If he had fired the missles, we wouldn't be able to look back and observe that he did. Therefore, it's not possible for us to say he's a hero, he's just a man that did something.

Can you imagine how many chicks Petrov would have gotten if he'd just spun the angle correctly? "Hi, my name is Stan, and I saved the entire free world from a nuclear holocaust. Perhaps you've heard of me. Yeah, I'm THAT guy." He should have gotten MA
