I was called into the living room by my husband, only to be devistated at the new of Steve's unfournate accident. My teenage son was in shock as well. Our family spent many evenings together with the Croc Hunter and his family as we watched yet another exciting episode. There is not too many shows on these days that allow a family to watch together but the Irwins succeded at that.Our prayers go out to Terri,Bendi,Bob,Wes, his dad and family and friends. However it wasn't how he died but how he lived. I do believe no man love life more then he did.
There are only tears about this loss....he was a man for me which was 100% in was he did! And this is very rare in this days.I guess he had a fullfilling live, and he dyed as he was living......total surrender to it.I think he liked his way of dead, I could not immagen that he has dyed on illness in a hospital...
good by Steve......and I miss you
I was very distressed when I found out about steve's death, he was a wonderful person and cared so much about even the smallest of animals.
My thoughts and best wishes go to his friends and family at this very sad time and I wish them all well.
Steve lost his life doing something he loved and I respect him for this.
Goodby to the croc hunter your will be forever missed and loved.
Terri don't give up keep doing the goods work, let his name live on through yourself and your children.

what a shock, its completely taken me back. he was an amazing person. my thoughts are with his family abd friends. rip mate
its a tradgedy, mate, i met him. if he knew he was gonna go he would have said " Croc's Rule!"
everyone i knew was in tears
r.i.p steve i thought of this poem just for you and your family
Your short life will be remembered,In poem prayer and song,your tragic death occuredwhy was it so wrong?
The passion you possessed,your respect for every beingso young and full of loveyou helped us into seeing
Though friends and loved ones die,there never really gonea part of us foreversteve, to me you still live on
I am so saddened by the news of Steve's death. His enthusiastic manner of exploring the world of wild animals everywhere was unique and fun to watch. My sympathies go out to his family and hope they can find strength to face each day as it comes and glean solace from knowing that the world is mourning the loss of their very special loved one, right along side of them, in spirit if not physically.
It is sad for the loss of anyone. But can anyone say it was a complete surprise. I mean when I first heard he died I told my grandma "well he probably got eaten by a crocodile". My sympathy goes out to the family, especially the young children. How ironic though that it was caused by a supposedly placid creature to one who was so fearless.
I couldn't believe it when i read it, In the news about Steve Irwin ; the Man who loved animals so much ,died it was a ( shock ) Like when i First heard when Elvis Presley died . My Thoughts go out to his Wife and Children and Family . We will miss You !
The world has suffered a tremendous loss and my heart aches for his family and friends. If there is any solace, it is that he went in a perfectly fitting way. Had he been lost to a croc or shark or dangerous snake, the media and his critics would've had a field day. Instead, he went out in the glorious sunshine, doing what he loved, in a way that no one could have foreseen or avoided - with his family safely away from bearing witness. He was kind and unique and loving and God - deciding it was his time - chose his perfect exit. We are all better for having had him. Watching him, I laughed until I cried. Remembering him, I cry until I can laugh. Cheers, mate. We'll miss you terribly.
I was very shocked to hear of mr Irwinsaccident.I felt the same shock as when princes diana had her accident.I do not think i would have got into watching animal planet and other nature programs had it not been for this man .I will miss him a lot .But lets not forget his wife and kids,hope they will be ok in future.THANKS STEVE IRWIN YOU BROUGHT NATURE BACK TO ME.
omg wot can isay!! i cudnt believe such a thing could happen to the barvest of all 'crocman' as my family called him! i wish we could turn back time! A truly brave, friendly, humurous, hugely loved and admired naturalist will never be forgotten and his work will always reamin in our hearts! why Irwin???
Please show his last documentary on tv, it will atleast ease our pain and make us remeber the good times!!
It is so heartrenching to know he has gone!!!! i will miss him dearly such a honest and genuine man!!
my thoughts are with his family and friends and australia but also to the whole world that he became a part of!! A MAN THAT CAN TRULY NEVER BE REPLACED!!!!
may he rest in peace and in heaven!!!!!!
It's a shame, it really is. Steve was a great man, did great things for the world.My heart goes out to his zoo, staff, friends, and his family.
He brought nature into the hearts of people around the world.
Here's to a man who as immortal and will always be to me.
R.I.P. Steve Irwin
Steve Irwin was an amazing man. I know I will miss him sorely. Like most other people here, I was in complete shock and disbelief when I heard the news. I always looked at him as indestructable. I will always remeber the great things he has done for our world and the animals and people in it.
Rest in peace Steve. We will never forget you.
What a terrible tradgedy to happen to such a wonderful individual. My deepest sympathy goes out to his family and friends. I cannot imagine how painful it is right now for them. I can only say that he was/is..an insperation, and has given us so much of his knowledge and wisdom with which to work with & create a better understanding of all creatures great and small.We are only visitors on this great planet, and although he was here for so short a time,he will be remembered as one of the greatest conservationists of all time, the kindest of men,who only ever gave of himself 100%, who will never be forgotton.
God Bless You Steve! I,m sure you're wrestling crocs in heaven!
I cannot imagine the sadness that Steve's friends and family are feeling now. I only watch him on tv, but I am moved to tears over this loss of such a good, genuine person who has dedicated his life to making life better for all types of animals and educating the public. My prayers and deepest sympathies are with Terri, Bindi and Bob. May they find comfort in the fact that Steve died doing something he was passionate about. Life just won't be the same without his smiling face and aussie accent.
Rest in peace Steve. First John Denver and now you. Our world is a poorer place with the loss of you two. We share a love of nature and animals and were happy you helped us teach our daughters that same love and respect. Terri, Bindi and Bob........we wish there was something we could do to ease your pain. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. A VERY BIG LOSS FOR THE WORLD........
I will always remember you Steve, I will always remember you! Terry, Bindi, Rob, Robert and Wes your loss is deeply felt I feel your pain deep withing my soul am so sorry for your loss. Am sending you a warm and gentle embrace to each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart for I loved and adored him to..... I love you all truly......

