    I have often thought to myself, what if I could run as fast as Usain Bolt or be as smart as Bill Gates. I'm not talking about superheroes like Flash! I'm talking about real people who have unbelievable talents and skills. So if you could take the skills of one person who would it be and why?

    I think being superman would be terribly annoying after a while. All those demands on your time from a bunch of pathetic ants. A weaker hero would have a little more emotional connection.

    I'd squish people if I was Superman. Squish em up.

    Maybe someone like Richard Branson, or anyone who has a great knack for entrepreneurial ideas.

    Or

    Dr. Anthony Atala - He is doing amazing work in growing organs that could be used in human transplants.
