CRIKEY! THE CROCODILE HUNTER IS DEAD

Steve Irwin aka *Crocodile Hunter* famous for his enthusiatic antics on TV was killed by a stingray barb to the heart while filming at the Great Barrier Reef off Queensland. Efforts to save the 44 year old failed.

Whether he was wrestling an croc or trying to capture a deadly viper, his style of *reporting* was always with humor and at times cocky. Nothing seemed to phase this guy.

He pulled a *Wacko Jacko* stunt in 2004 by dangling his 1 year old son in front of a crocodile, much like you would a chicken. This caused much criticism.

I'm not a huge fan, but I have watched some of his shows and enjoyed his sense of humor. He will be missed.

RIP Crocodile Hunter, you died doing what you loved to do.
