I was the 3rd to post in this thread, and I sent it to Drudge once I saw it. Sooo, that would be a yes.

Wife, daughter, and son (born in 2003).


Apparently the wife doesn't even know yet. Which is weird and depressing:


"It is believed Mr Irwin's American-born wife Terri is trekking on Cradle Mountain in Tasmania and is yet to be told of her husband's death"

From the Drudge Link

It is believed Mr Irwin's American-born wife Terri is trekking on Cradle Mountain in Tasmania and is yet to be told of her husband's death

How sad is that... The whole world finds out before she does.

Edit: Everyone caught that one at the same time.

For real, the guy basically stopped short of a steel cage match with crocodiles, swam with sharks, climbed up trees to catch poisonous snakes, and probably made out with a komodo dragon on more than one occasion and he's done in by a sting ray, not only was it surprising he is suddnely dead but then you read sting ray and it's all the more surprising.

I "swam" with them in Grand Cayman a few years back, too. Scared the sh!t of me, especially when they would get close and wrap around you.

Dang man thats horrible. He was a great guy. And quite the entertainer.

Sadly that kind of work is really pushing the odds and they do catch up with you sometimes.

To be honest, it doesn't really matter. I've been called worse names by better people.

This weekend the animal kingdom celebrates a rare victory in their war against humanity. The war criminal Steve Irwin was finally, after thousands of assassination attempts, killed by a naval officer. Irwin was wanted on hundreds of counts of torture, and is known to operate a concentration camp. Camp operations are unlikely to be severely damaged.
