Prime Minister John Howard, who hand-picked Irwin to attend a gala barbecue to honor President Bush when he visited in 2003, said he was "shocked and distressed at Steve Irwin's sudden, untimely and freakish death."
quite freakish in that they were expecting him to be maimed by a croc or swallowed by a killer whale
wow that seriously sucks for his family, does he have an under 6 son?
I guess i'm not really surprised though... he always did some seriously dangerous stuff for the T.V. Even though it was a freak chance the stinger went into his heart, something like that was bound to happen... Poor guy.

RIP, Steve.
44 is way too young.
True enough...but no one can say the guy wasn't asking for it!
Still, it's a lost to adrenaline junkies everywhere.

Yep, he is survived by a wife and 2 kids. His daughter is 8, and his son is under 2.
Yes, that was his son. Although 'dangled' is a bit of a stretch. Steve was holding him while feed the croc.
Not like when Micheal Jackson actually dangled his infant son over a balcony!
