i grew up watching his show ; ; apperently stingray venom is not poisonous(sp) but deadly if stung near the heart

Steve cheated death more than any person I know, or more than any person I've ever heard of.

I dont think it was the venom that got him, I think it was the big sharp lance-like bone shooting through his chest cavity into his heart while underwater that really aggitated him.

Damn. Despite the (usually obscene) risks that guy took on a constant basis, I was somehow shocked to hear that. Sad day. :/

Ol' Steve was an easy target for jokes but I admired the guy-- he always had a great attitude and made a living doing what he loved. He's an inspiration to us all.

Steve Irwin is the shit. The TV show Crocodile Hunter kicks ass. Best animal show ever. I hate animal shows in general because they are always watered down with pansy birds (and not cool ones like eagles) and turtles and crap... Crocodile Hunter? Only the world's baddest ass animals. Snakes, spiders, crocs...
R.I.P Steve!

They have his death on tape..they are arguing about releasing it or destroying it. Apparently he didn't even see the stringray as it was covered in sand at the bottom. He swam over it and scared it...it bucked and stuck him in the heart with its spike.

I would like to see it, just because I have seen so much otehr crazy shit he has done... But I believe ultimately, that it is the family's decision...
