What??? Since when does one need to be God to paraphrase the bulk of the news stories on this subject? I read up on it, mmmkay, sweetheart? I had nothing better to do stuck at work on Labour Day. The rest is common sense - if I punch you in the face, were you within my 2-3 foot striking distance? Hmmm...one not need omnipresent abilities to calculate that one, my dear Brenski.

You puck off, you pucking bastard puck!
Respect - listen. My uncle was with Queensland Parks and Game for 10 years, doing the same dangerous things Steve-O made his circus living out of. Only, the Queensland Parks people actually do it for real animal conservation - no bleachers, so applause, no cameras, no mega-bucks. Just danger, occasional lost limbs and horrible scars, but the knowledge that they're making a difference. My uncle was the first person to breed endangered tree kangaroos in captivity, possibly bringing the species back from the brink of extinction. That matters.
I was a fan of Steve's for about 3 shows, until I realized it was all staged, contrived crap - wanna know how to tell? Everything you see is filmed by a cameraman. Steve-o spots a croc in a dark river at night and spontaneously decides to dive into the river - off he goes! Fuck, he's crazy! But wait - the cameraman's already set up underwater with night-vision camera to catch his entry! WTF?? Go back and watch the show now, keeping the cameramen in mind, and you'll see just how scripted and cornball it really was.
If you want a class act in the wildlife entertainment department, watch Rob Bredl's show, Killer Instinct - he's a croc expert and a conservationist, but he treats these creatures with the caution they deserve.

Please guys, it's a tragedy and has hit Australia hard. Not to mention the fact that his kids now have to grow up without a father, and Terri is now widowed.
Steve absolutely did not deserve to die. Some of you on here are being very cruel and judgemental. The fact is, Steve cared alot about protecting wildlife. He certainly just do it for money, in fact every cent made from the Zoo went back into it, and he still lived in the little country house that he grew up in, in the small town of Beerwah, which is about 1/2 an hour from were I live. He never wanted to be treated like a celebrity, he just wanted to inform the world of the beauty of animals and the importance of conservation. He was more of an Australian icon than anyone else I can think of. He will be missed.

Can't at all speak for the others in the thread - but I never once said he deserved what he got, and more than once I acknowledged his death was a tragic one.
It's none of my business that people take umbrage with my belief that he wasn't the foremost mind on the animal kingdom that our country has to offer; I honestly think he wasn't. I think he was possibly one of the most helpful personalities in term of animal conservation in that he created awareness of this whole part of the country that most of us don't see. His zoo was pretty top notch.... when I say that I think he didn't show animals much respect, I'm talking about the big-arsed camera crews, the wide eyes and the shouting...
Animals don't like that crap anymore than I do.
In no way am I casting aspersions on his legacy or whatever. If it's possible, he was one of the greatest benefactors to the Animal Kingdom in general, but on a person-to-animal basis he was more like a serial pest; shoving cameras in animals faces and making a hooah out of things.
Bless him though, really - I am sure enough that his enthusiasm will live on in some form in his kids, and that one day they'll be grown adults that he'd be proud of.
