Tributes are flowing in for naturalist and TV star Steve Irwin who has died after a diving accident off far north Queensland.

Politicians, tourism industry figures and members of the public are expressing sympathy for the family and friends of Irwin, who was stung through the heart by a stingray while diving off Port Douglas.

Federal Opposition Leader Kim Beazley says Irwin was a great ambassador for the country.

"This is terribly, terribly tragic news. It spread through the Parliament like wildfire at Question Time and I know I speak on behalf of my parliamentary colleagues on both sides of the chamber when we express our deepest condolences to Steve's wife Terri and all the family," he said.

Deputy Prime Minister and Nationals leader Mark Vaile has praised Irwin for his contribution to wildlife conservation.

Mr Vaile says he was a tremendous fan and says Irwin made an amazing contribution to business and conservation.

Queensland Premier Peter Beattie says Irwin was a fine ambassador for his country.

"He was a great Australian, he was obviously a great Queenslander, but he put Queensland and Australia on the international map," he said.

"I mean I can remember going to the United States where people would not know the Prime Minister of Australia but they knew Steve Irwin."

Industry in shock

One of Australia's major tourism groups says the country has lost a magnificent ambassador.

Christopher Brown from the Tourism and Transport Forum says Irwin touched the lives of people around the world.

"It's almost an ironic confirmation of his life. He wasn't fake. He was really out there doing that stuff. He didn't have stunt men. He didn't have camera tricks," he said.

"He was out there interacting one-on-one with a camera at his side, bringing nature to the world, and it's a sad irony but for a guy who's spent his life trying to protect nature, eventually his death was caused by it."

The Australian Tourism Export Council says the industry is in a state of shock.

Managing director Matthew Hingery says Irwin was a fantastic ambassador for Australia and particularly for Queensland.

He says Irwin was known across the world and his work helped to bring millions of tourist dollars into Australia.

The director of Alice Springs Reptile Centre says Irwin helped boost the business of reptile parks across the country.

Rex Neindorf, who worked with Irwin in Alice Springs, says his death will come as a shock to the industry.

"His work bringing reptiles to the attention of everyone around the world is what has brought reptiles to the front of everyone's mind, so for small parks like mine, we've definitely had a lift from his work over the years," he said.

'Absolute shock'

Queensland radio talkback callers have expressed their sadness at the news of Irwin's death.

"This whole area will be in absolute mourning and shock," said one caller.

"I've just gone down to the zoo to place flowers at the front entrance and the staff look so devastated," said another caller.

"I guess in a way, as sad as it is, what a lucky man because he did, he went doing what he absolutely loved and lived for," added another.

Irwin is survived by his wife and two children

THE fatal stingray attack on Steve Irwin may have occurred because the animal was startled or frightened, an expert said today.

Victoria Brims, a marine life expert from Oceanworld in Sydney, said the stingray that killed Irwin was most likely provoked.

"I am aware he was filming a documentary and his documentaries are usually very hands on. I can only assume that he had some kind of hands on or close contact with the animal who like us when we get afraid defended itself," Ms Brims said.

Brims also said that for a sting to result in death the person involved had to be stung close to the heart and also have a reaction to the sting.

"For the most part people get stung on the foot when they accidentally tread on a ray and this can be no worse than a bacterial infection," Ms Brims said.

"Their barbs are very strong and release poison if touched. It must have got him right near the heart but the barb would not have gone through his chest."

There was an accident of this kind two years ago in Coogee but the man involved was treated by medics at the scene and survived the incident.

Brims said she had always dreamed of meeting Irwin. "He can be a bit quirky at times but he loved his work," she said. "It is a sad day and I am sure everyone around the world will hear of his death."

It's very sad news. He was a passionate environmentalist and always seemed like a very decent man.

It's very sad... however, I'm sure he would rather have left this world in that manner, than to have been ran down by a bus or suchlike... he lived for the danger of the wild, and that's what killed him...

Very tragic though.. especially for his wife and children...

