Crocodile Hunter Killed Today
Steve Irwin was killed today when a Stingray's barb pierced his heart while filming a documentary on The Great Barrier Reef...ironic how many animals he encountered, only to die by the barb of a Stingray... :-/ ...

Re: Crocodile Hunter Killed Today
That's a shame for sure. I know it's said often, but I think he truley died doing what he loved. I know he got some flak in the last couple years over bringing his baby into the croc pens while feeding them, but the guy had a hell of a life.
RIP Steve.

Re: Crocodile Hunter Killed Today
He went out the manly way doing what he did best and I have to say over the years I probably watched all his shows but clearly it was just a matter of time before come critter got the best of him . Much better to go that way which was instant than laying around for years with tubes sticking out of you *** with no hope of recovery..I feel for his wife and little one as its going to be a rough road ahead for them ...Hopefully he was well off enough so they wont have to worry about it ...Frank

Re: Crocodile Hunter Killed Today
Two of our network affiliate news are sayin' there's video of the incident...not surprising as they were filming a documentary...I'm sure we'll all see it sooner or later, but it'll be hard to watch... :-/ ...
