Micheal did do the good and decent thing by staying behind to try and defuse the bomb and it was nice to see him do his best to pay for his mistakes.
But I still have to go for Ben though, since while he may not have done one stand out, defining action (like Sawyer jumping out of the helicopter risking death or Michael staying behind with the bomb and risking death), he did all he possibly could to try and save the Island, meaning he also did everything he could to save everyone esle on it. He sacrificed something of huge importance to him: something that has defined him and guided him and given his life purpose, which is his place on the Island. Not just standing aside to let Locke take over he banished himself in order for it to be protected, rather than fight it out to the bloody end in a stubborn attempt to keep everything exactly as it is...exactly as how he had originally planned and wanted it.
And Jack...dear goodness no not a hero!
