Yeah, that was so reckless and stupid. Reminds me of Michael Jackson dangling his child outside a 4th floor balcony window.
What these guys would do for publicity . . 😞

I thought he was an open book .. exactly what he appeared to be.
Lot's of energy and very entertaining, to bad he wasn't quite the supernan he thought himself to be.

He never saw himself as superman, but he was raised with snakes, crocs and other not so cuddly animals from birth.
We have cats, dogs and birds as pets, he had crocodiles!
A great Australian has died and the whole world is poorer for it.

I wonder how the baby's mother could let him do that, putting their child's life at risk. He was a fool, thinking he knew what he was doing.
