I just heard about him on the news, wasn't too much of a fan, but did watch him from time to time.

I just read that right before I came on.  Wasn't really fan, but that still must be painful to have a stingray barb through your heart.  Didn't dislike him though.     Still have one hope though, Jeff Corwin.

I am VERY saddened by this... I really am. I heard from my parents right after I woke up, nearly burst into tears. He was a good guy, that is for sure...

He was an attrocity to our image... BUT he was a true aussie and a good hearted bloke. He had a passion for life and died doing what he loved. RIP Steve Irwin, all i can say is, CRICKEY, crocs rule! :/

(thnx Xythe)

Very bad luck..... That is nearly impossible to get killed by a sting ray at the heart.

I was also very saddened by this news. He will be missed. He was an important figure in conservation and helped open our eyes to nature and the world with his dangerous work. My thoughts go out to the wife and children he will be leaving behind this sad day.

I wasn't a huge fan of his show, but I watched it occasionally and I liked him.  No one who likes animals that much can be a bad person.  Poor, crazy guy.

I heard just after I watched "Rent" and now I'm depressed. :|

But yeah. Haven't heard the whole story yet, only know that poor Steve is gone. I never really watched his shows, but he was cool. Australians ftw!

Not totally suprising that it was an animal which killed him. I expected it to be a crocodile though. Still, I feel sorry for his wife and kids.

A great shame.... it wasn't even the most dangerous animal he had encountered. Never really saw much of his shows though....

I seriously expected him to go by being killed by a crocodile while saving his kid or something.

He was supposed to be Immortal Man. One of those people that you think "Man, he's going to get it someday," but when it happens you're shocked that it actually happened.

My condolences to all the people he left behind.

Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.
