I see Steve Irwin has wound up his last wild creature.

RiP. The world will be the poorer.

Nod.

I'm surprisingly gutted by the news.

Whilst I am dimly aware there are those who objected to his methods
and presenting style, I don't think anyone can doubt his devotion,
energy and enthusiasm for all forms of conservation and wildlife.

Sad day.

Yeah, the bloke was mad as a fish but hope that his passing was instant and
without suffering, at least he was doing what he does best at the time.

For those wondering Steve Irwin is the block from Croc Hunter / Files. The
Ozzy with a croc. Stingray got the better of him whilst filming a
documentary, though Steve did sail close to the wind on many many occasions.

May he RIP and his family go on to uphold Steves love of nature and bringit
to our livingrooms.

Real shame, the number of times i've thought about it today. When Diana
died i couldn't work out what the fuss was, as all she did was flounce
around trying to **** the royal; family off.

Steve Irwin, what a top bloke, who actually went out there and did
stuff, full on.

Ripper!!!!!!!

Dave

 
Have to agree with everything said, he was a top bloke, I used to love watching his stuff, what a life though eh? he did what he loved doing, but it's sad for his family and his kids who are so young and'll never get to know their Dad.

speared through the heart by a stingray might not be instant, but I doubt it
took long.

Did an awful lot for landmine clearance and shattered few tabloid myths
regarding AIDS. Though I must admit the national response to her death
was a bit OTT IMHO. The death of Ronnie Barker on the other hand...

Steve who? The clips I've seen he's just a tosser exploiting animals to
make himself a tidy bob or two.

I never really liked his programmes either although it's a shame when
anyone gets killed way before their time.

Doesn't stop the gags though;

He also seems to have taken lessons about how to handle his baby from
Michael Jackson!

You could argue that Diana made more than a tidy Bob or two exploiting
the British public in general.

The victims of Land Mines have my full sympathy but I think she could
have done alot more for mine clearance, like jumping one, just my
opinion.

I think that Steve Irwin did alot more than just jump on a couple of
crocs if you read around abit.

Dave

P.S. Fully agree with you about Ronnie Barker though.............

When I first saw this guy - I thought "What a nutter" - then I started to
see what a skill he had in his methods of presentation which, whilst not
perhaps agreeing with everyone's taste, were bound to keep you focused on
his programme in case you missed something. He is like another "Fred
Dibnah" http://www.fred-dibnah.co.uk/biog.htm if you dont know who I mean
who had an altogether different style of keeping the audience "tuned" but in
some ways, they were similar.

Can you imagine the scene in heaven if the two of em meet?

God rest both their souls and may I particularly extend my condolences to
Steve Irwin's family.
