heroism
Ever heard of the story 武松打虎 (Wu Song kills Tiger) from Water Margin (one of Chinese literature classics)? 1000 years from now, people might talk about the tale of 'Dragan the Shark Killer' in ancient Egypt in B.C. 2010. Yesterday, a killer shark was killed after a Serbian tourist jumped barehanded into the sea. He passed to his friend his only weapon, a bottle of beer, and jumped off the jumping board into the sea where the shark of lurking. He killed the beast with a single strike. But if you talk about heroism, there was really really none to speak of. The Serbian touist was in a drunken stupor when he leaped off the jumping board to do a high dive. The poor shark who was struck squarely on its head was no more than an unfortunate victim of killer litter. Well so if you need any story of heroism for posterity sake, we can exaggerate this one here. It helps that his name (Dragan Stevic) sounds like Dragon, so we can scream on the headlines . Read more about it at geekologic and macedonia online. You can check its authenticity yourself.
