I chose an outlaw folk hero who is known to every Australian, and the defiant iconic hero of every person who ever fought against injustice and unfair laws. He was a bushranger.. the very word brought fear to rich travellers and wealthy landowners, but the poor knew this man would always be on their side to help them.
He was infamous for the laws he broke, for the robberies he committed, and for the trouble he gave the law whilst trying to capture him.
He was famous for the suit of heavy armor he made for himself to prevent being struck down by police bullets. That armor is on display in the town where he last lived: Glenrowan.

May I present��Ned Kelly.
