A hero is someone who saves the day. For example, the firefighters on 9/11 were heroes because they rescued many people. But all the people in the Miami condo are dead so it looks to me like the Miami rescue workers didn't save the day for anyone. I am not saying the rescue workers are incompetent or cowardly. Maybe the conditions were too dangerous to realistically rescue people, or maybe everyone in the condo died instantly so there was no one to rescue. But no matter the reason, if you didn't save the day then I do not see how you can be called a hero.
