Everyone is going to die, some people get headlines when it happens. Question everyone should be asking is what the fuck do headlines matter when you're dead.

I wonder why no one has really brought up the fact that the guy had 2 kids and was still fighting crocs and punching sharks in the eye , I mean dont get me wrong he may of been a great guy but theres a time and place to settle down in life and i think he had hit that time.

His family are just as eccentic as he is. on another note, not only was he raising enviromental issues, he was also providing jobs and training for underprivilaged teens at australia zoo.
How can ppl say he had it coming? he was doing crazy things his whole life, 40+ years, he knew what he was doing it was a FREAK accident.


Am I getting smart with you? How would you know?

The animal that killed him wasn't considered "dangerous." He was filming World's deadliest animals , but they couldn't do it on that day so he was doing something for another person on other sea creatures. It really was a freak accident, but even still when you are dealing with animals that have the potential to kill you all the time, you run that risk. I am also guessing, because the stingray wasn't considered all that dangerous he may have been taking undue risk.

Because people don't usually get SPEARED IN THE CHEST. Most people get grazed by the tail and get lacerations somewhere. Irwin was really unlucky.

but i mean dangerous is dangerous , it dosent matter if you get knicked or full on stabbed there is still the potential for death from it, alot of people dont die from gunshot wounds that dosent mean guns arnt dangerous.

Life is dangerous. This was a freak accident, unless he was agitating the stingray (which wouldn't surprise me).
