I thought that was Capt Rob. But seriously, Gilligan, you have to admit
that Irwin has gone out in a highly individualist style. There has only
been one previously confirmed fatality from stingrays in Australia prior
to this, and one possible. Crocodiles on the other hand are eating
somebody quite frequently now.

You'd think that person would get out of the water.

I guess their identity is being kept relatively secret for
obvious reasons.

The irony has parallels:

"Struck down
By the sword of a hero, let me fall--
Steel in my heart, and laughter on my lips!"
Yes, I said that once. How Fate loves a jest!--
Behold me ambushed-- taken in the rear--
My battlefield a gutter-- my noble foe
A lacky, with a log of wood! ..."
