According to Peter Stillman, a hero should not only inherit the great qualities but also he should be similar to ordinary man so that people can relate themselves and try to learn from the heroes. When there a hero overcomes his challenges and rectifies the flaws in his life, the audiences will get inspiration and motivation to follow the footsteps of that particular hero. Gilgamesh is one such heroic character who has influenced many people through his heroic qualities of courage, bravery, grit and sacrifice.
