Steve Irwin was such a remarkable human being. His tragic and premature death was a tremendous loss to the entire world, but most especially to the animal kingdom.
I've watched dozens and dozens of videos about Orangs and I've NEVER seen an adult get that close and affectionate with a human. Steve was a 1 in a million guy, a very special person!!!
I spent my teenage summers staying up late into the night watching marathons of his shows on discovery. What a great human, great teacher. RIP Mr Steeve
@@bosesebi6685 Well you're a piece of shit then. He never did anything like that to animals either so you're a liar too.. Go be a miserable troll somewhere else, moron..
The direct translation of them is "forrest people" Old colonial explorers had been suprised by these gentle souls. I think Steve knew of their reputation. He clearly was not afraid of approaching what could be a super agile killing machine. But to be looked at and quickly judged as friendly by a wild animal. A mother no less. That is unprecedented.
Yes it is and they are lovely, gentle , clever animals,my favourite of the great apes! They must have very strong intuition as well for this mammy to trust Steve so much- she could sense he was safe to have her baby around!
I have also heard Orangutans referred too as the Orange Men of Borneo. Either way they are the best of us. After all we do share 97 percent of our DNA with then.

My boy Steve kept me company thru countless school school nights. He taught me to have a respect for all animal life. He inspired me to give up hunting, which I finally did at the age of 22. I sold my shotgun and bought my first camera. That was the beginning of my love for wildlife photography. Thank you Steve
+LilMOMMAson I can respect your decision, and while I'm a HUGE fan of wildlife/animals, hunting is unfortunately necessary, especially when it comes to certain types of animals. For example, White-Tail Deer have to be hunted due to exploding numbers here in New England. There are soooo many WTD and because of an ever-increasing number of humans and encroachment into more lands, that is a VERY bad combination, which results in gov't officials unanimously encouraging hunting (over a finite hunting season) so that it ultimately saves the WTD and humans (from accidents, deer running out into highways, etc.). Besides, I only hunt what I plan on eating. I DETEST trophy hunting for tigers, rhinos, etc. I find the latter 100% reprehensible.
Slyest Trash although our physical bodies may turn to ash, our consciousness(energy) never dies. Energy does not die, it transforms. And that energy merges with everything that is in the cosmos✨ RIP
Steve was an amazing man. He truly loved these animals. He cared and it showed. He was an expert with crocs, snakes, lizards, just about anything on land. Unfortunately, he was out of his element in the ocean. All his skill, knowledge and super quick movements, that always helped him avoid injury in the past, didn’t work in the ocean. A terrible end for a good man. RIP
Me, too. I was shocked the day he died. I was camping and away from TV, when a friend called to give me the bad news, because she knew I was a big fan.
Duffy D. sympathy was never just a human thing. if you havent spent enough time around animals yourself to realize this, theres plenty of studies done on large mammals documenting their cognitive abilities, which includes the ability to empathize. elephants, giraffes, horses, dolphins, monkeys, etc... give animals more credit! humans are not as smart as we think we are lol.
We will never have someone who truly loved animals this much, simply because steve was around in a time when the only reason to love animals, was to love animals. Not for clout or likes. We miss you, steve. You inspired so many of us to truly love nature and animals. Rest in Paradise 🖤
I mean to be fair, that was a similar experience to the one I had when I had the chance to get close to our closest cousins in the animal world. My local Zoo has the largest ape enclosure in the world, and I visit there fairly often because its such a calming atmosphere. I remember just the other day, I was sat in absolute shock watching a Bonobo maybe 2 feet away from me on the other side of a pane of glass using the reflection in it to locate and pull a splinter out of his lip, and I... That made something with me that I cannot quite explain. I mean you always hear that the (other) Great Apes are very human in their skills and looks, but seeing it taking place inches away in real-time is another story entirely. It profoundly impacts how you see humanity as a concept, and even apart from deeper philosophical epiphanies, in my opinion, it just causes this odd, warm, fuzzy feeling - not unlike love - when you realize that you aren't just some special individual looking at nature, but that you are, indeed, part of nature, and that you share a common ancestry and most of your genetics with these gentle giants. Very Humbling, in a good way.
