Why am I putting him up here today...because he's fucking awesome.
He worked in the military for a little while then ended up having a problem with the whole word 'BOOM' yeah he got all kinds of freaked out so his doctor told him to try out acting
So acting he did...and he owned that bitch, he not only played in two different Pimpernel films (The Scarlet Pimpernel in 1930s then another one Pimpernel Smith) he played in 'Gone with the Wind' as Ashley the love intrest of Scarlet O'hara (I really hated that movie) but it didn't end there...thats not why he's awesome...so here is how he died
When the Nazi war was raging on and London was sending its youth to the hills our favorite actor Leslie Howard stayed behind (Whos Robert Howards father) he stayed behind waving goodbye to his wife and two kids. He started to work as a secret agent (Oddly enough the title of yet another movie he did)
He and a few others boarded a plane with information for the Prime Minister knowing perfectly well it was being targeted...the plane was shot down and no one survived. He knew he was going to die...yet he got int he plane and did what he thought was right. He's a hero
