Crikey! Steve Irwin

Im sure everyone else like me was shocked and saddened at the tragic news of Steve Irwin's, aka " the crocodile hunter",death this morning. Steve was a committed environmentalist as well as a great entertainer.

It is so ironic that a man who cheated death so often, should be killed by an animal described as the "pussycat of the sea" - in only the third recorded death by stingray in Australia.

He leaves behind his wife Terri and two children, Bindi and Bob
