The Croc Hunter Is Dead!

Steve Irwin died of a stingray barb to his heart.

It's a very sad day today. I hope he was ready to go.

Yea rev it is a very very sad day. And to think... what are the chances I always thought it would be a crocodile or something like that not a freak barb from a stingray. If the barb had been 2 inches in any direction it wouldn't have killed him it is only because it hit his heart.

What a sad thing. He did great things for animal awareness and conservation. His big heart and crazy antics will be missed.

Sad day indeed! I heard about it on the way home from gulf shores today. Ironicly I caught a stingray snorkleing yesterday. Well the world just wont be the same, he was one of the few who werent fakes. Hopefully he is in a better place today.
