R.I.P The Legendary Steve Irwin...... sad sad.......
BRISBANE, Australia(AP) Steve Irwin, the Australian television personality and environmentalist known as the Crocodile Hunter, was killed Monday by a stingray barb during a diving expedition, Australian media reported. He was 44.

I just read this on CNN. Talk about a freak accident for someone who used to "play" with crocadiles. RIP Steve.

Shocking! But I always knew he'd die on the job someday... the guy was just crazy!
Never expected it to be a stingray though. RIP Steve Irwin  |

Just like the scene in star wars in which the ewoks rejoiced the destruction of the death star, so did the crocodiles when Steve died as well.

I am truly saddened by this. It is all over the news, all over the world. A great loss. I feel for his young children. He was someone very special.
