square in China 1989, are true heroes.

Well i pity the fool who don't use 1800-Collect.

Anybody who can quietly live through a longterm tragedy, their own or a loved one's, is a hero: taking care of a husband or wife who has developed Alzeimer's, or terminal cancer, for example.

The diceman...hehe

actually, it's Stevie Ray Vaughn, or Tony Iommi.

Out of the ruins
Out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistake this time
We are the children
the last generation
We are the ones they left behind
And I wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear till nothing else remains

We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome

Looking for something we can rely on
There's got to be something better out there
Love and compassion, their day is coming
All else are castles built in the air
And I wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear till nothing else remains
All the children say

We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome

What do we do with our lives
We leave only a mark
Will our story shine like a life
Or end in the dark
Give it all or nothing

That was beautiful man...

My hero:Ace Rimmer

Seriously i don't have any hero's i don't believe in having heros, i think it is superficial, everyone should be their own hero's.

or the students who participated in the pro-democracy demonstrations at TianAnMen square in China 1989, are true heroes.

Yeah, that was sad. Unfortunately my mother, who was a teacher at one of the universities in Beijing, witnessed the death of one of her students. It was pretty traumatic to hear her tell it.

I think heroes are mysteries. All we hear about them is the things that other people before us tell us. You can't judge those heroes from what you hear, you must know them to know that they are humans too. They make mistakes. They are not the perfect icons that people set them up to be. If we knew that Colombus brought smallpox and owned slaves before, we wouldn't be so shocked today and protesting Colombus Day. The man was acting in the standards of his time period when owning slaves was common and the Caucasian world viewed other races as inferiors. Nonetheless he made an important discovery and should be recognized as one of great importance.

However, one person who everybody else calls hero I totally do not agree is Odysseus. He deliberately killed his men. He was enjoying the stay with Kalypso instead of longing for Ithaca. He knew he was going to survive in the end, so all his accomplishments are hollow. I totally despise him.
