I think look at the movie Braveharth Were people say He can't be William Wallace, too short,to this and that,Peoples perceptions are often colored by what the want to see in a person instead of what the person is really like. It's all over our History, people assigned certain attributes to others not base on facts but desire to see that over their weakness. Heroes are people too they a lll have their good and bad points,its call being Human, some people don't want to see the Human side of their Heroes.
