    1043 Words  | 5 Pages

    Heroes are ordinarily portrayed as life-savers, triumphant soldiers, or self-sacrificers, but Into the Wild tells the story of a different kind of hero. Chris McCandless may not inherit the typical heroic traits that many would expect, but through his courageous travels, Chris changed the perception of modern society on a global scale. While some argue that he was nothing more than a rebellious fool, there is no denying he made an impact on the hearts of the few he met along the way and the numerous readers of the novel. Chris McCandless is a hero because he reminds the world to value the joy of true simplicity, authenticity over materialism and falsehood in his inspiring journey into the wild. People from many backgrounds and fields may dispute that Chris was simply rebellious and foolish to go out on a dangerous journey alone, but others argue it was more heroic than foolish.
