If you were to invite your hero for dinner who would it be and why
Mohammed
Kamali
Age:16
Emirati
I would choose Al Pacino because I’m a big fan of his movies, he’s my
favourite actor, and if I were ever to act in a movie, I would choose a role
that was similar to what he would act as. Many people think I look exactly
like him!
I would ask him what his tips and techniques are about acting, and how
he keeps his cool when he’s playing tough roles.
I would serve him... definitely, pizza- just because I like pizza (and
he’s Italian)
Abdelrahman
El-Temtamy
Age: 19
Egyptian
My life-time hero would have to be Royce Gracie, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu
legend, because his story and experiences in life are very inspiring
and motivational to me, and provided me with strength to
continue training Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.
If I had a chance to ask him something, I would ask him about
what his biggest goal in life is?
And I would probably serve him a protein shake... haha.
Dimitri
Alexseev
Age:16
Russian
I would invite Dave Mirra for dinner, because he has been very
successful in his life. He started out as a professional BMXer and
he made his own Bike Company called ‘Mirra Co.’ Then he made a
team and started professional rallying.
I would ask him what he wanted to do next in life.
I would take him to a restaurant called Chamas in the
Intercontinental Hotel.
Danial Khan
Age: 16
Pakistani
I would invite Ryan Nyquist, because BMXing is my favourite sport I
guess. He rides like how I want to ride (trails).
I would ask him about his interest in riding and how he got started in
his career.
I would serve him a nice 1 pound burger that I would make myself!
