Occupation: Actor, Hollywood

Often regarded as the big-daddy of all the movie superstars, Harrison Ford plays the quintessential American hero in his movies, who doesn't believes in starting fights, might even be scared of it, but when pushed to the boundary, certainly finishes them. His accomplishments as an actor make him a class apart. He started his career with a $150 a week, seven-year contract as a studio player in Los Angeles and worked his way up the ladder to become one of the richest actors of all time. He has reprised unforgettable roles like Han Solo and Indiana Jones and been the star of 4 out of 10 biggest blockbusters ever produced. His films have grossed more than $ 6 billion worldwide, and aged 60, he is still earning $25 million per picture. 2008 was particularly an eventful year for him when his fourth installment of Indiana Jones went on to gross $787 million worldwide making him the richest celebrity amongst all. He has a love for flying, which he says is like music to him. He has maintained his own fleet of aircrafts, which he himself pilots, off and from his 800-acre (3.2 km) ranch in Jackson. He has blended his passion for flying into social service by putting to use his flying toys for rescuing stranded people. In one such incident he rescued a woman hiker in his Bell 407 helicopter. Ford, who does not like peeping toms in his life and avoids interviews, however could not stop himself from divulging details about his mean machines, which keep him on the fast track. In one such interview discussing his “ride hard” spirit he told that he “has eight to nine motorbikes, four or five BMWs, a couple of Harleys, a couple of Hondas and a Triumph; plus I have sports touring bikes.”

"I rarely play a real person, because I don't think I'm a good imitator."
"“You keep on going until you get it as close to being right as the time and patience of others will allow.”"
"“I get mad when people call me an action movie star. Indiana Jones is an adventure film, a comic book, a fantasy.”"
"“We all have big changes in our lives that are more or less a second chance.”"
"We all have big changes in our lives that are more or less a second chance."

Wyoming ranch

owned by
Harrison Ford

Ford is very fond of this grand ranch and uses it for hiking purposes and as a training ground for his flying lessons. He says, "It was at one time a working cattle ranch, but when I bought it 20-some-odd years ago, the first thing I did was sling the cattle off it and let it go back to the natural environment. It took three or four years for the grasslands to come back and the streams to clear up. Now the cattle have been replaced largely by elk, who use the same food source — grass. And they're much easier on the environment." The 800 acres is mostly cottonwood trees and river bottom, so it's laced with spring creeks, coyotes and foxes and deer, all kinds of small critters and birds.
