How about the guy who stood in front of the tanks at Tanieman
square?
Personally, I rarely think of celebrities as heroes. Its what you do,
not who you are.
That is, a hero is someone who significantly sacrafices for others.
Here are some others you may not have heard of:
Lech Walesa
Hugh Thompson Jr.
Nelson Mandela
Todd Beamer
Stanislov Petrov
Name a celebrity that we, as a people, owe more to than Stanislov
Petrov?
Look 'em up!

Mother Teresa comes to mind...she was from a wealthy family and gave it all up to help the poor people. That takes character.

Harriet Tubman. She was an escaped slave herself, suffered from narcolepsy, but still led hundreds of escaped slaves to freedom in the North.

of the top of my head, Bill Gates and Buffett (sorry 2 names). not many ppl would do what they are doing - donating most of their wealth eventually.