The fact that Orangutan women will be a lonely widows when the child has grown up as Orangutan males are solitary beings so literally she's looking for a husband 😅
Steve cemented my belief that this isn't humanity's world anymore than it was the dinosaurs and that all life is equally given and taken...his lifes message was one of compassion but his final lesson was one of respect..he really was the best example of we all could be if we opened our eyes a little wider.
No one could ever bet steve. No generation before or after. He had every rational person on his side. Farmer, regular ole meat eaters, animal loves and the like. It was truly inspiring how he brought everyone from all political spectrum together. Something the modern peta movement should take notes on.
This is really emotional The mother orangutan knew that Steve was such a wonderful & loving person and that’s why she allowed her baby so close to him ❤ what a beautiful memory for his family. RIP Steve literally the entire planet misses you x
"The purest man who ever lived". That's one hell of a statement, and also a bizarre remark. Have you met every single human being that has ever lived??!!
I’m indonesian.. I cried seeing Steve so close to the sumatera orangutan Steve is considered a human who won't hurt them ... This is a natural orangutan instinct.. Until now there are still people in my country hurting orangutans and even hunting them ... Orangutans as native Indonesian animals should be guarded and protected by all Indonesian people .. please don't destroy their forests or their homes .. 😭🙏
I've watched a lot of orangutan videos recently, and I've fallen in love with your beautiful country and culture. It breaks my heart to see the permanent damage inflicted on your jungles for short-term profit.
yeah, it's a shame seeing the orangutans taken from their mothers. This might be biased since I am an malaysian but I think orangutans are the most friendliest wild animal
His voice brings back so many memories, kinda makes me cry. But it makes me happy knowing how his kids are just as full of love as he was. You were an inspiration Steve C:
We were all angry when Steve died, we felt he made a rookie mistake but we all make mistakes and his legacy saves the lives of many of our fellow species.
As someone that idolized him as a kid and got to meet him personally i don't think I'll ever be able to forget him, he just oozed compassion and love for all living things, we should all try and be more couscous of the environment so we don't let him down
@NPC #40249 like i said though i was a kid, and I'm sure no matter what kid they grew up idolizing someone despite what they believe in, wheather it be someone as a father figure or someone whos morals aline with yours, trust me these days i respect him more than anything but either way I'm agnostic, so to me i was really hoping this wouldn't become a religious debate of some sorts, so as much as i dislike the other guy i don't see why my first comment warranted a response when i clearly said i was kid, not everything has to be about religion, i feel like if thats what you believe then good for you but i don't know why me saying we should be trying to protect our environment and leave a smaller carbon footprint triggered something religious to come out, cause to me its like the point that we should be more mindful of our planet got lost and everyone chose to focus on something religious, this is why I'm agnostic, cause picking sides is not good to me, its either left or right, good and bad, nothing is as black and white and the picture that either side tries to understand is far broader than what anyone can paint, so while everyone is worrying about whos wrong or right the actual picture gets lost in the grey no one dares to cross into, maybe everyone needs to take a step back and reflect on whats really important, cause if we focus too much on who believes in what and whos on whos side your childrens children will be living in a wasteland, so focused on where WE go when your gone no concern about where the future generations are going, condemned to suffer for all our "sins"
This man in a true LEGEND. His compassion inspired an entire generation to learn about and care about creatures they otherwise would never have known about. RIP King.
@Blindi there is a 6th sense though it's instinctual based on external ques, processed in the subconscious. It's that uneasy feeling you get around someone you get a bad vibe from, it's body language and micro facial expressions mainly but it's very real. It evolved in us to keep us alive
Truly a heart warming moment an animal that can sense danger from miles away and will give life and limb for their little ones feels such a sense of calm from Steve that she is not only willing to interact with him but to tell her baby this human is alright and safe. Steve was truly a special one in a million person and is still missed today but not forgotten.
