yeah just saw this,

guess with the stuff he did there was always high risk involved. Still a bit of a shock.

bit random... poor wife and kiddies ! RIP.

http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/sto...005961,00.html

"It is believed Mr Irwin's American-born wife Terri is trekking on Cradle Mountain in Tasmania and has yet to be told of her husband's death."

thats real nice... tell all of australia.. but dont tell his wife/... youd think the media could hold off for 24 hrs or something till they get hold of his wife .. scavengers.

I loved his doco's. Total loss for Australia and the rest of the world. Poor wife and lil tikes. Im sure they'll organise something in his honour...some sort of protected wildlife sanctuary...RIP and condolences to their family...

he was a bit of a character, but he actually use the money he earns to run the zoo. but i suppose he knew the risks of what he does for a living. and i liked his shows.
