Anyone involved in the emergency services who go above and beyond the call of duty to help others who really need it, volunteer workers, people who want to make this world a safer place for future generations.Celeb heroes:Cult TV and movie producer and director IRWIN ALLEN for stimulating my imagination from childhood into adult life!Directors RIDLEY SCOTT, JAMES CAMERON and QUENTIN TARANTINO.Fave actress: UMA THURMAN, above them all!MUSICAL HEROES: Many have already been mentioned above, but special mention must go to SACHA KONIETZKO, this guy and his band KMFDM's innovative, ahead-of-its-time music and attitude is awesome! Anyone who can make music from sampled civil defense bulletins, dodgy BBC sound effects, public information films, military speeches twisted into something different and bad movie dialogue is great in my books, just add some meaty beats and guitars and some keyboards and off you go. Sounds fun.
