He's obviously fucked up (in the head).
Kinda scary there are tons more like him in the world.

Stop it You Monkey :)

Does acting like a donkey run in the family, i'm pretty sure it does.

He was a dumbass and he died a well deserved cowardly death. He was gonna get it one day, he pushed everything to the extreme, well deserved.

I don't know why you would call it a cowardly death. Steve Irwin definitely has more balls than you do. Even you got to admit that. Yes, he was a risk taker and lived his life on the edge. It was his job, it's what he loved to do. In the end, his death was caused by a judgement in error.
 
steve irwin did what he did, to raise awareness for animals most just saw as cold and dangerous. he helped to make us all aware of the other side of crocs, snakes, lizards, etc;, and that they really are not the menace we make them out to be, that they do not really attack us humans unless we infringe on their territory. how many times did you see steve risk his own life and limbs, to help a distressed animal?

he died a young 44, but i venture to say he did and saw more at his age, than most of us here will see in our lifetimes. thank you for your efforts steve, rest in peace, and my thoughts to your wife, two children and your family and friends.

to the wanker slagging steve and calling him a coward...what is exactly you do for a living? what do you contribute to humanity, besides wasting air? takes alot of class to slag a man when he has died. not having the balls to say something to a man to his face, when he was alive, that is called cowardice!

I would add that I would prefer to living like Irwin rather than living to a ripe old age but not accomplishing much....

But you have to be fast and intense to do that.

His affection for reptiles, animals.......all creatures (except stingray of course) earned him their respect

C'mon now. I'm sure he had enormous respect for the various wild creatures he encountered. From their point of view it was probably more like, "who the fuck is this, and how can I get away?".

Actually most of the creature were saying "leave me alone, let me get away or I'll have to fight you." You could see all the time the animals he handled showing flight, defense and threat behaviours... and I would point those out to my nieces and nephews and say "when an animal does that it means it's upset and you should leave it alone."

I stand corrected. You said it better. Most of them would have likely wanted to take his head off. If we really cared about wildlife we would give them enough space to exist and flipping leave them alone.
