Most macho TV / movie star? I nominate Richard Boone. [View all]

Most macho TV / movie star? I nominate Richard Boone.
John Wayne, Claude Akins, Chuck Connors, Richard Boone, Clark Gable, Sean Connery, Daniel Craig, so many more. I'm going to nominate Richard Boone.

There are surely more modern stars. Russell Crowe?
