And I was thinking Steve Irwin actually. He is much cooler.

I'd go Steve Irwin if he had survived. Bear Grylls would have f*cked that stingray in the ass and made a hunting knife out of it, which he would have then used to single-handedly kill a grizzly bear whilst rapelling down Mt. Everest.

Andrew Jackson... anyone?

Quote:

During the Revolutionary War, 14 year old Andrew Jackson and his older brother Robert were captured by British soldiers in the Battle of Hanging Rock. The officer in command ordered Jackson to clean his boots. Jackson refused. The officer raised his sword to strike a violent blow at the boy's head. Jackson ducked and threw up his left hand. "It was cut to the bone, and a gash on his head left a white scar that Andrew Jackson carried through a long life that profited little to England or any Englishman. Jackson's mother persuaded the British to release her boys, but by this time both had contracted smallpox. Jackson's mother and his critically ill brother rode horseback on the 45 mile journey home. Andrew walked barefoot and without a jacket, despite a driving rain the last day of the trek. Robert died two days later. Andrew was delirious and in mortal danger. Over several months, he slowly recovered. When Andrew seemed out of danger, his mother left to nurse prisoners of war in Charleston, but contracted cholera there and died.

Quote:

In the duel, fought over a horse-racing debt and an insult to his wife on May 30, 1806, Charles Dickinson shot Andrew Jackson in the ribs before Jackson returned the fatal shot; after Jackson's pistol had jammed. Jackson allowed Dickinson to shoot first, knowing him to be an excellent shot, and waited until after his opponent fired the trigger before he did. The bullet that struck Jackson was so close to his heart that it could never be safely removed.

Andrew Jackson was responsible for some of the worst treatment of American Indians in US history. Not very cool.

I've got a couple.

Erich Hartmann (1922-1993) - Luftwaffe

Yes, he was a Nazi. But he was a BAMF nonetheless. "The Black Devil" puts Tom Cruise to shame. He had 352 aerial victories (by far the most of all time), while never receiving any significant damage to his plane from enemy fire. He did have to crash-land 14 times, but it was either due to mechanical failure or parts of enemy planes he had just shot down hitting him. If you can't get past the fact that he was a Nazi, consider that 98% of his victories were against the Soviets.

Imhotep (27th Century BC) - Chancellor of the King of Egypt, Doctor, First in line after the King of Upper Egypt, Administrator of the Great Palace, Hereditary nobleman, High Priest of Heliopolis, Builder, Chief Carpenter, Chief Sculptor, and Maker of Vases in Chief.

The first "Renaissance man", Imhotep isconsidered the first architect, engineer and physician in history. He built the first pyramid and is also the first to ever use columns. He is credited with being the founder of medicine as a discipline and was believed to have written the Edwin Smith Papyrus, which is unique in the fact that it is a medical text that dealt with a rational and scientific approach to treatment rather than a magical or religious approach. Despite refraining from religion on some issues like this, he was one of the few commoners to achieve divine status. What badass.

Ive been on this "Robert Johnson" kick lately so he would be my 1st pick, at the moment.
