Agree, but I think that unfortunately he did.

Re: Steve Irwin has died
 

It was reported that the Stingray struck him and pierced a hole in his heart, immediately giving him a massive heart attack, so hopefully it was too quick for him to suffer.

I still can't comprehend he's gone :(

Re: Steve Irwin has died
 

We go to a beach south of Margaret River called Hamelin Bay & Stingrays come right up to the edge of the surf, literally in a few inches of water, right next to you. It's an awesome experience. They are beautiful creatures & actually quite friendly. I knew they were dangerous but not that deadly.

I posted in the US Forum also I had the pleasure to meet Steve when I lived in Ausssie and what a fabulous fabulous man.

Sleep in peace Steve.

This is very sad news. His TV shows probably did as much to get me through grad school as anybody I actually knew in person. :(

Re: Steve Irwin has died
 

First day back at school today and heard about it in the staffroom.
Been upset all day and couldn't stop thinking of his wife and 2 children
and all those who have worked with him for many years :(

Re: Steve Irwin has died
 

I just got back online.
My internet was down when I got in from work.

I heard the news breaking about mid morning on the radio.
Initially it said that he’d just been involved in an accident, then about 30 mins later they said that he’d died.

He was one of those people that you really liked or you really didn’t.
I always liked him.

I just watched the re-run of his interview with Andrew Denton on Enough Rope.
He came across as a really nice bloke who was just naturally, “full on” all the time.

Australia has lost a bloody good bloke today.:(

RIP Steve.

I'm lost for words....

RIP.

Re: Steve Irwin has died
 

Its so hard to believe, the kids and I just cant get our heads round the fact he is actually gone.

My heart goes out to his wife and kids.

Sad day for Australia.

Re: Steve Irwin has died
 

Just dropped in here to check if the terrible news I heard was true and unfortunately it is :(

My heart goes out to his family and all who knew him, a great guy who will be missed but never forgotten

Re: Steve Irwin has died
 

So so sad. Thought he was a wonderful positive guy who I loved to watch on TV, was really looking forward to seeing him when I visit Australia Zoo. Why do the good always die young?

Thoughts and love to his family.
