The Frontman of the popular British Metal Act, Iron Maiden, One of the greatest ever metal artists ever.
He was the successor of the band after Paul Di'anno, left after the "Fear of the Dark" album and Blaze Bailey stepped in and Bruce came back on the 2000 album "Brave New World" and has been there ever since
"666 the number of the beast, hell and fire was sworn to be released!"

The fucking man. Has recorded 16 albums with Iron Maiden, 9 solo albums, is an Olympic-level fencer, has written 2 novels, has been a TV actor and presenter, and he owns/can drive a tank. Probably well-endowed as well.
Bruce Dickinson is the pinnacle of human achievement. I bat off to him every night.

Greatest voice in Heavy Metal. He began his career singing for Samson under the name Bruce Bruce before joining up with Iron Maiden shortly after the departure of Paul Di'Anno. Began his career with a bang after recording the popular album "The Number of the Beast" which showcased his amazing vocal talents- especially in the song "Hallowed Be Thy Name."
Bruce departed from the band pending a solo career after the release of Fear of the Dark. His first album, Tatooed Millionare didn't recieve much acclaim, but when he partnered with Roy Z and made the album Balls to Picasso. Bruce's albums occasionally featured the guitarists of Maiden including Janick Gers and Adrian Smith. Among the most popular of his solo albums are Balls to Picasso, Accident of Birth, The Chemical Wedding(a pseudo-concept album using many of the works of William Blake, and the recent Tyranny of Souls.
In 2000 Bruce returned to Maiden and recorded Brave New World, and later Dance of Death. Bruce hosts a BBC radio show and flys Boeing charter jets for British Airways. He commonly sports the slogan "If it ain't a boeing, I ain't going!" and hosted a special for Discovery Channel UK.
In his off-time Bruce also wrote two books, The Adventures of Lord Iffy Boatrace and The Missionary Position.
Bruce Dickinson is a god.

Born Paul Bruce Dickinson on August 7, 1958 in Worksop, Nottinghamshire, England. He is a British singer, airline pilot, fencer and songwriter, best-known as the lead singer in the iconic heavy metal band Iron Maiden. According to All Music Guide, Dickinson "was the most acclaimed and instantly recognizable vocalist to emerge from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal movement of the early-'80s.
Before Iron Maiden, he was the singer in a similar band called Samson from 1979 until he joined Iron Maiden two years later. In Samson and previous bands, he went by the name of "Bruce Bruce". He made his recording debut with Iron Maiden on their Number of the Beast album in 1982. During previous years, he was in Styx (1976) (not to be confused with the American band of the same name), then went on to sing for Speed (1977 - 1978). When Speed split up, he joined Shots until the summer of 1979.
Dickinson quit Iron Maiden in 1993 in order to pursue his solo career and was replaced by Blaze Bayley, who had previously been the lead singer of punk-metal band Wolfsbane. Dickinson's solo work ranges from the Alternative Rock sound of 1996's Skunkworks, to the all out Metal style of Accident of Birth. To many, Dickinson was releasing an artistic energy he felt was suppressed by Iron Maiden's strict progressive metal format, which he claimed could not accommodate emotional reflection as evidenced in the lyrics of "Tears of the Dragon." After releasing two traditional metal albums with former Maiden guitarist Adrian Smith (which were arguably more akin to the genre than Maiden's epic format), Dickinson rejoined the band in 1999 along with Smith. Both are still in the band to date. Since then, Dickinson has only released one more solo album but says his solo career is not over.
Dickinson has always been noted for his broad scale as a singer in comparison to other Iron Maiden front-men, labeled "The Air Raid Siren,"3 for much of the 1980's. In the early 1990s he altered his singing style, becoming more gutteral and raw presumably to fit the stripped-down rock sound of albums like No Prayer for the Dying and Fear of the Dark. After leaving Iron Maiden, he varied his singing style, from the theatrical style of "Tears of the Dragon," to the raw bluesy style of "Inertia."
Since returning to Iron Maiden, Dickinson has experimented with his voice, adopting a soft reflective sound for songs such as "Journeyman, " and "For the Greater Good of God," a raw rock style for songs like "Wildest Dreams," and a style much like Genesis era Peter Gabriel on "The Legacy."
Dickinson currently presents the Friday evening "rock show" on BBC radio station 6 Music. He has recently taken the helm of BBC Radio 2 Serial 'Masters of Rock'. He also presented the 5-part historical TV series about aviation; Flying Heavy Metal was shown on the Discovery Channel in the UK. He was also a guest on a Discovery Channel show where he shared his enthusiasm for trains. The most recent television programme he has presented was a show on spontaneous combustion for Sky One called "Inside Spontaneous Human Combustion with Bruce Dickinson", in which he investigates the phenomenon of this occurrence by enlisting the help of several experts and performing various experiments to determine its possible cause.
