Why Is Hercules Be Considered A Modern Hero

“Hard times don’t create heroes. It is during the hard times when the “hero” within us is revealed.” ~Bob Riley Our modern day has seen many modern heroes; such as firefighters from 9/11, first responders at Sandy Hook Elementary School, and everyday spectators at the Boston Bombing. After reading the Greek Myth entitled “Hercules: The crime” the Greek hero Hercules can be considered a modern hero as he was considered a hero by ancient Greeks of 477-431 B.C.. Hercules can be considered a modern hero because he shares the same of the qualities as Victoria Soto such as being intelligent, protecting others, and selflessness.
Hercules can be considered a hero if he was still here today because he shares the same quality as Victoria Soto; intelligent.
