I remember one Sunday night I came home from Church and turned on the tv and I saw Steve Irwin for the first time. He was doing that ten deadliest snakes in the world show. Steve Irwin was great. I saw a kid from Australia one day. All I could say to him was have you heard of Steve Irwin and have you heard that song that says something about coming from a land down under. I guess now ever time I hear that song I will think of Steve I rwin.

If there's something that makes you think twice about steppin closer, you get the hell out of there. If you see something that is reptilian in nature and has a mouth bigger than yo head, get the hell out. Why do you think we are so good at the 100 meters?
I'd go for them being "AAAAAAAAARGH!!!!"
It was all preventable. He had to live out his life as a boy with ADHD.

I can promise you this: when the last chapter on this guy is written, it will say that Steve Irwin died from Steve Irwin and not the stingray.

The Discovery Channel Show.....didn't see the first stingray for about a half hour. 13 footer. You know how you tell when your in the water, Chief? You tell by lookin' from the nose to the stinger. What we didn't know was that our ratings had been so crappy, no distress signal had been sent. They didn't even list us overdue for a week. Very first light Chief, rays coma cruisin. So we formed ourselves into a tight group. The idea was, a ray come to the nearest man and that man starts a poundin' and hollerin' and screamin' and sometimes the ray go away......and sometimes he wouldn't go away. Some times the ray looks right into your eyes. A ya know the thing about a stingray....he's got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a dolls eyes. When he comes attcha he don't seem to be livin'.....until he stings ya, and then those black eyes roll over white and then.....ah, then ya hear the screamin.
Mark my words, this stingray will kill again.
I say we get a hydrophobic police chief, a nerd and a grizzled old sea dog to hunt it down.
I'll never put on a show again.
So, 3 men went into the water, 2 come out, the stingrays took the rest, Sept 5, 2006.
Anyway, we delivered The Show."
