RIP Steve Irwin

OMG! NOOOooo!!!! :cry: I can't believe it. He's one of those people who were so fun to watch because of his pure and sincere love of life that is so hard to find in people. So beautifully innocent like a child discovering new things. Man, this sucks. RIP.

Yes very bad & now I'm going to be severly flamed by all of you but I didn't make those pics,punish the guys who did!!
 
Too young to die like that, I had no idea a sting ray could kill you, and he could have been stuck in the gut or a lung or something; what bad luck to get poked in the heart by a fish.
 
Those pics won't be the last Danny. Morbid humor always comes after a tragic death.

They showed on the news the barb of a large stingray can be nearly a foot long. He got hit in the heart by that, he never had a chance.

Apparently the whole thing was captured by the cameraman and I hope that it never gets leaked to the public.

Crikey, is right! From what I understand the barb tears things up on the way out, too. The sad thing is that it was such a freak accident.

From Wikipedia.com:

Sting Ray- Aggression- "Dasyatids generally do not attack aggressively or even actively defend themselves. When threatened, their primary reaction is to swim away. However, when they are attacked by predators or stepped on, the barbed stinger in their tail is mechanically whipped up. This attack is normally ineffective against their main predator: sharks. Humans are usually stung in the foot; it is also possible, although less likely, to be stung by brushing against the stinger. Contact with the stinger causes local trauma (from the cut itself), pain and swelling from the venom, and possible infection from parts of the stinger left in the wound. Injuries to humans include, but are not limited to: poisoning, punctures, severed arteries and possible death. Fatal stings, such as that which killed Australian naturalist and television personality Steve Irwin in 2006 (sting to the heart), are extremely rare. As of 1996, worldwide known deaths from stingray barb injuries numbered 17. As of 2001, there was only one documented instance where a person survived a stingray injury to the heart. In the case of stings to the heart, it is the site of injury and the nature of the wound that prove to be fatal, not merely the venom of the stingray."
