I suppose this was coming but still, it's sorta sad to see him go. Kinda remarkable how he was able to live after all those close calls but he had it coming to him.

I grew up watching Steve Irwin shows on Animal Planet since about 1994 as a kid.

However, it was bound to happen sooner or later, just not this soon I was hoping, I just wished it was an epic battle with a massive Blue-whale-size crocidile with a dramatic ending.

Rest in peace!

Ah the nutter dies hard.

Respect to the man, he had some crazy guts to do all the mad stuff he used to do. Fair play though and R.I.P dude. Let's hope someone doesn't let that Zoo fall to pieces! :)

R.I.P. This guy made me laugh when he was on tv, and i will miss him for that. He chose a dangerous lifestyle, and unfortunatly the risks proved to great.

I had not realised he had also helped the environment & set up a zoo or similar, i will always miss someone that gave something back to the environment, and cared for animals.

dude some1 died that is not funny to do :mad: i cant believe he is dead he was one of my favorite guys ever he was fun to watch, at least he died quick and without pain that is what i say, then his family gets his body for the funeral, unlike if he was eaten by a crocodile or something else, there would be no body, i just think that he died peacefully this way they said he died with contact of the barb, im sad but thankfull that it was not a to painfull death:(

awwww this makes me soooo sad. Not many people can do or has done what he did. The joy he brought so many people was unbelievable and his courage one to admire. Unbelievable how a stingray could take his life after all the wild life he has come in contact with.

RIP :(

It really really truely is sad.

I read it about an hour ago from this thread like 15 minutes after they (yahoo) posted it up.

I can feel for the guy though, he went doing what he loved. It's just a shame he had to be so young...

:( The world will miss him..

Yes it's a great loss to us all, he was a great ambassador to wildlife conservation and he will be sorely missed.

I have been to he's zoo many times and each time it get's better and better, I dont think it will be the same without him.

When I first saw Steve on the TV show with Jay Leno, I thought, 'what a complete idiot' but now after seeing all the great work that he's done over the year's I think we have lost someone very special and passionate about the enviroment.

My condolance's go out to his wife and family and also to the staff at Australia Zoo,

Rest In Peace Steve.:(
