Happy Birthday Steve Irwin

Used to watch this guy every time he was on the box.
Always amazed me chasing croc's and deadly snakes in his every day life.
He would have been 57 today if he hadn't been chasing and playing about with Stingrays.

Yes I remember him well LF, fearless but a complete nutcase who was always destined to die young I suppose.

I used to like watching Steve's programmes too. He certainly had an untimely end .

I see his family have a show now, I think it's called "Crikey it's The Irwins" or something. I haven't watched it, it won't be the same.

Actually that is what got me thinking of the guy again I saw Googles picture on my screen.

He was a great crazy character wasn't he.

Re: Happy Birthday Steve Irwin

I think he was more appreciated in the USA than in OZ.
Very showbizzy.
