I enjoyed learning about Nancy Wake...she was pretty badass.
quote:
Ms Wake, who has died in London just before her 99th birthday, was a New Zealander brought up in Australia. She became a nurse, a journalist who interviewed Adolf Hitler, a wealthy French socialite, a British agent and a French resistance leader. She led 7,000 guerrilla fighters in battles against the Nazis in the northern Auvergne, just before the D-Day landings in 1944. On one occasion, she strangled an SS sentry with her bare hands. On another, she cycled 500 miles to replace lost codes. In June 1944, she led her fighters in an attack on the Gestapo headquarters at Montlucon in central France.

Using a modified Mosin–Nagant in the Winter War, he has the highest recorded number of confirmed sniper kills – 505 – in any major war.[2]

Remarkably, all of Häyhä's kills were accomplished in fewer than 100 days – in other words, approximately five kills per day – at a time of year with very few hours of daylight.[5][6][7]

That he did. He also lived in Southern Morehouse parish not far from my house. He was the epitome of a bad mutha humper

Countess Bathory, one of history's most notorious serial killers. Her specialty: the sadistic torture and mutilation of young peasant girls, of whom she annihilated hundreds.
I'm not a particular admirer of the lady, but her infamous and lengthy resume of horror surely earns her a place in the Hall of Badassory.

Ermmmm . I'm thinking it's not really considered "baddass" to do this to young peasant girls. I mean look at the list so far. You have guys taking out things like wild bear with nothing buy a knife, guys holding off hundreds of Germans using the machine gun on a burning tank that could explode at any second, all while fully exposed to return fire, another guy who stacked Russian soldiers up like cordwood with nothing more than a old bolt action rifle. This lady just killed a bunch of little girls. Maybe if it were something like marauding Mongol horsemen or something... but not little peasant girls. It's just not the same.

Vasily Zaytsev
quote:
Soviet sniper and a Hero of the Soviet Union during World War II, notable particularly for his activities between 10 November and 17 December 1942, during the Battle of Stalingrad; during this five-week period he killed 225 soldiers and officers of the Wehrmacht and other Axis armies, including 11 enemy snipers.
Prior to 10 November, he had already killed 32 Axis soldiers with the standard-issue Mosin–Nagant rifle effective range of 900 meters. Between October 1942 and January 1943, Zaytsev made an estimated 400 kills, some of which were over 1000 meters.
Inspired the film "Enemy at the Gates," and has a super hot great granddaughter that lives here in DC.
I have more badasses that I admire, but Zaytsev should always be included.
