Heroes Are Ordinary People

“Heroes are ordinary people, they just have the endurance to go one moment more”. Anybody can be a hero. The difference is a hero has the guts and determination to go into the chaotic situation and save the day even if that means risking their own life. Heroes are willing to do incredible things and they never think of going back and are not worrying about themselves.
