I woke up this morning to the shock news of Steve Irwins death.
But then it occured to me, why should I be shocked about the death of a guy who wrestles crocks, jabs snakes with a stick, and tries to 'out stare' tarantula's?
Seriously though, I was very saddened by his demise. This guy lit up the screen with his energy and enthusiasm, and he really was a joy to watch, and made the subject interesting and fascinating.
To be jabbed in the chest by a string-ray, is, by all expert accounts a very rare occurance to say the least. There are only 3 recorded cases *ever* of this happening. It just seems he was a guy in the wrong place at the wrong time (unless he was teasing it of course!)
Well, Ill miss him

RIP Steve, and thoughts for his young family too.

It wasn't a huge shock because of his field of work, but it is really sad. He was an environmentalist and animal lover, which makes him a special person in my books.
Apparently they may be giving him a state funeral!
Also, they filmed his death. I wonder how long before...
apparently jimmy nail is gonna sing crocodile shoes at his funeral. they wanted to ask sting but thought it was a bit unappropriate.
Can I "lol" at Phil, without sounding too heartless?! I sell newspapers, so therefore read most of them...and in a nod to evo1's comment, yeah apparently, it was Steve Irwin's wish that his death be shown on TV.....
You can LOL all you like Graeme :-) I would be surprised if his final moments were ever shown on TV (his manager said they should never be shown), but Im sure they will be on the internet before long :-(
In a macabre way, I'd like to know what his last words were. I'm guessing something like, "Aw crikey, that was a close one...nah, hang on... bagger!"
no his last words were bubble bubble bubble
his last words were..............f***ing big ugly f***ing son of a bitch pi**ing ar**ho**, what the f**k was that for, c**t. (ive seen the footage on the internet)
