Here's a great practical joke. Go up to a total stranger in the street and say "Hello, I'm Batman". When they look totally bewildered and outwitted, pretend you've got it wrong and shout "oh no, i've got it wrong, I meant to say "Hello, you're a FAT MAN!!" Then laugh at them and run away.

Emmeline Pankhurst, Joan of Arc and errr Colonel Sanders. I hate KFC and all fast food but I admire him because at the age of 65, when he was broke and alone, instead of moaning about it he thought about what he could do and what he had that was of value to others. So he had this chicken recipe that everyone seemed to love and he thought to himself, what if he sold it. He went and started knocking on doors telling restaurant owners about the recipe and many people laughed in his face. He spent 2 years driving across America in an old rumpled suit, sleeping in the back of his beaten up car telling people about it. He was refused 1,009 times before he heard his first yes. That's 1,009 noes and he kept going all that time! He's definately worthy of being called a hero.
