Hah, you guys.... it's death though, I always respect that, but there are exceptions though, but he didn't ask for it or anything, haha.

Dude, if you swim in a dangerous place, you should expect the worst.


Thats the same logic as "you play with fire and youre gonna get burned" - yet you sure did save your rash comments when Webby had that incident last year.

I love how everyone on here has a go at him for doing something dangerous and being killed, yet all of you thrive of trying to do dangerous things to look cool on the internet.


I know...seriously.

99% of the time I'm not serious on this forum...I just talk a bunch of random crap and thats pretty apparent. But in this thread its that 1% of the time where Im actually being serious - so in all seriousness theres nothing funny about this guy dying, leaving his wife a widow and his kids without a father...

What a man.

The accident in which Australian naturalist and TV's "Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin was killed was captured on video, producer and friend John Stainton has told reporters in Cairns, Queensland.

"I did see the footage and it's shocking," said Stainton. "It's a very hard thing to watch because you're watching somebody die and it's terrible."

Irwin was killed yesterday when a stingray's barb pierced his heart.

"It shows that Steve came over the top of the ray and the tail came up, and spiked him here [in the chest], and he pulled it out and the next minute he's gone," explained Stainton. "That was it. The cameraman had to shut down."

Since news of his death broke, mourners have paid tribute to the iconic nature lover. At a makeshift shrine located at Australia Zoo, north of Brisbane, hundreds of people have laid flowers and left messages of respect. Australian prime minister John Howard said Irwin was a "great Australian icon," and the Queensland government is considering arranging a state funeral.
