http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/asiapcf/09/04/australia.irwin/index.html Wow, I couldn't believe this at first. Steve Irwin "The Crocodile Hunter" is actually dead. I guess it was bound to happen eventually, what with him working with all these dangerous animals, but in the back of my mind I always asumed that he would actually survive to retirment. Oh well, Rest in peace man, rest in peace.

This is, indeed, a sad occurence. I have fond memories of watching Animal Planet day after day just to hear his thick accent and see his dangerous encounters with all manner of deadly animals.

Saddest of all, however, is that he left behind a charished family.

For all the overtly dangerous stuff he messed with, he sure got killed by an unlikely animal.

Funnily enough, he tried to prove that the animal that killed him wasn't dangerous.

I wasn't fascinated by his antics in the first place, so I do not find this very shocking. :/

I used to watch the show in which he actually NEVER hunted crocodiles. He was a cool dude, all right...

I just can't believe he's dead. I mean, it was bound to happen, but then again, you always think he'd live forever.

It's funny how the thing he loved most in life killed him.

I wwas going to make a topic just like this, but you beat me to it. It really makes me sad. I really loved his work, and I even concidered going into zoology because of people like him.

NOOOO!!!!! *sniff*

I was,I still am and always will be one of Steve's biggest fans.I just can't believe this happened.

I simply must be hallucinating.

I can't really say 'I didn't see this coming', but I also thought, in the back of my mind, that he'd survive to retirement. :( It's just hard to believe he won't be entertaining us with his his encounters with deadly animals anymore.

When I first heard the news, I thought, "Did I misread that headline?" But, sadly, I didn't. I also put my topic on this in the wrong area so I look like a fool, but that's far beside the point. Hopefully, other entertainers like him will learn that you have to be, I dunno, extra careful near any animal.

I always watched Animal Planet.I still do and always will.Now that this unfortunate incident has happen to Steve.........WAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!I've been watching Steve on TV for a looong time now this happens.............I'm crushed.*SNIFF*

It's his fault he died, so I really can't feel sorry for him.
