    So I've met the only 2 living heroes I have(Neil Strauss is more of a mentor), Fedor Emelianenko and Randy Couture. Kinda interesting. Have any of you met any of your heroes and if so have they impacted your life in anyway? I met Randy almost a year ago and he motivated me to strive for what I want. Fedor on the other hand, I was kinda intimidated by his presence.

    I don't really have any real heroes, I have people who have inspired me, they are all dead and have been for a long, long time.. I have real human people I know in life who inspire me...
    there is one who has inspired me a lot and would love to meet them...Hopefully one day...

    glad you got to meet people who mean something to you...that's always nice...

    I've meet Benny the Jet, and Norman Borlaug.

    I also played lazer tag with Dennis Quaid. He is very much, not a hero of mine. But seemed like a decent guy, and honestly, much better than I at 'tag.

    I don't think I've got heroes. Living heroes anyway.

    Which probably isn't a good thing.

    I met a bunch of celebrities and stuff. But I guess they are not heroes because I tend to forget that I met them!

    Like, Samuel Jackson. I met the dude.

    Q-Tip, I see him every couple weeks at this night club. Bah!

    Had I met Camus, I would say I met a hero and gone about my business. :biggrin:

    Neil Strauss is your hero? You must have a double digit IQ...and you are probably a virgin too.
