Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Yeah totally! I researched right now about the odds of that happen, and the fatality probability rate as to actually getting a barb to the heart and it was close to nil! Last big case reported was of a woman in 1938! These are after all docile creatures that are able to protect themselves, I had no idea they were venomous though. He must have been doing something to have provoked such an attack.
Still he was like a real life adventurer you know? He was afraid of nothing. Sad day indeed.

Dude I heard a few hours ago. That sucks. Stingray.

I always thought a croc was gonna eat him.

People at work saying at least he died at the hand of an animal. Like it was how he would have wanted to go.

Crapola. I am sure he wanted to go out OLD.

A sad day, and he leaves a wife and two young children. As Tetra says, there was a risk in what he did and Steve Irwin was well aware of that risk.
