    It is sad, but don't you think he had some sort of death wish his entire life? Croikey, look at the teeth on that one! They really hate it when you do this to them!

    Yeah I guess he died enjoying himself. Not many people can say that.

    He died doing what he loved to do. How many people's obituaries have that in them? However, you do have to admit - he was NUTS!

    We enjoyed watching the shows and hope that Animal Planet does some kind of tribute show.

    Did you know those stingrays can have a barb as long as 10 inches? If that slips between a rib you have a nasty wound - and being underwater you have a lot of water under pressure flooding that chest cavity.

    On the track, I am fearless.
    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    LATEST: The footage of late Australian naturalist STEVE IRWIN being killed by a stingray could be shown on TV. Charismatic Irwin, dubbed the Crocodile Hunter after his internationally acclaimed TV show, died yesterday (04SEP06) while diving on Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Irwin was filming for a new documentary when he lost his life, and his cameraman shot the moment when the stingray's barbed tail stabbed the legendary conservationist through the heart. The tapes are currently being held by Queensland police - but Irwin's family are determined to respect his last wishes and allow the harrowing footage to be broadcast. Irwin once insisted, "My number one rule is to keep that camera rolling. Even if it's shaky or slightly out of focus, I don't give a rip. "Even if a big old alligator is chewing me up I want to go down and go, 'Crikey!' just before I die. That would be the ultimate for me." An insider tells British newspaper the Daily Star, "This is exactly what Steve would have wanted. He knew the dangers and was totally up for the cameras to get everything."
