What is DYING like a hero?

Can someone explain to me the definition of dying as a hero? That one eludes me. Is it dying for a cause? Dying in a dramatic way? You hear about people falling off their motorcycles or their parachute doesn't open and people say they died as heroes.

Maybe this guy did die a hero, whatever that means? Do you have to be doing some action to die like a hero or did the following die as heroes too?

Did Ghandi die as a hero?
Did RFK or JFK or MLK die as heroes?
How about Dale Earnhart (sp)?
