16 years later and I still miss Steve. He was a childhood hero of mine. RIP Steve, your son and wife and daughter have done an awesome job keeping your message alive, but nobody could do it quite like you.. Crocs Rule!
I'm so glad to see all of the comments here. I feel, sometimes, that I'm the only one who remembers him. I'm so glad that I am wrong. Rest in peace, Steve. The crocodiles on earth still cry, yet those that passed before you rejoice.
Steve-O you did a huge amount to help the environment and the love from your admirers pours out for your family at this extremely sad time of your passing. YOU will always be my HERO
He passed away 7 years ago, today, September 4th. We shall never forget what Steve did for the world, and how he changed the views of millions of people on animals.
Steve Irwin will always be remembered in our hearts as a great guy who love his family and crocodiles.He was a wonderful person full of fun and energy.He will be missed but never forgotten.LIVE on Steve
I´m from Czech Republic and everybody here knows him. I remeber when I saw him on Animal Planet I had to be happy. My English is realy bad , Steve, I know but I must say this: You were THE MAN, you were THE HOPE for wild animals, you were HOPE for people and finally you ARE still in my (our?) heart(s) and will forever. Thanks for your contribution to this planet.
I saw a few of his documentaries on the Animal planet channel, his point of view on life was extraordinary. He was in love with life and everything that had to do with it. He was a great dad. One of the greatest man that ever lived. I cryed half way trought the documentary, his little girl loved him, its so sad that shell grow up and he wont be there for her. He will be missed.
I remember the day i found out he died, my parents had messaged me while i was in class. It took me 3 hours to comprehend it and i started crying in the middle of class
To those who misunderstand this great man, I want to say this. He had a tremendous respect for the wild and never harmed an animal. He had a great love for his work and those who never saw him work need to really do some research. He was an idol of mine because of his wonderful commitment to his work. I am not going to include any words in here to make myself sound tough. I am simply stating that those of you who seem to misunderstand Steve really need to take a second look.
Here is just another comment from someone who wasn't even a huge fan of steve, but loved watching his programmes whenever they were on tv and i still do, i remember it came to me as a huge shock that someone that we had always known of and with such great personality and attitute towards life has now gone, but i am sure it is to a better place... R.I.P steve x
I was 8 years old the day he died, and I cried non-stop Because I really idolized the guy, he was my hero and he was without a doubt the greatest animal relocator. He was always so enthusiastic about his work and I don't care about what anyone else thinks, he was a great man and will be alive in my heart forever. R.I.P mate
Steve was a man that brought a lot of people happiness and at the same time educating them. He died doing what he loved and there is comfort in that. The world is a little darker with his passing. RIP
steve irwin was a great man. He passionately cared about some of the most important things in the world: his family, his country and the environment. If we all were like him then the world would be a better place. RIP
I ´m an aussie who lives in brazil today and sadly to say that he is also loved and worshipped here for his work and entertainment!!! The world is crying for him...May his soul rest in peace...Crickey!!!
When Steve Irwin died, it was like waking up and finding out that Superman was dead. I still can't believe it. He was just a good person through and through. His legacy will live on through his children, and all those who loved him and his mission. R.I.P.
ever since i was a little kid, ive been watching steve irwin doing the things he loved the most. Now i cant, because death finally got him this time. D: R.I.P
steve u taught me to love all animals and you showed respect and love for all creatures that wont ever be matched thany you i see now why god needed a person like u in the heavens
R.I.P Steve Your the kind of man that cannot be reacted. Your shows showed me alot and i learned alot. I never knew you'll die fform something you love and can't believe your gone from this world. God Bless you, your family, and everything you love.... Crocs Rules!
Steve was a gr8 man he was a true ambassadore for Australia...when one of my friends went all over tha world they said that people hadnt heard of John Howard (the prime minsister of Australia) but they had heard of Steve Irwin R.I.P. ur a bloody legend
I remember when I was little Turning on the TV to turn on animal planet just waiting for his show to come on He inspired me and taught me a lot Is very sad that we lost him
He died living his passion. There is something sacred in that. He embraced his life doing what he loved. He is an inspiration. God Bless you, Crikey, and your family.
RIP Steve you will truely be missed.... your passion with your work inspired us all and will never be forgotten .... you lived a life you love and atleast you were able to die doing what you loved ... you will be missed ... bye mate
I may not seen his program once a week or even a month...i know, he deserve such honor to be remembered not just a True Croc Hunter or even a Father but also...a Friend...RIP Steve, wherever you are right now, may God be with you... + Steve Irwin + 1962-2006 " You will always be Remembered "
Steve Irwin was my hero. I want to be a Zoologist because of him. I will miss him forever more. Rest in a crazy, animal and danger-filled world, cause that's what you's want. We love you tevo.
Steve Irwin I will miss yo so much! When I heard about this incident today I couldn't help but cry because Steve Irwin was the most inspiring man to walk this planet. R.I.P Steve and may your legacy of wildlife keep spreading through the world -.-
i remember when this happend, i has home from iraq for a few days. i spent most of my life watching wild life channels and fist time i saw him i was like "man this guy is crazy". then i watced the show all the time to see what kind of crazy stuff he would do next. sad to see someone who loved the outdoors go. he was like the chuck norris of wild life
A bloody great Aussie and a great guy. Upheld the great Aussie attitudes - larrikanism, humour, happy-go-lucky attitude and a love of life and the outdoors. Good on ya mate.
