    I watched Steve Irwin a lot. He was pretty cool. I expect that your husband was too. Sorry for your loss.

    Theres always tragic accidents ravi that happen to the best of the best of anything. Steve Irwin along with other wildlife enthusiasts good as they may be, theres always the risk.

    I cant think of his name there was a real young guy that SOLO on his own would get closer to groups of grizzlies and video them than anyone else. He did it along time and in the end a grizzly took his life.

    The gator boys Paul has been bitten 32 times his partner jimmy 11 times by gators and they are considered some of the best.

    Steve irwin was DAMN good at what he did.

    People who are really committed to their life's work are willing to take risk. Many things that we take for granted in our day to day lives required risk in the process and sometimes that risk resulted in people losing their lives. Those people died doing what they loved to do. Perhaps better than dying old and bitter and never having developed a passion about anything, let alone have risked your life for it.

    That is really profound......I'm going to re-read it lots when times get hard. Thank you, @Dr. Who.

    Ha! - a happy coincidence. I think I learned about putting alligators to sleep by rubbing their bellies from Steve Irwin.
