Australia's "Crocodile Hunter" Irwin dies

I too was coming on here just now to post this. First thing I heard this morning. I am actually bummed out. I wish his family the best of luck, and may he RIP.
 
It sucks that he died, but I can not say I am shocked. I had him in my death pool 2 years ago as my long shot.

However, he was probibally fucking with that animal (as he usually does) and it was coming sooner or later.
RIP

Nope, he was swimming over it (burried in the sand), and its barb came up and got him right on the chest.
 
Damn man that blows ass...I STILL watch his show to this day...

Well, I hate to speak ill of the newly dead, and far be it for me to be an asshole, but I can't exactly say I'm sorry to hear this.

I mean seriously. A man who handled poisonous snakes, wrestled crocks, etc died from tempting fate one too many times..

I don't see this as a tragedy, but more as an affirmation that there -was- great risk in what he did.



I want to see you get the balls to do HALF of the shit he did. alot of kids leand from him. Not just kids but kids my age. We had to watch a show of his in highschool lats year and fro you to such a dick about this is just a black eye to Motown Muscle!

How can you say your not sorry to hear about it, jsut because he was taking a risk.......That is like sayin if a friend or family member of yours dies while drag racing a 9 second car, and then saying you dont feel bad because he was taking a risk.

Was it "balls" or stupidity? If a gun discharged while someone was playing Russian Roulette would we say it was sad? I think we would be saying it was avoidable.

The sad part is that he left behind a wife and children. My heart goes out to them, not someone who's death wish was granted.

Yes it is balls...I KNOW no one here in MM ( my self inclued ) would have the nuts to do the shit he has done.

Playing Russian roulette does nothing for teaching. This guy was more or less a teacher.

Funny, I feel the same way about people who die while street racing, but we always say "He/she's in my prayers" afterward.

None the less, whether I like him or not, he was my sons only real hero in this day in age.
 
Mark, I think you are about as out of line as when someone wanted parts off a car that was recently wrecked.:dontknow:

I am glad he passed doing what he loved, just as I hope I go out the same way, a Stingray. Hopefully I will be going faster, like 125mph.
 
yes this really sucks..back in november i took my family to a wiggles concert in NYC..Steve and his family made a movie with the wiggles..the wiggle make more money then nicole kidman and russle crowe combined....and during the NYC shows Steve Terri, bindy and bob all came..we had to park in the back of the lot because of my wifes diasbility...so after the show they stumbled onto us and my kids went crazy..

Steve wasnt testing fate, he knew what he was doing, if he didnt feel 100% about what he was doing he woulndt do it..i always said he isnt going to die by doing what he did, hes going to die by sine freakish accident as was posted earlier..and that is what this was. My father in law watches CNN non stop and the minute the story came out he told my wife...

im still in shock..thank god that my girls dont know
 
WTF's a wiggle?:laugh:
