Well we probably all knew this was coming at some point. But Thr Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin died today off the coast of Australia. He was supposedly filming some underwater documentary when a stingray barb went through his chest. He is survived by his wife and two kids.
News Story
You know, I suspect that stingray was hired by all those harassed crocs and snakes and spiders to assassinate Irwin.
That's sad. Although he was a bit, well, over the top on TV, I think his heart was in the right place. Ironic that it was a stingray though, considering how much he messed with those crocs. Crikey!
I was telling a coworker about it and he didn't know who I was talking about until I said "CRIKEY!". I lost it...
Wow, that's really too bad. Have to feel sorry for his wife and kids.
He was a good bloke - I remember his pretty much crying when he saw one of those "high classed" establishments where they milked snakes and used the venoms in drinks. He was a beneficial force to the world, and he'll be missed. All those other clones are just imitators!
The man who fought for nature...Steve
He was famous in Malaysia.
He was famous everywhere! Arguably the most famous Australian.
Barb through the chest... so... fantasty/mythical sounding.
