Steve Irwin RIP


I'm so sad that Steve, our favorite crocodile hunter, died. What a freak accident since sting rays are generally safe animals to be around and that the one that killed him just happened by chance to get him in the chest. I read that although Steve always put himself out there in dangerous situations, he always said he didn't think he would die from an accident on land but if it ever happened it would be in the water. Reason being that he was more agile and in control on land but water was just another element that put things out of his control. His death was caught on tape because he was filming a documentary and the tape revealed he actually tried to pull the barb out after it stabbed him. Just so tragic... He was a great entertainer and educator, he will be missed by many. May Steve rest in peace.
