Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin Killed
 

Seems he got stabbed in the heart by a sting ray barb. Too bad, nice
guy, the kids loved watching him.

I have a spot were a ray cut my leg 11" long down to the bone (about
5"deep). Diden't even feel it happen the tail was so sharp.

Id rather pet a shark than a ray.

I used to spar with Sugar Ray. Knocked him down one time with an
uppercut... (he's almost defenseless against an untelegraphed
uppercut, odd how so few of his opponents realized it)

You shouldn't goad people like this. You know he's too chicken to do
much of anything except squeak a bit from time to time.

Skinny little muscles there, boy! To cut to the bone on my chiseled
legs the wound has to be at least 8" deep...

Well duhh, I wasn't there. I read he was killed while diving. Diving
usually requires a regulator.

SYDNEY, Australia (CNN) -- Tributes from around the world are flowing
in for Steve Irwin, the enthusiastic Australian "Crocodile Hunter" who
enthralled audiences around the world with his wildlife adventures.
Irwin died Monday morning after being attacked by a stingray while
shooting a TV program off Australia's north coast. Irwin's manager and
friend John Stainton said Irwin died doing what he loved -- filming
life in the wild. Typical of the hundreds of tributes that have been
e-mailed to CNN.com is this one from Tina Treece of Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania: "Crikey, I miss him so much already." Australian Prime
Minister John Howard, who knew Irwin and his family well, praised him
as a "passionate environmentalist" who promoted a serious conservation
message. "He made an extraordinary contribution to creating a
widespread appreciation of the value and uniqueness of Australian
wildlife," Howard said. Foreign Minister Alexander Downer said his
friend Irwin was "always the showman" who was generous with his time in
promoting Australia. Actor Russell Crowe told Australian media Irwin
was "the Australian we all aspire to be." Irwin was snorkeling at Batt
Reef, a part of the Great Barrier Reef offshore from the town of Port
Douglas, when the incident happened.

"He came over the top of a stingray that was buried in the sand, and
the barb came up and hit him in the chest," Stainton said.

The guy was Jacko in khaki. Any respectable Australian would distance
himself from this publicity hound. Remember him feeding his infant son to
the crocodile?

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.

Ah. An undercover agent for OzTours. "yes but it's only one body at a

I note today that the Fraser Island dingoes have graduated to eating
toddlers.

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! ..."

I'm sorry, I thought you were Bobsprit.

Yes, the guy is dead. So are 99% of all humans who ever walked the earth.
Are they immune from any criticism too?

What have I said that is untrue?

a. He almost always wore khaki.
b. He pranced about in the bush, shoeless and wrestled crocodiles, snakes
and spiders. All he needed was to change his name to "Bruce". Talk about
Ozzie caricature.
c. He did these antics in front of a camera, they were staged for the
camera. He was a publicity hound.
d. It's on film, him dangling his kid in front of a crocodile.

Refute one single bit of it.
