I watched Ironman last night and there was one scene that really struck me.

Ironman gets shot out of the sky by a tank and he falls to the ground. He gets up and is face-to-face with the tank - the tank fires another shell and Ironman twists his body to dodge the shell. He then extends his arm and fires a rocket into the tank and turns around and starts to walk away before the rocket explodes.

It doesn't sound like much, but on video it seems like he projects such an air of confidence in that scene. Here you go.

Warning: The scenes below either have explicit language or violence.

Here is a scene from American Gangster with Denzel Washington. He just seems like such a badass in this scene. Be warned, this scene is graphic.

Another one. Scene towards the end of Training Day. Denzel's character is getting desperate at this point but he's still being a hardass.. even though he does get himself shot in the ***. Haha.

i was gonna mention donnie darko too....


and i think anyone who can dig down and find the motvation to not give up on life no matter what....thats fearlessness

i don't belive that there is asolut fearlessness because fear is what drives people...taking risks....

i think fear/anxiety are an energy source. We project them onto certin things and avoid using our fear. An example is fear of failure. People are afraid to follow there dreams because their afraid of letting themselves/others down. If they use that fear as motivation not to fail and work for what they want they succeed. Insted people come up with reasons and exuses as to why there dream is not realstic and avoid doing what makes them happy because they don't want to face the chance of failure.

I don't no if all this makes sense but i think being fearless is more about beingable to face your fears in the hardest times and not having fear of nothing....
