First few that came to my mind are:

Lloyd Irving of Tales of Symphonia
Christopher Johnson of District 9

There could be others who are more heroic, but I can't think of 'em yet.

I second Shogun's answer: Samwise. To me he epitomizes heroism.

Obiwan Kenobi. There may be others equally heroic; he’s the first that came to mind. It is one thing to risk one’s life. It is quite another to sacrifice oneself passively, for the greater good, especially when the hero/ine truly is a fighter. It must be divine-level hard to do. I hope never to find out.

Aragorn II, Son of Arathorn. Actually, I find most people who are willing to sacrifice themselves so that others may succeed in a noble and just cause is pretty heroic, especially when the likelihood of success is small. Aragorn just seems to epitomize that.
