'The Crocodile Hunter' as he was more commonly known, was apparently stung in his chest by a stingray, while filming a documentary in Australia's Great Barrier Reef. The medics could not get to him in time.

I suppose by now all the news sites will be all over this story.

I kinda expected that some dangerous animal would do him in. His penchant for always wanting to be right up in the most dangerous animals' faces was a bit baffling at times. There are safer ways to showcase wild animals. They're called 'wild' for a reason.

He will be missed.

Yeah....I was surprised when I heard the news, too.
Can't really say I was surprised at the circumstances, though. The man was one humongous risk taker, and probably had one of the most dangerous jobs in the world.

R.I.P. Steve Irwin. You shall be missed.

now now, we cannot say he wasnt looking for dis.

THis was merely a case of when and by which one of them.

I guess most people were assuming it would be a croc that sucks though.

R.I.P

I suppose from his perspective on life he'd be happy to go out doing what he loved. Not many ppl can say they lived and died doing what they were always meant to do. I mean it could always have been worse, death by car crash, stray bullet, etc (yuh know the ways alot of ppl die in T&T stupidly) so all in all I say cheers to him and my condolences to his family.

Perhaps if you found a way to sharpen the edges it might be possible.. but let me not give you ideas...

So true. He said himself that aussies back home were actually embarrased of him.
