Holy shit, I thought this was some sort of a weird joke when I first saw the thread title. I really liked Steve Irwin. When I was younger I used to watch his show (when there was only one) almost religiously. He definitely gave me more respect for reptiles. Who'd have thought he'd go out like this?

Sort of ironic way to go for someone who deals so closely with crocodiles and ends up being killed by something that is for the most part harmless. At a nearby aquarium these things are in an open tank so the public can feed them & touch them. Bet that policy's going to change...

Great shame that someone so passionate & knowledgable about his work, and a great entertainer died so soon.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Never did watch his shows, but I definitely know who he is. R.I.P. Steve. Hope his family can get through this.

in before...

In West Australia, born and raised. In the ocean, there I spent most of my days. Chillin out, maxin; relaxin all cool, stroking some stingrays inside the pool. When a couple of crocs who were up to no good, started making trouble in Australia Zoo. So I got one little bite, and Terri got scared. "you're moving with your aunt and uncle in Bel Air" I whistled for a boat and when it came near, the licence plate said fresh and had dice in the mirror. If anything, I'd say that this boat was rare, but forget it, yo captain to Bel Air. I pulled up to the sting ray about seven or eight and I yelled to the captain yo holmes smell ya later. Looked at the sting ray my heart it did puncture i sit on my grave as the crocodile hunter

How ya doing, buddy?

I wasn't a big follower of his or anything, but I respected guys like him and Jack Hanna. My condolences go out to his wife and kids, as well as his many fans.

I used to watch his show at Discovery when I was still viewing the TV regularly... First I thought his way of talking was a bit obnoxious, but eventually, thought he deserved a measure of respect for the conservative work he's doing - not to mention him actively putting his life at risk for his work. He was all passion.

I'm really shocked to hear the news.... Rest in peace Steve.

Can't imagine what his daughter Bindi must be going through right now.

The ironic thing is that he wasn't killed by the venom of the stingray, but rather the tail pierced his suit and heart.

RIP Crocodile Hunter.

I remember seeing an outtakes episode of his show that mainly focussed on all the times he'd been bitten, scratached, or threatened by the animals he was handling. One of the clips was of a crocodile biting his hand. His reaction was to stand there with blood streaming down his hand and just sort of laugh and scold it.

It's not like he never got on an animal's bad side in the past, and stingrays aren't exactly unknown for injuring people with their defense mechanism (the tail barb). But still. It's a shock. Say what you want about his personality, but he did a hell of a lot for conservation and promoting a better understanding of wild animals in a way that actually hit the mainstream. He'll be missed.

"Attacks on humans are a rarity - only one other person is known to have died in Australia from a stingray attack, at St Kilda, Melbourne in 1945."

I heard about this shit this morning upon waking up. I had no idea it really happened. I had a hard time believing the man was killed by a STINGRAY of all things.

It seems kind of horrible that he didn't die by croc. I mean, who would have expected a sting ray.

And yea, THROUGH THE HEART. Man. Its like the stars aligned to fuck Steve over. I really liked him and I loved his passion for what he did. ;_;

This sucks. I'm not surprised in the slightest. But he always seemed a good guy. I feel bad for his family. Poor kiddos. He should of been more careful for their sake.

Law of averages. If you fuck with deadly animals all the time, it's not all that surprising to eventually get killed by one.

Are you talking about Timothy Treadwell? Because THAT guy had it fucking coming, yea. "I'm going to go live in Alaska in GRIZZLY BEAR country!" He had no experience save for what he learned while he was there. And the guy was kind of....well....mentally ill if you ask me.

Steve was a pro. He had been doing this all of his life, and he didn't even get nailed by the animal he worked with most. ;_____; STINGRAY. So sad.

Are you seriously trying to make this fucker out to be mentally superior in any way? They were both out of their fucking minds, this asshole was just a little more prepared... Except for a stingray barb.

I didn't like him for being showy infront of the camera all the time (provoking the dangerous animals and what not, I'm pretty sure you all know what I mean ).

However, I do respect him alot for most of his other work, as in saving the animals, giving out alot of his tv-money to animal organisation, zoo's, vetschool and whatnot.

I hope someone will take care of his kids, I heard his wife isn't exactly the awesome mother-type.

R.I.P dude.
Also.. wtf? a stingray? weren't you supposed to end up in a croc?
Oh well, atleast you died doing what you loved x_x

I first heard the news on another forum earlier this morning. Such a shame. I never watched his shows or cared that much for him, but I probably won't understand the pain his wife and kids must be going though. Ugh. >_<

And I'm with everyone else here.

You know, if I read the article correctly, he was filming something for his daughter when it happened. Not the documentary.

Now that's going to be a guilt trip. Poor thing.
