Crocodile Man Steve Irwin Dead
Well I'm sure some people may already know. But Crocodile Man Steve Irwin has been killed in a freak accident while filming a documentary.
Here is a link to the news article I found:

Rest in Peace Steve...

Like I said, I thought he was indestructable. Who in their right mind would go fight a crocodile?

Being Australian, I never really found Irwin to be 'real'. Sure he had enthusiam and dedication, but his over-reactive nature and almost put on Aussie accent just never clicked with me.
I'm upset at his death, as I would never wish death upon anyone, not because he was an 'Aussie Icon'.

More than the chest, or so is suggested (or plainly stated) by most news places.
According to them, it got him in the heart.
During a documentary about demystifying the stingray, ironically enough.
That guy seemed way too alive to be mortal, which is probably why so many people are shocked by his death rather than accepting that it was a professional hazard.
R.I.P Steve
Condolences to Terri and two kids.

Hey show some respect, the mans dead. He left behind his family: his wife, a baby boy and a 8 year old girl. Now I never liked the guy, I still feel sorry for his familys loss.
