The planet's most amazing human

OK, I talked myself into it by another post I made!  Here's what I said:


Whenever I start feeling sorry for myself, my pain or limitations (like I am now following my surgery!) I think about Stephen Hawking and it bumps me right out of it.   Completely crippled by ALS, he is as close to a brain in a jar as one could imagine, yet this genius of our time keeps growing and evolving.  I think he is the most amazing human being on the planet. 


Who would you nominate - living or dead - as the most amazing human ever on the planet?
