An example of a "nobody" that became a hero that comes to mind is Vicki Soto. Soto is a teacher at Sandy Hook Elementary school in Newtown. Even though Vicki may be just an ordinary teacher, but her actions definitely make her a hero.Vicki, put herself between the killer and her children. Although she is just a teacher, what she did made her turn into not just a teacher but a hero. One that put her life in danger, to save her students. Vicki cared so much more about her students, than herself and friends of Vicki would speak about how she just wanted what was best for the students. Vicki is a hero because she puts her life in jeopardy, just to save six children. That is a true a hero, when one scarifies their life for others. Vicki goes from being a teacher to becoming a superhero that saved her students, by putting herself in between the killer and her students.
I also believe, Tristin Saghin, is another example of a "nobody" that became a hero. Tristin was visiting his grandmother with his family in Arizona. Tristin is just a nine year old boy, but when his sister is found unconscious in a pool, Tristin performs CPR on his 2 year old sister. Tristin performed chest compression and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on his sister, who was pulled from the pool unconscious and not breathing. A guy so young like Tristin, who saves his little sister is truly a hero. For Tristin, imitating what he had seen on TV was enough. That boy is not just a nine year old boy who likes to play with action figures and video games, but a hero that saves a life. What he did was extraordinary. He doesn't have any superpowers but he has a heart that makes him a hero.
