Someone who is capable and can rationally handle the toughest of situations while not being an asshole. A true badass does not boast or brag about anything and does not describe themselves as "badass" nor do they go looking for fights. A badass can only be determined as badass by what others think of him/her/it. There are no specific actions that make someone badass, they simply are or become one.
In the movie The Avengers, Character Agent Coleson is a badass for his bravery and incredible sense of duty.
