We knew it would happen... HE knew it would happen... Steve Irwin died today after being stung through the chest by a stingray (ironically on a taping for a show "Deadly Sea Creatures")... many people in Australia were devastated by this news... what are your words?

"Take a look at this little beauty"
I'm just surprised it wasn't a croc or a snake.

Not just australia........all over the world people are sad to hear of his passing. His vivaciousness was unmatched and he was a source of inspiration for all nature lovers .

To make things even worse, it wasn't even for his Deadliest Creatures show. The taping that was scheduled for that project was actually cancelled due to bad weather. So, he decided to go tape some footage for a new show he was working on that was made for and inspired by his daughter.
If that isn't going to cause a guilt trip, I don't know what will. RIP Steve, I grew up with you and I'll certainly miss your charisma.

Yes, poor generations coming won't get to grow with him as we did (well, except reruns, of course)
I even joined the "RIP Steve Irwin" group on facebook.
I remember one of my friends dressing up in khakis with a blow-up croc pool toy and was Steve Irwin for halloween..

It really is depressing, and kind of surreal (Amy's post 900 is the one above Geek's post)
