Comments: While the movie version which helped elevate him to the mythical status required to get on this list was not the most accurate historical account it might have been (lets just say casting a five foot four Australian/American as the lead sums up its devotion to correct historical detail), it is true that the second son of an obscure knight, a mere youth just out of his teens, without the support or patronage of a single noble, managed to attract followers, strike fear into the enemy during face-to-face combat, secure the hatred of Edward Plantagenet I of England, and become the hero of a nation.
