William Tell
William Tell was a troublemaker who lived in Switzerland during the 14th century. According to legend, an Austrian official placed a hat on top of a pole in Altdorf and made it mandatory for everyone passing by to remove their hats. Tell refused to obey the order and was ordered to shoot an apple off his son’s head from a distance of 120 yards. Tell would be executed if he failed to complete the task. Tell decided to shoot the apple and was fortunately successful.

Sun Tzu
The ancient Chinese military leader is frequently credited with writing the war manual. However, there is little evidence that his book, The Art of War, was actually written by him. Many people believe the book was a collection of military lessons compiled by Sun Tzu over several generations.
