jackson Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 he got stung in the chest by the barb and it made a hole in his heart which is why he died, none of this poison talk. the man was a fucking legend, in the words of will greenwood he had balls as big as a house. a geniune one off top geezer who fucking loved animals and got millions of people around the world interested in the less cuddly animals and despite his thumb up the arse tactics he did educate aswel as entertain. im gonna miss steve irwin. rip. the crocodile hunter film was fucking terrible though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachie Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 Found a rather funny quote in an article somewhere...Aha. Gotcha:' On one occasion Leno asked Irwin to show how the sex of a crocodile could be ascertained. "I put my finger in here and if it smiles, it's a girl," Irwin said. "If it bites me, it's a boy." 'Well it made me crack a smile anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delboy Posted September 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 apparently the last time someone died of such an injury was 1945 so a freak accident indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Frieda Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 Aww what!? Just because they are famous you cant cry for them!? Fitiver min.I named my guinea pigs after his dog and his crocodile. he was on TV over here a week ago when a 200yr old tortoise died. He started crying and saying he was ging to put up a plaque and stuff for it. Aww, he was a really nice guy...but why on earth was he friends with John Howard!? grrr....

Sam 45 Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 Sad sad news this. Steve was a great laugh and you can imagine he was a great guy. The popular internet messageboard signature i have seen today is "Fuck Stingrays". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundian Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 apparently the last time someone died of such an injury was 1945 so a freak accident indeed. I dunno about freak accident, he basically made a career out of noising up dangerous animals to get a reaction for the cameras. He probably thought he was in no real danger beacause hardly anyone has been killed by a stingray, got complacent and didn't register the warning signs, or didn't even know what a warning sign was from a stingray. Should've stuck to what he knows inside out, crocs. Shame though, not the way I'd choose anyone to die, especially someone who really did seem to care about the animals.

TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 ' On one occasion Leno asked Irwin to show how the sex of a crocodile could be ascertained.

'[/quote']How do you know if a crocodile is smiling or not? ...And on the whole "harmless stingray" thing, as mentioned in the above quote, Irwin was probably trying to stick his thumb up the unsuspecting stingray's arse or something.

Guest MKII Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 I heard on northsound this morning that his family want what was filmed to be shown on tv. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Amy* Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Ouch, I don't think I want to see that...His producer & friend said it shows him pulling the barb out and then that was him more or less gone. Also saw that if the family agree, he could be having a state funeral.He once said if a croc finally got him, he'd like the cameras to be rolling. Bless.

Stripey Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Steve Irwin was once asked what his favourite kids TV show was.He replied that although Thunderbirds was his favourite, there'd always be a place in his heart for Stingray.
