If a man dies doing what he loves in life then there's no reason to be sad, he knew the risks, his family knew the risks but they supported him.

Respect to the guy

OMG!!! that soo sucks! he was the best guy on telly, i was a massive fan :(

what a shame, and i feel for his little kids too thats harsh

the worst thing is that he dedicated his life to helping (and ####ing off) animals and in the end it was an animal that killed him :(

:down: RIP mate :down:
 
Steve Irwin can't die, he is invincible! I grew up watching him on telly. Real shame to see him go - he leaves behind his wife and kids. Fair play that he died doing what he loved though, that's gotta be the best way to go.

RIP Steve

Oh no, poor bloke!! Well as a few others have said, he died doing what he loved. Still tho, it's way riskier under water as your movements are limited. I wonder y it attacked him. :(

It'll be on my blog for anyone who has that type of humour.
It wont be posted on here like wilsonians "Stingray" thread... which is extremely hilarious btw!
I hope I don't come across as a bad person, or infact someone that would post something as inappropriate as that on a forum dedicated to cars.
I'm not that kind of person atol, just so you know... maybe the odd post with a disgusting sandwich is too far.
I suppose that's up to the mods to decide. Anyway: I made a tribute to him on my blog before the photoshops began. It's somewhere at the top of the thread! Apologies if I offended anyone!
Wilsonian, where did u find that? you're not a member of my fan club are you?

Shouldn't that be 'live by the tooth, die by the tooth...'
Will there be any crocodile tears at the Steve's funeral? Or will they be enviromental & re-cycle him as crock chops for the zoo!? I always thought he was a bit too cavalier, the baby incident showed what was comming...

I met Fred many years ago,he did a talk one evening at my school just as the first TV shows were being broadcast (Yes they were in colour, I'm not THAT old), he was a true hero!

Don't know whether you're joking but that's quite sick dude, and if you are joking it's just dis-honourable and in bad taste.

Lets not be nieve here... if somebody is in the spotlight and somthing happens to them... even death... there are jokes.. I think the fact that around the world people are talking about steve urwin is a sure sign about how famous the man was..

He was a joker and went doing what he loved to do..Way to go STEVIE BOI!!..

Bit of me went with u fella!
 
I thought the guy was amazing with a real love for life, at least he went out doing what he loved, I feel for his family though, my 11 year old daughter is totally distraught about it, he was a personal hero of hers.

My son Tyler feels the same way.

I think he's a bit of a role model for kids, he sure did get their attention.

Had a bunch of kids round at the weekend, noisy as hell, my wife switched channels and then silence, Old Stevo was on. Top Bloke.

Tyler told me they spent the afternoon talking about him at school today!
 
Ok, SORRY, a bit tasteless I agree, & even I wouldn't do any 'thumb' gags etc... and yes, I feel sorry for his family (I'm going through loosing my nan at the moment, long drawn out death...) and yes, I can understand kids getting upset. BUT I do feel he was VERY irrisponsible in the way he went about dealing with animals, it was like playing chicken with a truck, bound to happen, the only good thing he did was getting the public interest. I'd feel a lot sorrier if something bad happened to say, the people who run Monkey World, good work and responsibly done. And before I get flamed some more, think about what jokes about unfortunate things you have laughed about over the years however long after the event...

I can understand where Tazmaniac is coming from. The only thing i really disagree with tho is his baby son's incident where he was getting him very close to a gator, that was wrong!

Thing is he knew the limits he can push them too, and how far he could go before they would attack. Ok, maybe he made this one fatal mistake, but he has done it for years, and researched them for years. He knew how the alligator would act and I reckon his son was pretty safe. Can't believe how many people have been saddened by it, I sure am, the guy was a legend!!!