It was easy to tell that Steve was a person that loved life, people, the earth, and of course animals. Someone with that much love to give will be missed, yet I truly believe he touched enough people that he will never be gone.
I feel very sad that some-one so popular and unique as Steve as lost his life at the age of 44 and leaving behind his wife and 2 kids! its just so wrong
Deepest condolances extended to the family and friends of Steve Irwin
I am so sad to hear about Steve Irwin's death. He is such a loss, to the world. A man who loved all animals and seemed also to care for the people he met equally.Such a love for life and such a wonderful family. They were always so happy and seeing them on TV could lift the spirits. It breaks my heart to think of Terri, Bindi and Bob losing a husband and father who loved them so much and who they loved, it is hard to imagine that they will ever regain thier joyfulness. My prayers are with both Steve and his beloved family.
The Horizon
I am standing upon the seashore.A ship at my side spreads his white sailsto the morning breezeand starts for the blue ocean.
He is an object of beauty and strength.I stand and watch him until at length hehangs like a speck of white cloud on thehorizon, just where the sea and the skycome to mingle with one another.Then someone at my side says:“There, he is gone.”
Gone Where?Gone from my sight. That is all.He is just as large in mast and hull andspar as he was when he left my side,and he is just as able to bear his load ofliving freight to his destined port.
His diminished size is in me, not in him.And just at that moment when someoneat my side says: “There, he is gone,”there are other voices ready to take upglad and shout:“Here he comes!”

Great people like Steve Irwin always leave a great void in the world, when they die. Steve Irwin was a great Conservationist and Wildlife advocate. He will be sincerely missed.
R.I.P steve!our prays and thoughts go out to family.You were one of a kind...never to be forgotten..R.I.P
a life not to be mourned, BUTcelebrated!!!!!!!!!
A dedication to Steve Irwin (The Crocodile Hunter).
Crocodile Hunter is one of the most favoured nature animals TV series in Malaysia. A simple fearless handsome guy like Steve Irwin has won the heart of many Malaysian, especially among children. His programme has been widely discussed in schools and among wild life lovers. His programmes has sparked the love for wildlife and natural environment conservation. His thick Austarlian slangs and easy handy with reptiles made us all love him. Many wants to be like him.
As one of his fans and on behalf of my family and other fellow Malaysian, I do share the sad moment of the tragedy that cost dearly to us all.
A lesson to be learnt is that wildlife..still very much unknown and unpredictable. While much research has been done on poisonous snakes and land reptiles, we still need to understand the poisonous nature of wild creatures (seafauna and seaflora) of the sea such the stingray, hydra etc. Steve has led way and he has left us a valuable horizon to venture on.
We pray may God placed all his good deeds and soul to be amongst the good soul. The Crocdile Hunter; his unique character will be most remembered by us. Amen.
Mother earth and all mankind is better for having experienced Steve Irwin. His legend will live forever. Crickey! WE LOVE YOU STEVE. And from the bottom of our hearts...Thank you.
I ask god to watch over steve's family and give them strength to carry on. I remember watching steve irwin and i loved him, he was always able to put a smile on my face. he was a great person and was very humble about his fame. Please god..... watch over steve's family and friends. we know he is up there in heaven with you watching down over all the animals and people....may his legacy as a biologist, husband, father,and tv personality be remembered foreverWe love you steve!!!!!!!!!!
In Memory of A Great Man.........Steve Irwin
This world will never have another steve Irwin. It is impossible for us to replace him.....let our prayers be with his family......i just can't beleive i will never be able to watch anything as great as steve irwin as long as i live ...thats how great of a man he was........i hope you are watching down on all of us including all the wonderful animals that you taught us about.....I hope to meet you some day in heaven Steve........Keep watching down on us in the mean time

