The last one I can think of who got the "hero" treatment was Chesley Sullenberger, the pilot who landed that plane on the Hudson. That was years ago. Then he wrote a book, right? I don't think he got deconstructed, he's probably doing speaking gigs now. And there's the occasional war guy who gets the hero pedestal -- brave heroes all -- but everyone else I'm thinking of is like an actor or something. There's a few reporters and journalists I like, who are heroes for refusing to shut up, but they are rather niche and I'll admit I probably only like them because I agree with them, usually.

Edit again: Oh! I just thought of one! David Goggins. That guy has such inspirational strength of will! https://davidgoggins.com/