I vividly recall hearing the news that day. Steve-O had innocent way of viewing beauty in all creatures.. crocs, snakes, insects.. What a tremendous loss for his family, and for the world
I truly miss his soul, our world just never was the same after losing him. I have spent my entire life helping any animals wild or not and every time I think of Steve.
9 yo Army Full General Of Florida Regiment that is because unlike humans, non-human animals can read others and sense their energy and know... humans have repressed that basic ability
Don't think I've watched a Steve Irwin video for over a decade...watching this clip was genuinely emotional, look how happy and in awe he was! I teared up a bit towards the end. The man may be gone, but his work, influence and memory still shine bright.
Arach instinct and chemicals...that influence exhibited behavior and movements...that can in turn be assessed as dangerous or non-threatening. So yes, you can sense it.
That look on Steve’s face. You can tell how badly he wants to touch that baby, but knows that he can’t. Even when the mom came over and began touching him.
The world is a lesser place without Steve Irwin in it.
Jax The Reaper but a greater place from having had him in it. RIP Steve!
I think we all died a little inside when we heard he had passed
It is indeed, RIP Steve Irwin.

My boy Steve kept me company thru countless school school nights. He taught me to have a respect for all animal life. He inspired me to give up hunting, which I finally did at the age of 22. I sold my shotgun and bought my first camera. That was the beginning of my love for wildlife photography. Thank you Steve
LilMOMMAson Thank YOU!
+LilMOMMAson I can respect your decision, and while I'm a HUGE fan of wildlife/animals, hunting is unfortunately necessary, especially when it comes to certain types of animals. For example, White-Tail Deer have to be hunted due to exploding numbers here in New England. There are soooo many WTD and because of an ever-increasing number of humans and encroachment into more lands, that is a VERY bad combination, which results in gov't officials unanimously encouraging hunting (over a finite hunting season) so that it ultimately saves the WTD and humans (from accidents, deer running out into highways, etc.).
Besides, I only hunt what I plan on eating. I DETEST trophy hunting for tigers, rhinos, etc. I find the latter 100% reprehensible.
I Agree ^
We need more people like you. And Steve .
That’s awesome ❤️
To all the animals lost in the fire, you’re with this man now, and he’ll take good care of you😢
Damn thats deep
Ooh Gosh, that's so beautifully said..... Thank you, Gabrielle!
Slyest Trash although our physical bodies may turn to ash, our consciousness(energy) never dies. Energy does not die, it transforms. And that energy merges with everything that is in the cosmos✨ RIP
Gabrielle Jarmin don’t think animals read you tube comments to be honest lol 👍🏻
what religion is that?
I love that the animals can even sense Steve’s true love and passion for them ❤️
Steve was an amazing man. He truly loved these animals. He cared and it showed. He was an expert with crocs, snakes, lizards, just about anything on land. Unfortunately, he was out of his element in the ocean. All his skill, knowledge and super quick movements, that always helped him avoid injury in the past, didn’t work in the ocean. A terrible end for a good man. RIP
Orangutan: examining mode
Steve: *stress level 99%*
Man I miss this guy
Me, too. I was shocked the day he died. I was camping and away from TV, when a friend called to give me the bad news, because she knew I was a big fan.
He pushed a bit too far.
yeah same, i really like to watch these vids, miss you steve irwin
1976 bronx ..I was going to say the same thing. A piece of the world died when he left us.
1976 bronx you said it man.. Only the good.. Only the good.
One of the best men who ever lived. If more people were as compassionate and honest as him we'd be in a better place in the world.
The baby is showing signs of being shy it’s so sweet!! They are so human😭 We miss you Steve! ☀️
My girlfriend just told me “take comfort when your animal passes away. It means that Steve Irwin is there owner now”
That’s really beautiful, thank you.
I don't think animals should be owned by humans. Also, heaven is not real.
@@Laszlo5897 explain why Humans own animals and why heaven is not real

@@Laszlo5897 Hell is real for you then cuz that's where you'll be going. :)
I guess the animals have the instinct to detect bad and good humans.
I know dolphins can, but i don't know about (great) apes.
