He loved Animals, he tried to preserve and educate people on the beauty of them. He shared with all of us the world around us that we overlook everyday because he cared. Your dad only wishes he was half the man Steve was.mnmant wrote:

well no offense but ur dad is the dumbass, steve irwin was the best animal conservationist and animal educationer in the world and for him to die like that sucks. He died doing something he loved and to say he pushed his luck too far is stupid because he was awesome and he got close to them to show us what dangers they possess etc. and with that he has probably saved thousands of lives that you dont even know about. So your dad needs to get his facts straight adn to say something like that about a great man who passed away way to early makes ur dad a jackass.mnmant wrote:

Actually the estimate is 17 (maybe 18 now....) stingray fatalities worldwide. 3 is the number of fatalities for Australia alone.ig88 wrote:

I hope they air the shot and I think I read somewhere in this forum that if Irwin were to die while on camera he wanted the film to be aired. I just dont want to see it. Also I learned they are going to finish the file they were shooting in Steve's honor good for them.Swimmerxc wrote:
The camera man who was shooting the clip he was doing shot some parts of what happened to Steve, he stopped filming when there was blood in the water....
I personally don't want to see it, it would shock me too see such a peacefull and kind man die such a horrible way.
Hopefully Terri won't allow it to be aired
I actually thought that if you read the opening post you would find all of that out, without the need to try and find out what the answers are.ShotYourSix wrote:

It happens all the time, But not resulting in death. The Barb, can reach lenghths of up to 10 inches long. The Ray Steve was filming was a Big one and had a barb well around 10 inches. The barb is fashioned to the ray in a way that its angled, when it jabbed its tail up, it was at such an angle that it pierced under the rib cage(freak accident) thus catching his heart. IF he were Farther in back of the ray this would be a moot point because he would be alive now.SgtSmokem wrote:
A friend of mine had a stingray pierce his foot, he was in shallow water and must have started to step on the thing. Anyway he told me when he went to the emergency room that the doctors were like "what did you say you stepped on?" I guess they had to report it to someone and supposively it is very uncommon for a stingray actually pierce someone with the barb..
RIP Oh Crickie One

not if you're talking about Thomas Pain and his inspiring patriotic literature that fed the flame of the American revolution...cpt.fass1 wrote:
I really did enjoy the croc hunter as many other people did. But the most important thing that I learned from this is animals are dangerous and ones that can kill me shouldn't be fucked with. Other then that I'm a bit upset about the sit, it sucks but it does teach us a valuable lesson. Common Sense has never killed anyone.
thats just a rumor going around, i doubt he pulled it, john stainton was asked that by a CNN news anchor and he said "dont ya hear a lot of rumors and stuff going around on this, its not true, im quite offended that you would ask me that"mporlier wrote:

Yahoo says steve pulled the barb out of his chest before he died.
