WTF is up with all the people on here extolling him like he's a HERO?. What about the 14 RAF personnel killed in the air crash in Afghanistan. Are any of you "sending prayers" to their family and friends? (maybe I missed that forum)
Where are your "the good die young" postings for these guys? We won't even go into the 177 British troops who have died in the Iraq or the 21 killed in Afghanistan. That would just be too obvious.
Seriously people, Steve Irwin was a **i*k who felt the need to play "master" to the animal kingdom. He had no respect for animals and, frankly, got what he deserved.

Glad i am not the only one offended by this post-Perhaps its you who is the **i*k steeljack.
