I can't believe it couldn't kill and 81 year old, but could kill a 44 year old. Must have missed the heart with the former.

According to a news report I heard on the subject, they attributed it to the fact that he did not remove the stinger after the strike, giving surgeons the opprotuinity to remove it safley. Thats not to say Steve Irwin died because he pulled it out immedeately, but it does make you appreciate just how fine the line is between getting killed and living through such an attack.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