I feel guilty for finding the jokes funny now.
They're just taking things lightheartedly.
Or, they hate Steve.

But I know that his fans should be thought about, and I'm not trying to defend that, but it's also their opinion if they don't like Steve.

Just remember, he has died now, so there's not an awful lot we can do. :sad:

Because of Steve Irwin the "great Aussie icon" I have had to explain to people over and over again that nobody says Crikey here and we do NOT talk or dress like him. Now that makes me annoyed, so hopefully now that he is out of our lives we can show the UK and the USA the real Australia and not some "g'day mate" stereotypical fool

I know someone who died doing something they love best but do they get a whole news segment to them, no

He has made Australia the joke so now it's time for me to have some fun because now, I'll have nobody to laugh at on the TV for being stupid

You've made your point now!..
And I do agree in a way, I've always thought of Australians being all 'gday mate' and Steve did add to it.

But the fact is that he's dead now, so some sensitivity needs to shown to his fans (not that I'm suggesting that he's a God or anything).

I thought so to, but I dont class someone who makes jokes at a death, very 'nice' to be honest.
He may have been in the public eye, but hes still normal.
I doubt Jakey would go to a funeral, and start making jokes.

At first I thought that had I seen that documentary I too would probably have been assured ,but then I started thinking that he would have taken these precautions on his latest trip too. I Just think that with dangerous animals almost anything can happen.I felt uncomfortable when i saw his daughter put in this position but must confess i dont recall what animal it was.

I belive the animal that did kill him A stingray to be precise, is normally a very placid and calm animal, however on this very rare occurance the stingray attacked

Steve loved animals and constantly perserved to promote the protection of many species, including crocodiles snakes and sharks
Steve knew the risks of whatg he was doing, after all it was his career and lifestyle and i doubt he would have done anything that would have but himself at rish, especially "dining onto" the stingray
The words you used were very crude, steve was a profesional and didn't go round just diving on stingrays!

Yeah sorry i meant the animal in the documentary you saw.?
and yes they said it was very odd after all hes done to be killed by a stingray. But in a way that is the point about anything can happen.It wouldn`t be right to take that decision on behalf of a young daughter. Afterall I,as an adult, choose to avoid such situations

04-09-2006, 01:34 PM

The animal was a crocodile, I beliedve the reasons he did this were valid
He wanted his son to love animals especially crocs
He said so himself he has crocs in his garden
He needed to introduce his son to these animals at an early age to avoid the horrors of wating a few years
also he said so himself 3 media people were filming that day, one made nothing of it and didnt show it, another though it was a fun piece and put it and the end while the last one got the right shot and made a big deal out of it

I didn't really find it offensive (although obviously I wouldn't, because ... well yeah) and, well, his death, although it's sad - people die everyday, people who have children, a family, whatever. Yes, it's sad, but it IS part of life and what Steve Irwin was doing was kind of bound to get him hurt someday, at the least.

I heard it once in my life but that was in a real bogan area.

And people are taking what I have said so stupidly that I cannot believe. I'm not joking about death... half my life has had death in it so I'd be the last one to joke about it

Aww I feel sorry for you now ...

Yeah, he did actually ... I think that's a sign of respect - I don't particularly agree that remorse has to be shown though - we never knew the man personally! He wasn't a friend of mine, or in any way part of my life! It's sad for his family, but I just don't think it's sad TO ME. I don't think that's selfish, I think it's pretty practical. I know he's dead, but thousands of people die every day ... we don't acknowledge 99% of their deaths, and if Steve Irwin wasn't on a TV program about crocodiles, we wouldn't acknowledge his either.

Yeah, I don't think Ash has said anything really rude or disrespectful towards you, Chrizzle - she has tried to just end the argument and be quite respectful towards the death of Irwin. It just didn't effect her - same with me really.

It makes me mad the way he gets all this attention and so many people saying how sad it is when as people have said, people die everyday who have a family. The only difference being, Steve Irwin does this job knowing the risks, knowing he could die and puts himself in danger so i've no sympathy for him in the slightest. If he's willing to put himself in danger then i couldn't care less really. Now when someone dies of cancer or something like that, then i will have sympathy for them.

