'He came on top of the stingray and the stingray's barb went up and into his chest and put a hole into his heart,'' said Stainton, who was on board Irwin's boat at the time.

from the Times

oh my god, that's so sad.

I really liked that show. For a while I thought he would die due to a croc eating him.

feel sorry for his wife and kids.

He's wrestling crocodiles with Jesus now.

do animals go to heaven?

Only the ones that Steve has wrestled with.

damn,a winged croc is even scarier

Not much of a fight for Jesus and Steve though.

WTF? Baby bait?

this is seriosuly shitty, i love that guy....

what? no way.



oh yeah. he was fucking intelligent.

The dude he was.

Its so sad, i saw it on the news earlier today, i feel so sorry for his family.
RIP

I heard this last night on Radio Canada International and thought I was hearing things. It was late, and I was half asleep. I guess it was true. Wow.

"wow" as in "yeah,that's cool!" or as in "wheew...i feel sorry for him and his family,it's strange to think about him as a dead person..."?
i don't know why,but i'm kinda taking all this story personal...i need a drink.

i, for one, am not surprised.

but you know me. i don't have any feelings.

Just wow, I'm surprised. Though, maybe I shouldn't be.

Didn't he almost die last year from something else animal related?

He probably tried to grab Stingy for a group photo and got nailed with a 5 inch muthafuckin' needle. :D

I assume this will be on You Tube in about a week.
