Could you be a hero?
In August, 1957, Mechanix Illustrated published an article called, "Could You Be A Hero?" In the article was a quiz that purported to tell you your "Hero Quotient." The quiz is very much a product of its time, and was slanted toward its obviously male readers. The questions fascinated me, so I re-created the quiz here.
I read the original article at modernmechanix.com but unfortunately, I can't paste the link in here. If you go to their website and search for the title of the article you can read it-- but don't do that until you've taken the quiz. Heroes don't cheat. Now, go find out if you could be a hero.
