Steve “Crocodile Hunter” Irwin RIP
Wow. This is pretty bizzare. I was going to say “unexpected”, but when a man takes quite as many risks as this guy that doesn’t really apply.
It looks like Steve took a stingray barb to the chest whilst diving on an underwater documentary. The medics at the scene were unable to save him.
I’m convinced that, on the back of all his stunts for camera, Steve and his wife did do quite a lot for conservation and animals as a whole. So it is a shame.
Here is the BBC News coverage of the story [news.bbc.co.uk] and the Aussie news story [news.com.au].
