Teddy Roosevelt, the Ultimate Badass
Teddy Roosevelt was indeed a legendary figure known for his numerous exploits. In addition to witnessing Abe Lincoln's funeral procession, he was the first sitting president to leave the country and visit other nations. He also led the Rough Riders in the Battle of San Juan Hill during the Spanish-American War, where he charged up the hill on horseback and captured enemy positions.
After being shot by an assassin in 1912, Roosevelt gave a 90-minute speech before seeking medical attention. Despite having a bullet lodged in his chest, he refused to go to the hospital until the lesson ended. Teddy Roosevelt symbolizes American strength and resilience, and his image is forever etched in American history.
