May God bless him. He didnt deserve to die. Why him? I can think of so many other worthless assholes in this world that we can do without. Why does it have to be a nice guy like Steve Irwin?
What kind of father would take his baby underwater, with no breathing equipment, to face a deadly shark?
Don't worry, the picture is a photoshop. He did hold his child a debatably safe distance from a crocodile though.
I don`t know if it`s real, I found it on google. Call me crazy but I wasn`t suprised when I heard he died. Like that Bear guy learned who got mauled to death, wild animals aren`t pets and they aren`t toys. I saw a show with him once (Steve Irwin), maybe you`ve seen it, where he was grabbing the tails of one of the most poisonous snakes in Australia, and a few times he was almost bitten. It`s like playing with dynamite with the fuse lit. He want`s to do stuff like that, don`t be suprised if he gets blown up.
I'm getting really flamed because I posted that I thought that stunt he pulled with his child was STUPID and needless endangerment of a child. I really enjoyed Steve but didn't care for that one.
I keep hearing that - but it was too close period.
What a sad story. Irwin will be greatly missed.
He certainly lived life to the fullest and was "larger" than life! He will definitely be missed.
RIP Steve (1962-2006)
When Valentino-(Rudolph the actor, not the dress designer :^ -- died the mourners line snaked around the huge NYC blocks....and I believe some women committed suicide....
..for sure, many fainted.
No I wasn't there :) ...but I remember reading about it.
He was a frequent guest in our home, too. (So to speak) We'll miss him, too. May G-d give his wife, children and parents His shalom.
His mother died in a car accident in 2002, but his father apparently is still alive.
