[quote=Anonymous]Interesting how people are claiming to be heroic

To be honest, I don't think it's a bad thing. It might make them more likely to do the heroic thing when it happens if they've anyway imagined themselves doing it beforehand

I've personally done the "heroic" choice a handful of times, including separating women from a threatening man a few times, helping an injured bleeding man and, (the most dangerous one) saving a guy from being attacked by a deranged,drugged out man with a glass bottle for a weapon

I was proud of myself but, just like the PP, took a dumb(?) risk of being stabbed by broken glass

I always thought I would have liked to have been on the train when that guy was killed on the metro, but the truth is I'm not a martial arts expert and probably could have been stabbed and killed myself, especially since it's hard to imagine that i could have motivated strangers to help me.

One thing I remembered seeing online when it comes to the idea of taking on an armed attacker when you're unarmed... Imagine fighting someone with a sharpie pen.. do you think you could get it out of their hands before they make a single mark on your shirt? I don't know[/quote]
