There is nothing cool about luvvies, even Steve McQueen. Pretending to do something might look cool, but it's not really the same as doing it for real.
Steve McQueen did do it for real. He raced motorbikes and cars.
and escaped a POW camp... wink
In real life he was a us marine so he walked the walk
Well aware of all that, but really he was famous for being an actor. And it took him a while to get his head around the whole 'military discipline' thing.

But when he did he saved two men by dragging them out of a tank that was sinking through ice and became one of the presidential honour guard

And as BV's rules of da thread state you dont have to be famous to be cool

Good shout, so too were Clay Regazzoni, Jochen Rindt and Jo Siffert.

BV's quip about Graham Hill being a spiv made me chuckle out loud. He was definitely cool though and had a wicked sense of humour, winding up Jackie Stewart effortlessly on BBC Sports Personality Of The Year in the early '70s and much like Roger Moore, never took himself too seriously.

Don't think this chap's had a mention yet, which surprises me, he's got to be pretty cool, surely?


Definitely Uncool.

Musk is also seriously uncool. It wouldnt suprise me at all if he was revealed to be a paedo.

Hendrix and Jim Morrison beat this guy by a mile in drugs consumed, music made, groupies fked and style of death and they certainly wouldn't have worn leather keks in the 90s (had they not been dead). Elvis dressed better than Hutchins.

I don't know whether Hutchins is or was cool or who he was come to that. That picture is of Michael Hutchence.

I think the problem with many of these nominations is that it's pure image and not the actual person.

If you look into the life of someone like Steve McQueen that coolness hid a personality that was abusive and ragingly insecure. There's nowt very cool about that.
