Sorry that I am too late with the poll. But it is pretty difficult to name so many personalities the majority knows!

@Wise Goldie Are you back on Tuesday?
@ICEcold_Stoic and @Musical Cats I have really no idea for what these people stood for. Can you introduce them to me, please? :redface:

Copy and pasted from Wikipedia:

''David Goggins (born February 17,1975), also known as The Toughest Man Alive, is a retired United States Navy SEAL, American ultramarathon runner, ultra-distance cyclist, Former Guinness World Record holder, triathlete, public speaker, and author of his two memoirs, one being the New York Times Best Seller Can't Hurt Me released in 2018 it has sold over 4 million copies. Goggins wrote a sequel Never Finished which was released in 2022. In 2019, he was inducted into the International Sports Hall of Fame for his incredible achievements in sport. Goggins was also awarded the VFW Americanism award in 2018, one of the most prestigious awards that an individual can achieve for their service in the United States Armed Forces.''

Man's a machine and absolutely relentless in his pursuit to push past his limits both mentally and physically. It's this mentality (or dog mentality as he calls it) that inspires me to do the same.

The American physicist who was involved in the first launched atomic bomb? What does this make him so admirable in your view? did you see the biopic in the cinema?
