Stingray kills 'Crocodile Hunter' ...

Wow what a shame. He was an amazing guy!

As you say Mucks it was just a matter of time. You just cant have a profession like his and not expect anything like that to happen. He has kept me and others I knw entertained for years.

I'm sure he will be missed by his collegues
 
ohh I remember that bloke

thats a shame
he was a nice bloke
i used to watch his programmes

RIP MR Irwin
 
"Crikey!"

An unfortunate accident... but he was rather fond of tempting fate and testing his luck.
I'm sorry he died though.
 
Thread cleaned.

Guys (lightmaster) please remember what this thread is about - it is to remember this man for the work he has done and not to make light of his death.

Thanks
 
An amazing bloke, my parents saw him at Zoo Australia back in Feb of this year.
 
Such a shame he has left behind such a young family :(

RIP Crocodile Hunter
 
After all the risks he took it was a damn shame to die from such a freakish accident.

The last recorded incident of a human being being killed by a stingray in Australia was in 1945.

I wasn't all that aware of the fella actually, though I had heard of him.

My feelings go out to his wife and kids :(
 
I am really saddened to hear about Steve's death - his energy and enthusiasm for his work was awesome and although many may/could say that he did some mad things I always enjoyed Crocodile Hunter and his other programmes. What a real shame and so so sad for his wife and children.

It seems fitting in a way. Given his personality.
If he had to die then, I think he would rather have died out doing what he loved, than to have 'died quietly in his sleep'
At least he lived fully during the time that he had.
But beyond sad for his wife & children.

Down here the news hit the radios (& presumably the TV's) before his wife had been notified (she was off tramping I believe)
I cannot think of anything more appalling
I hope someone got to her, to tell her personaly, before she heard it on the news.
 
It was a shame, the guy was a legend....

RIP Steve Irwin....
