Crikey!

Posted by peterbps on September 7, 2006

On the 4/9/06 the crocodile hunter also known as Steve Irwin got killed by a short tailed stingray while doing a special clip for his daughter Bindi.    According to the news the stingray got boxed in and got scared and panicked waving its stinger everywhere which went right through Steve’s lungs and into his heart. He swam to the surface and ripped the stinger out of his chest. Unfortunately he died and that was the last anyone saw of Steve Irwin or the crocodile hunter.
Middle P were very disappointed at his death so the next day brought up three websites and a video, (that we got off Wikipedia), to read and watch. We found a few facts on the short tailed sting ray on a web site called wikipedia. Middle P were very sad when we heard he was dead but we can always watch his daughter Bindi.

    To Pete,

    I didn’t like how Steve Irwin died either but I am getting over it. I am also happy that I saw him before he died. Imagine what it would be like if he was your Dad!
