Oh yes his name is Steve Irwin.
Steve Irwin, the Australian television personality and environmentalist known as the Crocodile Hunter, has been killed by a stingray barb during a diving expedition, media reports said.
Irwin, 44, was filming an underwater documentary on the Great Barrier Reef in north-eastern Queensland state when the accident occurred.
Irwin's death was later confirmed by police in Brisbane.
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation said Irwin was diving near Low Isles near the resort town of Port Douglas, about 1,260 miles north of Brisbane when the incident happened.
A helicopter carrying paramedics flew to the island, but he died from a stingray barb to the heart, ABC reported on its website.
Irwin is famous for his enthusiasm for wildlife and his catchcry "Crikey!" in his television program, Crocodile Hunter, which was first broadcast in Australia in 1992 and has been broadcast around the world on the Discovery channel.
He rode his image into a feature film, and developed the Australia Zoo as a tourist attraction.
The public image was dented in 2004 when Irwin triggered an uproar by holding his baby in one arm while feeding large crocodiles inside a zoo pen. Irwin claimed at the time there was no danger to his son, and authorities declined to charge Irwin with violating safety regulations.
Later that year, he was accused of getting too close to penguins, a seal and humpback whales in Antarctica while making a documentary. Irwin denied any wrongdoing, and an Australian Environment Department investigation recommended no action be taken against him.
He is survived by his American wife Terri, from Oregon, who he married in 1992, their daughter Bindi Sue, eight, and son Bob, who will turn three in December.

That crocodile dude was Steve Irwin, and here down under he is considered a bit of a legend by most of us. Tragically died by a stingray barb being lodged into his heart early this morning whilst filming a conservation documentary.
Steve (the croc hunter) was aged 44 and loved preservation and protection of all animals big and small. his presence will be missed...survived by wife and 2 young kids.....Rest in Peace Buddy

in accordance to the coroner in Joplin, Missouri, maximum twister victims died of blunt tension trauma. the comparable reason for dying is frequently in touch in motorcar crashes. sometimes trauma is to the top (ideas) and infrequently to different needed organs. I d enjoy seeing somebody with direct journey answer this question. I ve regularly questioned approximately human beings falling/leaping from a tall development - of course there is blunt tension trauma or crushing while they hit the floor yet do maximum of them stay on the fall itself or do they bypass into cardiac arrest? I don t think of those questions are grotesque in any respect yet symbolize a organic interest in a extra open society.

Yes, I just read the clip. A very sad day because I enjoyed watching his shows. My sympathy goes out to his friends, collegues, and most important his family.

Yes, I feel so sorry for his wife and kids. =(
I hope one day his children take after their father and carry on his memory by enjoying the same pleasures in life that their father did.

Yeah. He was a fake and got sued and banned from making anymore episodes of his show because he was drugging the crocs and alligators with sedatives. He is a bit fake! He died filming for another program. Sorry for him!!!
