A zillion people sent word that Aussie character Steve Irwin, AKA The Crocodile Hunter, has died. Paul's comments probably summarise it best: Steve Irwin has been killed in a freak accident where a stingray drove its spike through his chest whilst filming a documentary. The guy did wonders for the tourism industry in Australia as well as raise awareness of our wonderful country and the creatures that inhabit it. Almost always a positive bloke and a hyperactive one at that, we all knew he would die some day from one of Australias creatures, but most of us had our money on a Croc doing the job. True Legend!
Love him or loathe him, he was definitely a character and at 44, gone too young. Info here, here, here, here, here and here.
