Steve Irwin
 

Today is the second anniversary of his death.

Eccentric lunatic in many ways, but I always felt his infectious enthusiasm for wildlife made for superb television ("Look at this cobra!!! Deadly!! Isn't she byeeewtiful???").

I suppose his up-close-and-personal style with wildlife was ultmately what killed him, but I suspect his TV shows will be shown for generations.

It was so awful when he died,but lets face it...he was an accident waiting to happen.Some of the things he did were just crazy.

He was a complete fruit cake and utterly lovable for it :D.

Also he had excellent taste in khaki outdoor attire :p.

Re: Steve Irwin

I wanted to watch him being attacked by a hippo.

Re: Steve Irwin
