I just read that too and it completely bummed me out. I LOVED watching that guy and he was so enthusiastic about what he was doing. I feel for his family and my prayers are with them

Ditto, that's never good. A barb through his chest??

hotmustang331 · Sep 4, 2006

Yea makes me wonder how big the darn sting ray was...jeeze.

jasonh_86 · Sep 4, 2006

Man.. That sucks!

I would like to see pics of this stingray

gtstangau · Sep 4, 2006

Damn, that sucks I always loved watching his show. That man was crazy, im really suprised it took this long the way he acted around all those deadly animals though. I feel sorry for his wife and kids though that would be rough!

stingrays can get quite large:

with serrated barbs up to 10 inches long:

though it is VERY rare to be killed by one....a poisonous barb poking a hole in your heart is just dumb facking luck. crikey

My uncle has a signed photograph of him.

I know....it sucks.......he will be missed. One of the world truely "great" human beings..........

RED2001GT · Sep 4, 2006

The big question now is whether or not the sting ray be charged with manslaughter and/or murder?
Rest in peace Steve.

i just heard the news too...pretty big shock, even though I knew it was coming sooner or later. Bad thing is thats only the 3rd case of a sting ray attack killing someone in australia.

dbrowning · Sep 4, 2006

Even though it was doing something he loved, that's still a bad way to go.

stangGT97 · Sep 4, 2006

this is sad... he was one of the few good people left on TV. I feel for his family, but like was said, at least he died doing what he loved.

Why couldn't this happen to Geraldo?

stangliter04 · Sep 4, 2006

RIP Steve

GDawg · Sep 4, 2006

That's really sad to hear. I really liked him.

...but it was almost inevitable that something fatal would happen. He and a few others like him, really push the limits with these dangerous animals.

Tally_4.6 · Sep 4, 2006

When my dad told me i was shocked, i really liked steve. RIP man.

DBMSTNG · Sep 4, 2006

i always thought he'd end up getting himself killed by an animal. you can only tempt fate so many times. sad to hear. i feel for his family.

03ghoststang · Sep 4, 2006

damn this really sucks i liked watching his shows, he really pushed it to the limit being next dangerous and poisonous animals............R.I.P Steve

TrueBlue03 · Sep 4, 2006

that guy was my idol. up until i started college, i was convinced i would become a herpetologist. (seriously, no joke)

i feel so bad for his family. best of luck to them through this hard time.
R.I.P. Steve
