Death

Seriously, do you lay awake thinking up questions like this?

Men dreams of being heroes from youth... and a heroic death is part of it but rarely foremost in the mind (after all, slaying dragons and saving "Damsels in Distress" for a living is much more fun then dying and never be able to do it again).

But it comes in our daydreams, then we play a heroic last stand, or a fight to the death, and be remembered for all time. Being remembered for posterity is definitely our fancy.

Lol I know right?! Even Poe would be like...

And he was creepy

I'm a weird person. And murder is the last thing on my mind lol.

Are you taking notes? Lol. Strange question. But I'm a wimp so if I'm gonna die non-peacefully just shoot me. Make it quick.

I don't blame you at all. A whimp myself I must say.

Yeah, or some electrical shock.

I'd freeze do t ask me why I'd freeze

Ever notice Olaf is in this picture? Lol

No lol. Idk why but freezing seem like a cool death

uh, yea it would be "cool" alright. Lol

Well that's not cool. Maybe falling into the void to save my friends

Also I wanted to see the weirdest answers

Lol

No i.dont think ill find a wife just humorous

Right after I proclaim on national TV something everyone already knows and end it with "If I'm wrong, may God strike me dead!"

Well then you better be %100 sure you're not wrong, lol

Interesting.

Something fast, like getting hit. I'd like to be dead at the initial blow

Saving people's lives

Amen, Sheepdog.

Thanks you too

Now you made me feel all selfish wanting a quick death. I'd die for my family and my Faith (like a martyr) but I wouldn't be able to endure much torture.

Me neither

Wow that one finally came out .

How you bro.

Stopping a terrorist

Oh nice

No greater love then when a brother lays his life on the line for another

Yes indeed.

U?

Well I said freeze. But I'd like to die like you.

Ah. Any luck with the girls on here?

Rather embarrassing. Its private. Here on imgflip if you find it you'll die in horror

Yeah, you manage to breed her?

Timiddeer?

No

K

Um.....yes

Do tell

Dude, you really think you're going to find a wife here? This ain't Tinder, lol

That's a hard one.... On the one hand, I'd love to stop a mass shooter or a terrorist (I'm with MichigenLibertarian on that), but I don't want to die in the attempt. I want to succeed in doing so in order to save lives.

If I'm at ground zero of the attack, I'm unable to closee in, and the gunman is about to fire on a would-be victim next to me, I'll risk death shielding him/her. If I die because of it, then so be it.

Or jumping on a grenade

I like that idea; my whole body will shield all others within its lethal range (at least reduce its lethality). So, if he does, I'll jump on it.

Like in captain America

But you know the funny thing about being a hero is this: you don't feel like a hero afterwards,

Lol

While very one tells you you're a hero

Yes, exactly. I've always wondered why for example, veterans always denies that they are, and I thought they were just being modest. I've also noticed heroic civilians do the same thing.

I've come to realize that no, they were just telling the truth in how they've felt.

In the heat of battle, when your comrade(s) is about to get shot, the only thing that comes to mind is to save him. At that point, you just don't want your brothers who've shared the same experiences through basic, military life, and in combat, die.

Often, those who've become heroes weren't looking for the opportunity. Opportunity finds them. And when the moment comes, when "Fight or Flight" (Faint or Freeze in between) kicks in, it is virtually automatic.

"After the Fact", if you've recovered sufficiently from that traumatic experience (depending on what danger you've experiened), you realized... "Wait... I'm no hero.... it's just something I just had to do. I didn't have a choice."

I think that sums it up pretty nicely

Yes, like Captain America; and every Soldier and Marine thruought history who've had to do it to save his comrades.

K

Actually more like a operation market garden story. A soldier jump on a grenade to a save a general

Or that

Yep
