Y'all know who Steve Irwin is, right? The Crocodile Hunter? (Or rather, who he was)

He passed away early this morning, a handful of timezones away, when he was shooting a segment for a series called Ocean's Deadliest. Apparently, he swam a bit too close to a stingray, and the ray stung him. Normally, stingray injuries are not fatal at all. Somehow, because of his proximity, and the angle of entry, the stingray's tail managed to puncture Irwin under his ribcage, and penetrate all the way to his heart.

Not that you should have any trouble finding the article, but here is a link to the Atlanta Journal Constitution article.

Imagine the ratings that episode of Ocean's Deadliest will get!
Was that in bad taste?

To tell you the truth, I doubt he'd have wanted to go out any other way.

Know What I'm Sayin'??