Alot of animals can do that.
I guess sympathy isn't just a human thing.
They definitely do 👍
Duffy D. sympathy was never just a human thing. if you havent spent enough time around animals yourself to realize this, theres plenty of studies done on large mammals documenting their cognitive abilities, which includes the ability to empathize. elephants, giraffes, horses, dolphins, monkeys, etc... give animals more credit! humans are not as smart as we think we are lol.
We will never have someone who truly loved animals this much, simply because steve was around in a time when the only reason to love animals, was to love animals. Not for clout or likes. We miss you, steve. You inspired so many of us to truly love nature and animals.
Rest in Paradise 🖤
Not just lived, but respected
Didnt expect to be crying my eyes out but here we are. Love you forever, Steve. Thanks for being a shining light.
2:21 “I’ve fallen in love with another woman” lol he’s so adorable and innocent and has such a kind heart.
miss him a lot😭
I love how she sideeyes him like "OH. YOU'RE MARRIED. OH."
She has it all
I mean to be fair, that was a similar experience to the one I had when I had the chance to get close to our closest cousins in the animal world.
My local Zoo has the largest ape enclosure in the world, and I visit there fairly often because its such a calming atmosphere.
I remember just the other day, I was sat in absolute shock watching a Bonobo maybe 2 feet away from me on the other side of a pane of glass using the reflection in it to locate and pull a splinter out of his lip, and I... That made something with me that I cannot quite explain.
I mean you always hear that the (other) Great Apes are very human in their skills and looks, but seeing it taking place inches away in real-time is another story entirely. It profoundly impacts how you see humanity as a concept, and even apart from deeper philosophical epiphanies, in my opinion, it just causes this odd, warm, fuzzy feeling - not unlike love - when you realize that you aren't just some special individual looking at nature, but that you are, indeed, part of nature, and that you share a common ancestry and most of your genetics with these gentle giants.
Very Humbling, in a good way.
The fact that Orangutan women will be a lonely widows when the child has grown up as Orangutan males are solitary beings so literally she's looking for a husband 😅
We could live ten lifetimes and not have this kind of experience. He lived life to the fullest, and then some.
Zeppelin Fan Steve loved nature and it loved back
Dillon Ohlemiller
Too bad stingrays hug with a two foot spine.
Steve cemented my belief that this isn't humanity's world anymore than it was the dinosaurs and that all life is equally given and taken...his lifes message was one of compassion but his final lesson was one of respect..he really was the best example of we all could be if we opened our eyes a little wider.
Who the baby orangutan?
@@vote4ulvio Barron.
This man wasn't just taken from us, he was taken from Nature as well.
I miss Steve sooooooo much, he truly was a one of a kind!!! 🥰
When he said "an experience I'll take with me for the rest of my life" my heart sunk a little bit not going to lie...
SAME T_T
The Messiah Me too
Rest in peace
The Messiah mine too it broke my heart into pieces 💔
Me too! 💔
Let’s be honest here , we learned more about wildlife growing up from Steve Irwin than anyone else,
John reese Absolutely!
I come from the UK, we have Attinbourgh.
Yes he is the one that showed me the importance of conservation and respecting the world and all of its inhabitants.
No one could ever bet steve. No generation before or after. He had every rational person on his side. Farmer, regular ole meat eaters, animal loves and the like. It was truly inspiring how he brought everyone from all political spectrum together. Something the modern peta movement should take notes on.
Uh...you seem to have forgotten the legend that is David Attenborough...
This is really emotional
The mother orangutan knew that Steve was such a wonderful & loving person and that’s why she allowed her baby so close to him ❤ what a beautiful memory for his family.
RIP Steve literally the entire planet misses you x
The purest man who ever lived. This guy truly loved nature, he was genuinely good
"The purest man who ever lived". That's one hell of a statement, and also a bizarre remark. Have you met every single human being that has ever lived??!!
@@kingy002 you gotta be a bit dumb to take everything so literally
I'm guessing there were a lot of animals waiting at the gates when he died.
Well said.
