Steve Irwin aka THE Crocodile Hunter has died!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry, Double post

I really really really thought he was gonna get killed by a snake or a crock :(

Gosh...I feel so bad now. The worst part is that he teased the animals all the time. ;_; I shall go mourn now...then sulk... ='(

I may not be a fan of his show, but I'm shocked when I first read that the stingray pierced his heart. Man! I hope all of Australia---and Irwin's family---will be okay when time passes. :(

very sadddd
kind of makes me think about the comedy act Dane Cook did of him. quite funny but sad, i never thought he could actually die after all the shit hes been through.

best of wishes to his family

Nah...it did happen fast. He would have bled to death, which is actually probably one of the fastest ways to go, and probably the least painfull since you'd black out first.
Strange thing is, the video he was making showed him pulling the barb out of his chest. If he would have left it in, he could have survived. Those barbs are seratted, and he ripped the whole open and let loose all of the blood his heart was pumping when he did that.
At least he was someone who definately lived life to the fullest, even if he had his idiotic moments.
RIP Steve

eat beef burgers!

OMG me 3 i was sooo upset when I found out!!!

And I neva got to meet him :(

R.I.P Steve Irwin

I do not understand these idiotic moments though. If you are referring to the baby incident well, I hardly think that's idiotic if you've seen the other angles you can see how far away from the crocoile he has his baby are. Additionally you can actually see the crocodile start to move away.

Then again I think it's idiotic that there was a man who used to wrestle crocodiles. None the less he was good with what he did and was passionate.

The Queensland Premier is offering the family a state funeral which I think would be appropriate. Funny how you never really appreciate someone until after they're gone.

His manager related a story to the press conference that he and Steve had thought that if he were to die on an adventure that it wouldn't be on land but that it would be on sea.

I am deeply saddened by his death.

Animal Planet is one of the very few channels that I watch, as TV is mostly plagued by shitty low class entertainment.

I truly admire people like Steve Irwin and Jeff Corwin for their efforts to teach new generations about the beauty of wild life and the importance of conservation.

Very sad news indeed. I can't imagine how much pain his wife Terri and kids must be going through.

Steve will be dearly missed.

Immense, I imagine. They were holidaying in Tasmania at the time.

Ooer.

Not sure if it has been mentioned but it was announced today that footage of it happening will be shown, something Steve would have wanted apparently. From what i have heard the footage consists of him swimming over stingray, the barb goes it, he pulls it out and dies.

Question is do we actually want to see it.

when are they gonna show this? :(

Well now they are saying it "may" not :-
