I dont know how many people outside of Australia know of him.

R.I.P Crocodile Man

he did so much crazy shit i always thought he would live forever

all the australian greats are going...Big kev...now Steve Irwin!

I JUST FOUND OUT
someone told me

I was like
OMG WTF

I just saw him on t.v yesterday
thats so effing weird.

My sister just told me I'm in shock coz I see him on tv all the time........it was a sting ray though the chest << thats what my sister said he was filming a doco.......they probably have it on film ......and his poor wife and bindie .......jesus.
I know everyone poked fun that he was a bit nuts but he did really care about helping the wildlife of Australia
Is big Kev dead I was wonder were the feck he was!

Arrgh!!!! Noooo!!!


Oh thats so sad!!! He seemed so fearless, too. Poor guy...


RIP Steve.

aw.. liked him

Yes Big kev is dead

Its sp sad because his wife is on a trek in Tasmania and cant be contacted

how sad!

I just told dad he was shocked I think most australians though he was like un killable .........and by a sting ray jesus ....poor Terry I really hope she keeps o=up the conservation work

I used to watch his show all the time, too.

he was such a nice guy when i met him last summer on my Aus trip

You met him??
Yeah, he seemed really nice to me.


And he's left a wife and two kids.

ya. he was doing something at the Billabong San. when we were passing through. I got him to sign my map (lol, it was all i had with me) he was really cool and fuckin hilarious

^Yeah he seemed it...

This is so sad I thought it might've been a joke or prank or something. Poor guy. He was a funny guy I remember watching him on Conan and Jay he was very good at what he did while still being outrageous and hilarious. I still can't really believe it.

Oh this is so sad . I thought the guy was a bit embarrassing... but I still couldn't help but like him. His poor family, he was so young .

Yeah, we were watching "Ready Steady Cook" and a news thing was scrolling across the bottom of the screen. The last time that happened Princess Diana had died.

Yeah, I'm with you Ali. He was kind of embarrassing and a lot of the things he did were kinda "unnecessarily dangerous"... His poor family. His wife didn't even know about it for a while and only just got contacted in Tasmania. It's horrible.

I actually thought he was embarresing too, but nevertheless it was hard not to like him. He obviously loved what he did.

Yeah, he was a good guy. And he did a lot for animals and the environment.

He really seemed like such a sweet guy, that's such a shame . I just found out too. I never thought the wild would mark the end of that guy.

I still cant believe it

Imagine what it would of been like to be alive when John Lennon died...Or Kurt died

Well...I was alive when Kurt died but i didnt who he was.

Its shocking.

NO WAY!!!! thats sucks, poor guy he was so young too..man i liked that crazy son of bitch

Oh! Im from France but still... I had heard of him and I saw him on tv once or twice... I think they said he was quite famous in Australia and all that... Yeah he seemed kinda kind, thats really sad! How old was he?

He was only 44.

i am so sad about his death. ive been watching his documentaries and shows since i was little and it is just such a shock.

hes left behind 2 kids too.

Oh my! Thats almost the age of my own dad!! Thats horrible!!

That's pretty sad actually. Hell I'll even use an emoticon

I know...it really is sad. He's one of those guys who you would think is made of steel. I always thought it would happen someday though

;_;

That's really sad.

I'm still in shock about this.

Couple of years ago somebody told eveybody that he died. Of course it was a hoax. But now he's like really dead. . he was a cool guy

My mom told me this morning.

So sad. I didn't believe it at first, but there was an article on yahoo.

yeah i know. There won't be new episodes on animal planet

i cant find the picture of me with him. fuck!

ohhh I just saw this on the telly and ran over to the forum

yeah it's sad

he was my hero

no seriously

I always wanted to meet him and such
I always found his shows so entertaining

R.I.P steve


i still cant believe it ..i mean i was expecting a croc but a stingray...

he was awesome the fact that he can work with those huge snakes and such and still be like totally mellow about it was great to watch..

and his wife and his kid, and hid dog

this really really sucks

now I have to watch all his rip offs

won't that make you sad. You'll always have in mind he's not around anymore

yeah but I have to get in my fix of people diving in holes to retrieve poisonous snakes and such

You could just you know, marry Ryan.

Mr. Irwin, you shall be missed.

awwwwwwwwwww

I miss him so much already

it was on the news now

his poor wife...

That sucks. Sting rays? That is crazy.

His family and friends have my deepest sympathy.

So sad. ;--;

its really sad, shocking & strange

i still cannot believe it

RIP...


And, who's Big Kev or whatever?
