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.

I loved Steve Irwin...he cracked me up.
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.

a completely annoying twat...

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

Also he had excellent taste in khaki outdoor attire .

he also got alot of kids to actually take interest in animals,because he was so entertaining to watch.My nephew never missed a program!

true but he was still annoying.

I wanted to watch him being attacked by a hippo.

Sure MD, any excuse for owning the DVD box set.

I wouldn't have minded having a go at him myself...

my money would be on you.

if only I had known beforehand...

oh, well.

yeah...he's dead now anyway

oh his annoying qualities pale into insignificance compared with his kid who is apparently huge in Oz...i can't remember her name, but had the misfortune of seeing some of her tv show when i was staying in singapore...

MM, xx

.....but he always spoke so highly of you ?

MH!!
