i will never forget the image of steve irwin talking to the camera while sharks were in a feeding frenzy all around him while he stood in the water...the guy was a crazy kook but he was fascinating, funny and very entertaining...i kind of felt one day his luck would run out the way he took risks dealing with wildlife but i would never have guessed it would take a stingray to be the culprit....my condolences to his friends and family....he was one of a kind and his legacy will continue as his shows run on animal planet

Steve Irwin gained fame thru his association with crocodiles as The Crocodile Hunter. He was very much loved because of his knowledge in handling the critters and he was Australian. I believe he had a show on the Animal Planet station for a long time, but he was all over the place. He was a true treasure.

He was born and raised in Australia and was an incredible friend of all animals, large or small and he adored crocs!!!!! Look on the Animal Planet website for more info. He was an incredible human being trying to help all living and breathing animals. He has a zoo in Queensland Australia that I am sure his wife Terry will carry on and keep for his namesakes. Bindi his 8 yr. old daughter and Bob who will be 3 in Dec. You knew by watching him he absolutely LOVED what he did!!!!!! IF you watched the interview that he did with Matt Lauer you can see why he did what he did. THAT'S exactly how he was raised!!! He knew EXACTLY what he was doing!!!

Wow where have you been, under a rock? He was the crocodile hunter that died recently. He was on Yahoo's home page.

He was the man who "Heroically" offered his baby to the jaws of a crocodile. C'mon people, if Michael Jackson would've accidentally dropped his baby: maybe someone on the ground below could've caught the child. So why do we treat "Steve-o" any differently?
