What Are Some Colombian Heros?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    WHO are some Colombian heroes... otherwise I tend to imagine you mean some kind of South American variation on the American hero sandwich.

    There have been quite a few prominent and very talented Colombian cyclists.  Skinny little brown-skinned men who shimmy up the mountains at key moments in the big stage races.  Most prominent of these is the first Colombian to ever wear the Maillot Jeune, Victor Hugo Peña, who wore the yellow jersey for 3 days in 2003 Tour de France.

    Colombia can also boast proudly as the origin of one of South America's most famous and imaginative writers, cultural hero: Gabriel García Márquez

    Juan Pablo Ordonez is one of many modern Colombian heroes, working tirelessly and generally with negligible recognition from the outside world, to promote human rights in the country.
