Was just watching him wrestling a croc yesterday. Just watched the news and I have to agree with David Bellamy that all crocodiles will be in mourning, a great conservationist, a sad loss.

Life is harsh.

He's wrestling alligators in heaven now. RIP, dude.

Wow, thanks very much indeed.

Is that from your personal collection?

Got to say I was gutted when I found out, just getting my lunch and I saw a headline on the front of the MEN.

Poor guy's family - 2 little kids and a wife.

Still at least he was doing what he loved when he bit the big one.

So basically it's like having a wooden stake hammered through your heart!

It pierced his heart, i still can't belive it it's pretty unbelivebale.

RIP dude.

Just heard about his fellas death and i have to say im gutted as well, definitely liked his style of making animal wildlife interesting. He did play some dangerous games and i was always suprised that a croc never got him.

RIP Steve

RIP Steve, the guy was a legend

fozzybear · 4 Sep 2006 at 14:40

I couldn't believe this news when i heard it around 7.30 this morning. It's hard to believe such a character is no more. I do actually feel more sorry for his wife and kids than i do for Steve Irwin himself.

It's ironic that he was finally killed by a fish rather than a snake or crocodile. Apparently, the last death this way was back in 1945 (according to Nigel Marven). Sheer bad luck.

RIP Steve.