I am not one to remember things. But I remember what he has done to my life. He had a way of expressing himself. He was, no, he IS one in a million. Jumping in danger, not knowing if he will live. He was happy and he changed the world. One of the few men to do so. When he died I cried deeply. Tears fill my eyes as I type this. Steve, if anyone deserves to live forever, it is you. Rest in peace.
australia have had some very inspirational and charming men taken too soon in these last few years: Steve Irwin Peter Brock Heath Ledger R.I.P You will all be missed
This is a nice tribute. Steve Irwin was a great environmentalist and a great personality. He did what he wanted to do with his life and made life better for animals in the process. I feel very sorry for his family, though, they must be devastated.
I admired Steve Irwin and will continue to do so...i was shocked when i heard he had died he was a wonderful man and he well be remembered for years to come also i would like to give my condolences to his family & friends if someone can show them this message in anyway please do...and i just want to say Thank You Steve Irwin for all your commited hard work to wildlife and education you've made a real difference and i hope wherever you are your doing what you love doing best!
Steve had the greatest mullet back in 91 didn't he? I remember he died the afternoon before QCS (Queensland Core Skills test) and us seniors had just finished setting up the exam room when we came outside and were told he was dead. No one believed it at the time, too ironic. RIP Steve x
Rest In Peace Steve. Heaven help the family through this with God Speed. Keep their Australia Zoo Open. God Blessed You Already Steve, I am sure he needs you. I Pray his wife will carry on in Steves name. Amen.
I'll miss him.Although I didn't watch his shows all the time, whenever it was accidently on I actually sat down and watched it. he just had so much energy it's hard to imagine someone able to replace him.Thank you Steve for you wonderful personality and way of showing people the great things in creatures most of us don't like. You are going to be a very missed person in this world for a while especially to your family. May God be with you :)
Three Years To The Day, The Animals Are Lost Without You Mate And Those Of Us That Would Emulate You Have Lost A Great Leading Light! Steve Erwin Taking A Smoko, You Will Live In Our Hearts Forever Mate!
I have never been this sad about the death of someone I have never met. I hear about celebrities dying and it rarely affects me. But Steve was such a lovable and charismatic guy. Doesn't seem right, but hey that's life.. It just reminds us of the fragility of our existence.
I can't believe Steve Irwin is now gone. He was my idol. and he did anythign to help all beautiful creatures including crocodiles. Steve Irwin was the greatest man inh istory to help such creatures. Rest in Peace. Steve Irwin. We'll never forget you. T_T *begins to cry*
Steve was one person, and could have only done so much. If we are to really continue his legacy, we ought to take up his cause and push to help nature, the animals, and make a difference in conservation of our forests, swamps, and wildlife areas. The world needs you Steve.
he HAD to jump on them so he could take them somewhere they wouldnt come into contact with humans. he saved their fucking lives. it was his job. because of him more people care about crocs than ever before. dont fucking say he tormented them. i've never met anyone more passionate about wildlife. He put his heart into everything he did. Simple really.
it's unfair that he died he loves wild animls he would never harm a singal wild life he died doing what he loves REST IN PEACE CROCIDILE HUNTER/ WE ALL MISS YOU
Im very impressed with the respect shown by the words in most of the comments towards this tragic accident. Normally they are not so desirable. I am also deeply saddened by the events. Steve was a truly great Australian and he will go down in history as one of the greatest. If we all took some of Steves great attributes the world would be a fantastic place to live. RIP Steve Irwin
"Look at that it's the point where his tail's gone right through my heart." I can imagine him now. The guy looked death in the face more times in one show than most people do in a lifetime.
I'm with you man. I'm not even a Michael Jackson fan. My only point is that he was had a absolutely massive global fan base. Way beyond the kind of recognition Steve Irwin commanded. At any rate, very tragic that Steve died so young in what was a total freak accident. At least he died doing what he loved and left a fantastic legacy.
He was completely awesome Hes a ledgend to help people realise, me and my mate have written him a tribute song you can see it on my page "The Gnarliest Man That Ever Lived" R.I.P steve
16 years later and I still miss Steve. He was a childhood hero of mine. RIP Steve, your son and wife and daughter have done an awesome job keeping your message alive, but nobody could do it quite like you.. Crocs Rule!
I remember always watching this...after 2 years, can't believe he's gone.
He didn't deserve to die
R.I.P Steve Irwin.
I'm so glad to see all of the comments here. I feel, sometimes, that I'm the only one who remembers him. I'm so glad that I am wrong. Rest in peace, Steve. The crocodiles on earth still cry, yet those that passed before you rejoice.
Steve-O you did a huge amount to help the environment and the love from your admirers pours out for your family at this extremely sad time of your passing. YOU will always be my HERO
Rest in peace Steve Irwin.
You will forever be in our hearts as a man of peace.
:'( I AM STILL CRYING. WE LOVE YOU STEVE IRWIN! YOU ARE THE BESTEST AWESOMENEST ONE AND ONLY CROCODILE HUNTER IN THE WHOLE WIDE UNIVERSE! R.I.P STEVE!
