    Default Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin Dies

    Just saw this on Fox News. Said it was a run in with a Stingray!

    I caught the tail end of the story, so don't know exactly when or where it happened.

    Wow, what a total shock. I can't believe that he is gone. I loved to watch him on tv. I feel for Teri and their two kids.

    How awful. I loved watching him.

    The phrase "you mess with the bull, you get the horns" comes to mind. I suppose he would have wanted to go doing something he loved.

    I was just watching msnbc news and they said the stingray's stinger came up and actually pierced his heart. They have only had 3 deaths of this type on record. The expert they talked to said it put a hole in his heart.
    What a shock. I would've expected to hear he died from being malled by a croc or something like that, not by a stingray. It's so sad for his wife, kids and his dad.

    This is so sad. I loved Steve, he had such a passion for life and all things living. My heart goes out to his family, especially his little ones.

    At least he went out of this world doing what he loved. Said he was filming a doc. on dangerous sea creatures. How Ironic and sad.


    Rest in peace Steve, you will be missed!
