Croc Hunter killed by stingray

A real shame. I'm gonna miss that bloke. :-(



"The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again. In one Age, called the Third Age by some, an Age yet to come, an Age long past, a wind rose in the Mountains of Mist. The wind was not the beginning. There are neither beginnings or endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning."

I read about this last night, but I clicked the link again to post it on the RvS forum

When I opened the link, I found this advertisement to the right of the story:

I`m sorry to see him go, his shows were a great way of bringing the environment to people who wouldn`t watch the more serious type of wild life show.
In retrospect, considering the risks he used to take it seems ironic his death was caused by a fairly friendly Stingray, they only use their sting in self defence, so he must have scared it somehow into reacting. Sad Eyes

Funny how Australian members seem to either dislike or have never heard of some Australian TV and Music personalities. Confused

I think he must've been antagonizing it and since he was in water could not react as fast as when he was on dry land. It is a very sad to hear, I enjoyed his shows.

They say he pulled it's tail for the sake of the show...


Freedom - a mountain in the distant sky, love in the grass, birds on the vast plains of the sea...
Freedom - I treasure your name, I love your sweet sound, I smell your dreams.

I see you - when I turn away
I hold you -when my hands are full

Freedom -
Never shall you be more than a name to me

It's the way he passes himself as being an 'Average' Australian that gets on most Aussies nerves.
