Rob Dyrdek is heroic because he has accomplished many things in his life like, starring in two TV shows, having 21 world records, and founding and owning many businesses. He is only 35 years old and yet he has achieved many goals people twice his age wish to have met. Rob has starred in the television shows “Rob & Big” and “Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory”, along with his cousin Chris Pfaff and Christopher “Big Black” Boykin. Dyrdek even has his own foundation named the Rob Dyrdek Foundation where he builds skate plazas or skate parks for kids who might not have a nice safe place to skate all the time, he calls these skate parks safe spot skate spots.

My hero currently resides in Hollywood, California with his two dogs, Meaty and Beefy. He gets all of his work done in his office inside of his fantasy factory. Rob has all of his agents and other people that work for him work in the fantasy factory. He has been a part of two shows already and it has been said that he will soon be working on a new television series where he will talk about funny videos that are going around the web. Rob just wrapped up his third season of the Fantasy factory so his time will being going into his new television show that will resemble Tosh.0.

His heroic accomplishments include being a very successful skateboarder, and especially a successful businessman. He is a part of many companies and charities that have made him a big success in both the skating business and the television business. I think of someone as a hero if they are successful in life and happy where they are in life, and appreciate every little thing that comes to them.

I can relate to my hero because I feel that he has set many well planned goals that he has accomplished in his 36 year life span. I believe that we as people can see more great things come from Rob Dyrdek in the future. So far in his life Rob has set an example for the sort of things you can do in life if you set your mind to it and persevere, and then maybe you could be a hero to someone one day.
