" Croc Hunter " Steve Irwin

Steve Irwin, the ebullient Australian TV personality and conservationist known as the Crocodile Hunter, was killed today by a stingray barb to the heart during a diving expedition.
Irwin, 44, was filming an underwater sequence for a television series on remote Batt Reef off the far north-east coast of Australia when he encountered the ray and was stung at about 11am (0200BST), accoring to a statement from Australia Zoo, Irwin's park.
He is survived by his wife, from Oregon, who was Terri Raines before they married in 1992, their daughter Bindi Sue, eight, and son Bob, who will turn three in December.

Sorry to bring this sad news to you all, if you haven't already heard.
I enjoyed watching his shows.
He will be sadly missed. My heart goes out to his family.
