do you guys have any male role models you look up to whatever reason, either real or fictitious?

I'll go first: my role models are

1) my dad. my dad grew up during world war 2, and as a kid, he would tell me stories of what life was like during the war, like hearing air raid sirens and bombs dropping around his house he lived in at the time, and yet in my life i always knew him to be cheerful, he never showed signs of trauma or anything like that, which i find remarkable

2) the brazilian f1 champion ayrton senna, for how he displayed such skill on the race track, as well as how he went out of his way to raise money for the poor population in Brazil. and finally

3) Vegeta from dragon ball z. while i am not a huge dragon ball z fanatic, i do know that he went through a lot of hardship and pain, and yet he uses that to keep pushing himself to become stronger, even though he was a bit of a villain in the original dbz anime.
