A tragic hero is of higher than ordinary status and morals. He will be ultimately responsible for his own fate.
Romeo is the tragic hero because of how his actions affect the story so drastically. He is very impulsive which gets him into a lot of trouble. Romeo would be typically considered as a lover not a fighter, but sometimes he just snaps and losses control. For instance when Mercutio was kilt it was his fault, but he wanted to just act like it was all Tybalt's fault, and then kilt Tybalt. That shows that he has limits. Also Romeo knowing that he had a bad feeling about going to the Capulet's, he set himself because if he never met Juliet then Mercutio wouldnt die, neither would Tybalt, him or Juliet.
