What is your definition of a “hero”? Is there anyone in particular you consider to be a hero?
Question by Catherine: What is your definition of a “hero”? Is there anyone in particular you consider to be a hero?
We live in a world where you see celebrities and sports stars being paid millions and then going and getting into random drug and sex scandals and making us all step back and rethink the way we see these people.
So I’m just curious to see who you see as someone you want to look up to, your “hero”, or just what you think a hero is.

Answer by 5FootGiant
I always saw Batman as my hero, because unlike celebrities, he didn’t let the fame go to his head.
I chose batman because he didn’t abuse ladies
-he didn’t want to be famous for saving people
-he didn’t brag about his accomplishments (not even about being rich)
and he’s downright awesome
Today’s “heroes” are nothing but people put on pedestals they either try to make higher or try to get off. They become unreasonable, thinking they’re the “shit” and start doing things they know that they’re not supposed to be doing, because they think they can.
