Everybody's looking for a hero.
I am not a hero.
That was a part I played the part.
I'm not that man, hands down.
He was Superman from day one.
I realized that if I could pull off this part,
it would change my life, John Hausman said.
Mr.
Reeve, it is very important to become a serious classical
actor, unless of course, they offer you a load of
money to do something else.
He convinced me when I first met him that he
would fly doing things to my dad.
It was all about activity and action, riding bikes, playing
soccer, skiing.
My dad was very competitive and he didn't necessarily slow
down.
We said goodbye and he gave this wave.
That was the last time I saw him on his
feet.
Mr.
Grieve currently has no movement or spontaneous respiration.
Superman.
Crazy.
Just that simple little thing over the horse.
I'd ruined my life and everybody else's.
I won't be able to ski, sail, throw up all
the will, won't be able to Make Love to Dana.
Maybe we should let me go.
She came flying in and she just yelled I love
you, I love you.
And then she said the words.
Saved my life.
You're still you and I love you.
He and Robin were such good friends because they could
match each other.
Robin also had struggles that he dealt with his whole
life and I think that they both were aware of
darkness.
Brother Chris is fighting like grace.
When you find people who fight like that but still
keep their humanity, that gives you great hope.
That is tough because I can feel him, but he
can't feel it.
It must have been hell for my mom too, knowing
what she had lost.
I felt as I needed to do something, not just
for myself but for everyone else in the same condition.
The fact that Superman was in a wheelchair and was
willing to go public with it was huge.
Help is on the way.
Christopher and Dana Reeve paralysis at People are literally walking
because of him.
What is a hero?
My answer was that a hero is someone who commits
a courageous action without considering the consequences.
Now, my definition is completely different.
I think a hero is an ordinary individual who finds
the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming
obstacles.
I wouldn't have missed this for the world.
