Re: Crocodile Hunter RIP


It is not something I would want to see, but was interested on how the stingray actually managed to kill a man. I didnt think they could kill.. but now I know different.

Re: Crocodile Hunter RIP


Not sure I would watch it either, though morbid curiosity may creep in eventually!

I suppose it may be a little macabre, but yes, I would watch it.

Re: Crocodile Hunter RIP


There is no way I could watch him being killed. I'm all for people understanding the dangers of the wild , how unpredictable wildlife can be and everything, but that is really going a step too far. Sure, they should air the series that he had filmed, but to actually air his death? nooooo, sorry but I won't be watching any of it...

They've set up a fund that will go towards conservation, the zoo and his children. Its called the 'crikey' fund..

My thoughts are with his friends and family. Those poor kids

Re: Crocodile Hunter RIP


yes I think I would watch it - out of curiosity but it would be really sad - he did say it was what he wanted to happen if anything should ever go wrong

Re: Crocodile Hunter RIP


We heard the news in Croatia and watched the interview between Larry King and Steve after the controversial incident involving him holding his young baby son whilst so close to a croc.

Steve was a great character who took so many risks............my thoughts go out to his family.....

RIP Steve........

Re: Crocodile Hunter RIP


Crikey - it's khaki Friday today as they bury him.
Here's a link http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asi...ic/5326286.stm

Guess it's all over as they are so many hours ahead - hope it went well.
