Who was your first hero?

[Char]

For me I think it was Yul brynner

probably my earliest memory of someone I thought cool especially in the Westerns

I think my parents must have watched many of his films

For me

 

[Exige]

Me Mummy and Daddy

 

[WAYNE]

For me growing up as a kid in the 70s Evel Knievel was my hero i even had the wind up stunt bike that my fucking asshole of a cousin jumped it into a bog in our nearby woods, it sank! .

And no that's not me!!

Exige beat me too it!! my Dad was and is my hero it's heart breaking at the minute watching him battle cancer for the second time!
