Who in history?

would a scientist or general be fun to actually meet though

Well this thread was meant for describing people who fascinate you. But yes I think I would like to meet Ghengis Khan. You have to remember, while you find someone boring, the person who finds them intruiging would have tons of questions and comments to hold a conversation.

I wouldn't wanna meet Jesus though, I'd be tempted to tackle him.