That's beautiful, I truly hope this is what happened
great, thanks for making me cry 😭
Meester Writer . That’s a really nice sentiment.
Bro i got the chills when reading this
I’m indonesian..
I cried seeing Steve so close to the sumatera orangutan
Steve is considered a human who won't hurt them ...
This is a natural orangutan instinct..
Until now there are still people in my country hurting orangutans and even hunting them ...
Orangutans as native Indonesian animals should be guarded and protected by all Indonesian people ..
please don't destroy their forests or their homes .. 😭🙏
Wish i could give you a million thumbs ups!
I've watched a lot of orangutan videos recently, and I've fallen in love with your beautiful country and culture. It breaks my heart to see the permanent damage inflicted on your jungles for short-term profit.
Well said mate, they are truly one of your nations greatest natural symbols!
yeah, it's a shame seeing the orangutans taken from their mothers. This might be biased since I am an malaysian but I think orangutans are the most friendliest wild animal
Yes. We need to stop buying products made from palm.
His voice brings back so many memories, kinda makes me cry. But it makes me happy knowing how his kids are just as full of love as he was. You were an inspiration Steve C:
The emotional part is seeing Steve Irwin and realizing how much we all still love and miss this man.❤
When your mom drags you out of your room to see the visiting family members
Aww this comment really got me
But that family member is steve irwin :)
family several trees down the lineage haha
This just proves how genuine his soul was. That mama trusted him around her baby.
RIP Steve Irwin - I true gem, professional , charismatic, I enjoyed watching all of your work with animals and miss you very much.
"Oy! Is that Steve Irwin? Steve Irwin! I've seen you on TV! Huge fan! This is my kid, made it myself! Wow, it's so nice to meet you."
Just imagine if Steve walked into a room with Bob Ross and Mr. Rogers.

Steve is always special. He has a great family too.
We were all angry when Steve died, we felt he made a rookie mistake but we all make mistakes and his legacy saves the lives of many of our fellow species.
I still don't like that kind of fish , that killed this wonderful man.
Even that I know, Steven would say: " It's not fish' fault.
We all occasionally forget Steve Irwin, but when we see his face again in these videos, it’s like he never really left us.
As someone that idolized him as a kid and got to meet him personally i don't think I'll ever be able to forget him, he just oozed compassion and love for all living things, we should all try and be more couscous of the environment so we don't let him down
@Chosen 1 i was a kid, plus better than most people kids would idolize, though I'm interested in why you said that?
Chosen 1 I’ve always thought Cinnamon Toast Crunch was a sin.
NPC #40249 Not everyone is Christian. Get over it.
@NPC #40249 like i said though i was a kid, and I'm sure no matter what kid they grew up idolizing someone despite what they believe in, wheather it be someone as a father figure or someone whos morals aline with yours, trust me these days i respect him more than anything but either way I'm agnostic, so to me i was really hoping this wouldn't become a religious debate of some sorts, so as much as i dislike the other guy i don't see why my first comment warranted a response when i clearly said i was kid, not everything has to be about religion, i feel like if thats what you believe then good for you but i don't know why me saying we should be trying to protect our environment and leave a smaller carbon footprint triggered something religious to come out, cause to me its like the point that we should be more mindful of our planet got lost and everyone chose to focus on something religious, this is why I'm agnostic, cause picking sides is not good to me, its either left or right, good and bad, nothing is as black and white and the picture that either side tries to understand is far broader than what anyone can paint, so while everyone is worrying about whos wrong or right the actual picture gets lost in the grey no one dares to cross into, maybe everyone needs to take a step back and reflect on whats really important, cause if we focus too much on who believes in what and whos on whos side your childrens children will be living in a wasteland, so focused on where WE go when your gone no concern about where the future generations are going, condemned to suffer for all our "sins"
The baby is probably a shy Steve Irwin fan and the mom is like GO GET A PICTURE WITH HIM
😂😂😂
Awe your so cute lol
What an amazing experience, something that I would never forget and never want to end. Miss ya Steve 💜
This man in a true LEGEND. His compassion inspired an entire generation to learn about and care about creatures they otherwise would never have known about. RIP King.
