But they've been playing old footage and interviews tonight and the guy was bloody hilarious. And extremely passionate.And the worst part, he actually was making a diference when it came to wildlife. He was buying land all over the world to protect it, and raising money and teaching awareness. the guy was always working to improve the world. Hopefully that all continues on in his name.
Not only the work he did, but also the amount of time and effort he put into making people realise how important family is, and the love he had for his own, he put that above all else. Thats a massive blow there, when you see the past footage of him talking about how much he loves his family, theres no way a guy like him should ever have gone out so early in his age, especially with young kids he'll never get to see grow up. There arent many people like him that are just so honest, and like you said, passionate about life and the environment.

Eh, actually everyone ends up dead, regardless of whether they are a goody or a baddy.
Aside from that, the dude had balls. I should know, I've got a big set of my own. Also, people always recognise their greatest assets in others who have the same assets...But this is about Steve, and the guy was cool. Although, I always thought his wife's head was a little too square...Maybe something for someone to look into...
Keep it crazy, Steve. Steve.

Yeah, like tomorrow he'll be alive and all 'Crikey, that little bugger nearly took my life! Gotta watch out for those barbs, they'll give ya a nasty sting alright!' 🙁
I still cant fully comprehend it, its so weird when you see him on tv all the time and hear about him, then you read he's died, and wont be around anymore 🙁

Check out the end of the third paragraph. That was fast.
Are you envious of the dead? perhaps a ban would put you on the path to joining him, even if you weren't just a minute portion of the man he was!
I am an Australian and I always thought of Stevie as a weirdo, but I was truly shocked and sadened by his passing, they say that the good die young, Stevie was far too good a man for this world...
So my words are thus; Rest in Peace Steve Irwin, you were the heart, soul and the voice of charity and kindness...
You shall be greatly missed! 🙁
Here's to you buddy, good as gold mate!

People on the internet hate me? Imagine my humiliation. Step out in the sunlight you ass-clown, there’s a real world that you might want to see someday.