It feels like a light has gone out on the Planet. SteveO lived naturally what I have to work hard to do - that is, be excited by life, and love your work, and make a difference. He made it seem the most natural thing in the world to do. If I can aspire to that - I shall be grateful. He was the best role model I can think of. Always made us laugh. Felt like we could all be his mate. So approachable.A true angel of light. Greatly missed. Leaves a huge hole in our lives. His heart was the biggest part of him. Can't believe he was struck there.Hope we can carry on his legacy of loving and accepting all creatures on this planet.
I am so so depressed that steve irwin died i pretty much cant live my life anymore unless steve is my guardian angel along with all of my other guardian angels and i hope so much that he has gone up to heaven and that his 8 year old daughter and his wife arent as depressed as me.God bless steve and his family i wish the best for them and hope theyare blessed with prayers.
TODAVIA NO LO PUEDO CREER,QUE SER TAN GRANDE SE HA IDO,TODOS LOS QUE AMAMOS LA NATURALEZA LO VAMOS A EXTRAÑAR MUCHO,OJALA SU FAMILIA ENCUENTRE RESIGNACION PRONTO
So many times I would be watching Animal Planet and holler to my husband"Hey baby the lunatic's on again!" We thought he was nuts but LOVED to watch him. Terri is a strong woman and I am sure she will continue in his efforts to preserve our wildlife and educate our children.
RIP.. My family and I are all so sad about this great loss. We all loved watching Steve on TV. Our thoughts and prayers are with his entire family. My kids came home from school on Tuesday and said that everyone was talking about Steve's death and how sad everyone is. Steve will be missed forever.
What a blow!I am personnally devastated. Even though I only knew him through the media, I feel like I've lost a member of my family.I think that if you could take all that is good about our species and put it into one package---it would be Steve Irwin.My heartfelt condolences to his family.
God bless,

The report of steve's death to me came as a real blow, i mean when i was younger i remember my first time watching his show and i soon got to love it. As said above it feels like a light has gone out in the world as he was such a lovely and bubbly character that no-one really could really say they hated him, everyone loved him. i read in the newspaper the other day that some one had said that they thought steve was invinceable and i thought that aswell. i mean when i watched him i remember him having so many close shaves that after a while i just stopped having those heart stopping moments when steve was almost bite or something like that, and now that he has gone its like really sad as he was such a good person and even though it is the way he wouldve wanted to go, it is quite sudden the way he went. i send my best condolenses to all of his family.
God bless him, R.I.P Steve Irwin

I enjoyed a lot to watch you on TV. My entire family will miss you a lot great Steve.My sincere condolences to his family.
Steve, my family and I will always hold a special place in our hearts for you. My son grew up watching all your shows, and i credit you for his love of animals and wildlife. You have been a wonderful role model for him and a great inspiration for everyone else. You will be so sadly missed. God bless your beautiful family. R.I.P We love you!!
The wohole family,my daughter in particular, have also been keen fans, (I haven't had the heart to tell her the tragic news yet). Steve's programs were compulsary viewing in our household. Our sympathies all go out to the family.
I feel as though I have gone into a real depression and keep having spells of sobbing, and deep sadness since hearing the news, like a close friend or family member had died. I even found myself angry, asking god why.....why him, he wasn't done yet and his kids are so young, they need him. He was one of the most compassionate, kind, big hearted, emotion filled human beings you could come accross. He wasn't just an entertainment personality as many thought of him. The clips that I have seen of him talking about his children, him bursting with pride and emotion are the most touching, and now just heartwrenching because they won't have their special dad anymore. Terri has lost the love of her life and it made me hug my husband more this past week thinking of how I couldn't imagine carrying on if something happened to him. I haven't cried this much or felt so down about someone I never knew since a local solider was recently laid to rest or further back, when Princess Diana died. I even found myself reflecting on the meaning of my own life. Some who read this will think I am going off the deep end, but I also know that many will relate to these thoughts and emotions as well. To the critics or nay sayers, I would ask, how many current role models can you find out there in our government, in your own community, in the entertainment world or in your everyday life who back up what they believe in with true heartfelt passion, and actions? There are some pastors and a handful of other people that I think very highly of but beyond that I can't think of many others as great role models or persons working to make a profound difference on a global level. And yes he made some wrong judgements along the way, haven't we all. I refused to watch him for some time after the baby bob incident but I realize now after watching one of the crocodile diary clips aired this past week that it was not his intention to harm baby bob or to wow the crowd. Let's forgive him....He touched the h
OUR STEVE WILL BE SO DEARLY MISSED BY ALL OF CANADA ,HE BROUGHT US ALL TO LIFE AND CONNECTED US ALL TO THE ANIMAL WORLD,FEARLESS STEVE DID ALL THE THINGS WE ALL DREAM ABOUT DOING AS WE'RE STUCK IN OUR HOMES,HE GAVE IT ALL .ALSO TO HIS BELOVED FAMILY TERRY AND LOVELY SON AND DAUGHTER ,OUR HEART GOES OUT TO STEVE'S FAMILY , REST IN PEACE OUR BROTHER ,SEE YOU THERE.