To this day. I miss seeing this guy on tv. Huge part of my childhood. Can’t wait to show my kids how amazing he was with animals and people.
He was fearless, loved how he just use to jump on crocodile.
I Miss Steve too... RIP
Blake Weeks
Yeah, Steve was a great guy. The world needs more people like him.
❤
His son Robert is exactly like him his son will carry on his legacy
She just “knew” he was trustworthy. She had a sixth sense about him.
Blindi you’re a fucking moron
@Blindi there is a 6th sense though it's instinctual based on external ques, processed in the subconscious. It's that uneasy feeling you get around someone you get a bad vibe from, it's body language and micro facial expressions mainly but it's very real. It evolved in us to keep us alive
@Blindi I don’t even have any words...
@Blindi we all have a sixth sense, it’s called “holy shit is that steve irwin?”
Can someone provide some context as to what happened cuz they deleted their comment
September 2023 ... I still miss Steve! One of a kind! Bright light!
Truly a heart warming moment an animal that can sense danger from miles away and will give life and limb for their little ones feels such a sense of calm from Steve that she is not only willing to interact with him but to tell her baby this human is alright and safe. Steve was truly a special one in a million person and is still missed today but not forgotten.
Still can't believe he's gone. The world lost a lot that day.
I vividly recall hearing the news that day. Steve-O had innocent way of viewing beauty in all creatures.. crocs, snakes, insects.. What a tremendous loss for his family, and for the world
His son is making him proud for sure
@@samanthacapron3375 His daughter as well.
Who else thinks his face should be on one of the Australian money notes?? He’s a true legend and he was loved by everyone
Lmao i wish
Also, i wonder how he would feel about the bush fires right now :(
Angale money doesn’t deserve Steve money is greed which Steve is not.
Yeah you’re actually right, maybe a famous statue at every zoo in Australia
I don’t think I’ve heard of him before I’ll search him up now
I truly miss his soul, our world just never was the same after losing him. I have spent my entire life helping any animals wild or not and every time I think of Steve.
She knows a kindred spirit when she sees one. Three pure, genuine and beautiful souls sitting in that tree.
She knew what we all knew, he is a sweet soul. I so miss his amazing spirit.
MISS ME
Have you seen his daughter? His son? That spirit was inherited
@@QueenTheCossackTongued His son, Robert, is a wonderful passionate young man. lots of charisma too!
Man he was honestly a great human being loved all people and animals
Same. I really enjoyed his energy and enthusiasm. Animal Planet has more humans than animals these days, unfortunately.
Even this orangutan knew the greatness of Steve.
9 yo Army Full General Of Florida Regiment that is because unlike humans, non-human animals can read others and sense their energy and know... humans have repressed that basic ability
@@Cassxowary I don't know about that. People are far more complex in body language recognition, being highly social animals.
@@Cassxowary Speak for yourself
Yes,She felt his heart and mind and gave him a touch of heaven in my opinion 🤔😊😍🥰
He was in tune with nature on an almost mystical level.
Every time a see Steve I tear up 🙁 he was a big part of my childhood.
Don't think I've watched a Steve Irwin video for over a decade...watching this clip was genuinely emotional, look how happy and in awe he was! I teared up a bit towards the end.
The man may be gone, but his work, influence and memory still shine bright.
Animals can sense love... And no one loved animals more than Steve Irvin
A.J.'s GameRoom
Agreed
You can't sense love. Love is just an abstract human concept fueled by instinct and chemicals, not some magic that flows in the air
Arach I can tell I do not love you
Tiffianie Perritt Your brain sees no reason to.
Arach instinct and chemicals...that influence exhibited behavior and movements...that can in turn be assessed as dangerous or non-threatening. So yes, you can sense it.
Animals know who to trust and who not to trust. This mother knew he was one she could trust.
And what a joy to witness ❤️
Hey Dan! Didn’t expect to see you here in the comments!
So why did that mantaray not trust Steve?
