I remember seeing an article a while ago, that showed real people in history that topped Hollywood movie characters in badass-ness. Anyone know where this is?

Cool article. But no, the one I'm looking for is different.

It is a comparison between movie characters, and real people, so you're right there. One of them was about this guy in world war II who got pissed off about the enemy troops, so he got his hunting rifle, sat in a tree, and killed like 600 of the enemy troops. Eventually, they amassed huge fighting forces to kill this guy, but he always ended up killing all the enemy troops. He finally died when someone's stray shot hits him.

I think it was on cracked though. Maybe not.

It was on cracked for sure, because I know what you're talking about I just can't seem to find it.

It had something about the Boers too.

Most badass fighter in WWII BTW was definitely Wojtek, the Iranian Bear.

And I'm not even fucking kidding.

I always thought the scotsman who beat up a burning terrorist was pretty funny.

Asked by ITV News what his message to terrorists was, he said:

"Glasgow doesn't accept this. This is Glasgow; we'll set aboot ye."

It was reported that Smeaton shouted "fuckin' mon, then" and aimed a kick at Kafeel Ahmed, who later died from his 90% burns following the attack.
