SYDNEY (AFP) - World-renowned
"crocodile hunter" and television environmentalist Steve Irwin has
been killed after being stung in the chest by a stingray off northeastern
Australia, police said.
The iconic Irwin, 44, known for his enthusiastic
handling of even the deadliest of wildlife, was killed when a stingray barb
punctured his chest during the filming and underwater documentary off the coast
of the state of Queensland.
"It is believed that Mr Irwin collapsed
after being stung by a stingray at Batt Reef off Port Douglas at about 11:00 am
(0100 GMT). He had been filming a documentary," a statement from the Queensland
Police Service said.
"After being stung by a stingray his crew
called for medical treatment and the Queensland medical helicopter responded,
however Mr Irwin had died," the statement added.
Police said Irwin's family had been informed of
his death. Irwin was married to US-born Terri Irwin and the couple had two
children aged eight and three.
The larger-than-life Irwin's rallying cry of
"crikey" when faced with a crocodile, snake or ferocious-looking
spider, made him an Australian icon across the world.
His "Crocodile Hunter" show, in which
he appeared in his trademark khaki shorts and shirt, was first broadcast in
1992 and has been shown around the world on cable network Discovery.
Hold up... hold on... don't be scared
You'll never change what's been and gone
May your smile... Shine on... Don't be scared
Your destiny may keep you warm.
Cos all of the stars are fading away
Just try not to worry you'll see them some day
Take what you need and be on your way
And stop crying your heart out
Get up... Come on... why you scared
You'll never change what been and gone
Stop Crying Your Heart Out - Oasis

These 20 funny statements will tell you if you truly are a geek.
You know you're a geek when... You have 2 or more ISPs. You feel like an inferior when you have to call tech support for anything. Your computer cost more than your wife's engagement ring. Hearing your computer boot up is the only thing that brings you out of a coma. When moving, you choose a neighborhood based on the number of unencrypted wireless networks. You give your kids corrupt CD-Rs to use as frisbees and bad network cables for jump ropes. The
last time your nephew asked for a piggyback ride, you connected to your
neighbor's wireless network and opened your web browser.
You're a Democrat and you hate Dell more than George Bush. You think “March of the Penguins” is Linux showcase coming to your city next March. When
you got arrested for throttling your Internet, you were more interested
in the specifications of the police officer's laptop than hearing your
Miranda rights. Your boss fired you when he caught you overclocking your Celeron work computer so you could play WoW. Your mouse pad is larger than 7x7 inches. You cringe whenever you see beige. You can tell how much storage an Ipod video has based on its thickness. Your mouse cost more than $20. When
the weather man said a cat 5 was heading your way, you checked your
mailbox to see if your network cables arrived from Newegg. Your monitor is larger than your TV. You can name four or more operating systems in less than 10 seconds.
You sold one of your kidneys when the AMD Athlon X2 came out so you could upgrade.
You own a generator just so you can use your computer when the power goes out.
