00:00Everybody's looking for a hero.

00:09I am not a hero.

00:11That was a part.

00:12I played the part.

00:13I'm not that man.

00:18Hands down, he was Superman from day one.

00:21I realized that if I could pull off this part, it would change my life.

00:25John Hausman said, Mr. Reeve, it is very important to become a serious classical actor.

00:30Unless, of course, they offer you a load of money to do something else.

00:36He convinced me when I first met him that he would fly.

00:40Doing things with my dad, it was all about activity and action.

00:44Riding bikes, playing soccer, skiing.

00:50My dad was very competitive and he didn't necessarily slow down.

00:54We said goodbye and he gave this wave.

00:59That was the last time I saw him on his feet.

01:06Mr. Reeve currently has no movement or spontaneous respiration.

01:10Superman, crazy.

01:12Just that simple little thing over the horse.

01:14I ruined my life and everybody else's.

01:18I won't be able to ski, sail, throw a ball to Will.

01:22Won't be able to make love to Dana.

01:24Maybe we should let me go.

01:27She came flying in and she just yelled, I love you, I love you.

01:32And then she said, the words saved my life.

01:36You're still you and I love you.

01:42He and Robin were such good friends because they could match each other.

01:45Robin also had struggles that he dealt with his whole life.

01:49And I think that they both were aware of darkness.

01:53Brother Chris is fighting like crazy.

01:55When you find people who fight like that but still keep their humanity,

01:57that gives you great hope.

01:59That is tough because I can feel him, but he can't feel me.

02:03It must have been hell for my mom too, knowing that she had lost.

02:10I felt I needed to do something, not just for myself,

02:14but for everyone else in the same condition.

02:17The fact that Superman was in a wheelchair

02:19and was willing to go public with it was huge.

02:24Help is on the way.

02:32The Christopher and Dana Reeve Paralysis Act.

02:37People are literally walking because of him.

02:41What is a hero?

02:43My answer was that a hero is someone who commits a courageous action

02:51without considering the consequences.

02:55Now my definition is completely different.

02:58I think a hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength

03:02to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.

03:07I wouldn't have missed this for the world.
