Steve Irwin (the crocodile hunter) has died after been stung by a Stingray whilst diving in Australia.
I used to love watching him, he do soooooooo much for animal welfare, he will be sadly missed.
He adored his wife and 2 children and i can't imagine how they feel right now. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.

How ironic that he was killed by one of the most gentle creatures in the sea. I wouldnt have been all that surprised if he had been bitten by a snake or became dinner for a croc.
