I'm not really inspired much as I don't have many aspirations, but there are people who I look at and think they are just cool, made our planet cooler just by being there. I'll be honest I only recognize maybe 4 names on your list Ekuma lol
David Bowie - great musician and actor, one of the people I know I'll never be able to be as cool as. Mel Gibson - greatest actor ever could turn any role into something awesome. Tupac Shakur - not a fan of rap but there was something very special about him, he was something different. Art Bell - what a real treasure, his shows brought us to places we'd never find, was a literal bank of knowledge. Patrick Stewart - just a class act, memorable, great actor, showed that being serious and by the book can also look cool. Arnold Schwarzenegger - Arnold in the early 90s was probably the coolest figure ever on the planet. Jean Claude Van Damme - just watched Bloodsport the other night, and he still is as cool as I remember. Don Johnson (Miami Vice) Ian Astbury (lead singer The Cult) and maybe throw in George Michael in the 80s-early 90s(insanely creative, possibly the best voice ever, very down to earth)
That's my definition of cool, which I guess you could translate to 'hero', but not really a hero. To me a hero is more like someone who runs a volunteer animal shelter or something along those lines.
