This just in, realized it after watching Buletin 1.30 on TV3…then quickly searched on the net for further news and found the following:
Television personality and environmentalist Steve Irwin has died after being stung by a stingray while filming off north Queensland.
Known worldwide as the Crocodile Hunter, the 44-year-old was famous for his enthusiasm for wildlife and his catchcry “Crikey!”.
The Queensland Police Service issued a statement saying Mr Irwin collapsed after being stung at Batt Reef, Low Isles off Port Douglas about 11am. He had been filming a documentary.
“Steve was hit by a stingray in the chest,” said local diving operator Steve Edmondson, whose Poseidon boats were out on the Great Barrier Reef when the accident occured.
“He probably died from a cardiac arrest from the injury,” he said.
Police said after he stingray attack, Irwin’s crew called for medical treatment at 11am and the Queensland Rescue Helicopter responded with a doctor and paramedic on board.

Hard to believe it actually, coz that person is well known for his daredevil actions on handling very dangerous animals. What’s more, many had believed that he was dead before this when he was in a hiatus mode for quite a long time from the television show (I bet all of you know, the famous “Croc Files” show, oftenly aired on Animal Planet), but then proved to be otherwise.
