Steve Irwin is dead!!!

awww dude, i love the crocodile hunter, this is really sad, for me at least, and his daughter is 8 yrs, shes old enough to understand the loss and young enough to be scarred by it, thats really ****ed up. he was a bit annoying but he was passionate about what he did, hes awesome.
 
I suppose it was a case of inevitablity finally catching up, but it is awful and saddening news to say the least. And as Jade said, his poor children are now left without a father, nature is left without one its most amazing protectors, his wife is left now alone, and we are left with only the memory of such an amazing personality. Rest in Peace, Steve.
Nicely put, WAS. You typed almost exactly what I thought. So I will just agree with your post. And add my own two cents worth by saying...

Crikey!
 
I appear to be the only one who isn't bother by his death... I couldn't stand his voice. I never watched the show, I felt like he was talking as though his audience were idiots. It was how he spoke... His tone of voice. He dumbed everything down I felt and made everything seem so dramatic.

But... I said a few years ago 'he won't live long enough... As my father said: "He isn't as careful as he could be with those animals, he will get himself killed in a few years time". I was expecting him to die via Croc bite... My father expected it to be a snake bit.

All that aside, yes its sad he is gone... But I was expecting it to happen so I'm not saddened by it. Let this be a lesson to everyone, don't underestimate things that have the protential to kill. Even experts can easily get killed. Don't take this as heart-lessness, even though it sounds like it, I'm just being serious here. I'm not glad his dead, I wish that upon no one.

he's dead and you were right... I am an australian and he was a great ambassador for the country and enviromental conservation and he will be deeply missed :(
 
Not to further dampen this already tragic event. But years ago when I first saw Mr Irwin on the Box, I really thought he would buy it from a huge Croc! I was really expecting to see him lose and arm or two, maybe even his head to some pissed off Reptile.