I have sympathy for his family obviously but he had young kids and he still went out doing a life threatening job? Well that just proves that he's a really selfish man and he has brought his death on himself. No sympathy for the man, i feel sorry for his kids for having such a selfish dad who's willing to risk is life for a stupid t.v programme when he has younger kids.

Don't rest in piece Steve Irwin, because i'm sure your family won't be in peace for a long time, selfish fool.

Er anyway, I have realised I don't think that sounds that harsh. I ... kind of agree with you. He DID know what his job asked from him. He knew what he was asked of, yet he still put himself in danger, his family must have known that. His family, I also feel sorry for them, I would feel sorry for any family that lost a relative, but he did put himself in danger and knew what he was doing and what it could do to him, yet he went ahead with it ... it WAS really his own fault.

Chrizzle, I now see why I didn't like you all those weeks ago. This side of you, the one that argues poorly and just makes the silliest comments has been kept hidden for the past few weeks. In times like these you see people's true colours, and you have painted yours across the forum. You had one point and you pushed it for 4 pages and when you saw that people didn't agree with you suddenly you were over it. You call me and Ash weak? Please. You can't handle an argument and can't handle other people's opinions.

I wont say anymore but just remember, look into that mirror

Chrizzle, if you met me, you'd understand, because I did say to you earlier that any posts that might have come across has having double standards or whatever I will look out for, although I'm anything but like that in real life. I just didn't expect you to turn it all into an argument, especially considering the fact that I've always tried to defend you when people turn against you.

Okay.

Jake - yes, I can understand how it would annoy you if people sterotyped all Australians because of one man. However, it's not Steve Irwin's fault if people are too stupid to realise that one man does not represent a whole country.

Legend - it's inaccurate to say "nobody can argue with me" because that's precisely what some people are doing - myself included.

What I don't understand is - it's one thing to dislike someone. There are people I dislike too, and that's human nature. It's quite another to gloat about the fact that they are dead.

The only difference being, Steve Irwin does this job knowing the risks, knowing he could die and puts himself in danger so i've no sympathy for him in the slightest. If he's willing to put himself in danger then i couldn't care less really. Now when someone dies of cancer or something like that, then i will have sympathy for them.

I have sympathy for his family obviously but he had young kids and he still went out doing a life threatening job? Well that just proves that he's a really selfish man and he has brought his death on himself. No sympathy for the man, i feel sorry for his kids for having such a selfish dad who's willing to risk is life for a stupid t.v programme when he has younger kids.

Don't rest in piece Steve Irwin, because i'm sure your family won't be in peace for a long time, selfish fool.

How can you even say that?
He had a job- And thats what he had to. Is your heart made from stone?
Sure, the job he did was dangerous, but nobody, not even you, Has the right to say he shouldnt rest in peace.

Ok, I have to stress IMO I could never imagine that anyone would gloat about the death of a person, and I did NOT think that Jake was doing that (and still don't), otherwise obviously I wouldn't have stuck up for him.

Also, I think Legend made a very good point, and no one DID argue with him (unless I'm being ignorant again), you haven't (yet).

Another thing. I am not stupid, but I honestly thought Australians said stuff like "g'day mate". I just did. It was just one of those things, and yes it was fuelled by him, and other TV programs based in Australia.

But, loads of people ARE forgotten. There are people who don't even have a cause of death or their deaths weren't registered. That's not unfair? Just because he's famous, I'm not going to make a special effort remember him for being a great person. Yes, it is sad, I feel bad for his family, but I don't really think there should be an exception to his death just because he was famous. Ugh, I'm really bad at sounding too harsh. :sad:

Which is a bit silly.

Yah I know it's really petty now :tongue: or has been for the last 3 pages lol

Well I dont see you doing anything to stop it..

I never said I wanted to stop it. Stopping it without everyone letting out their feelings would be stopping something unfinished; kind of pointless.

Well you did kind of help to start it. :tongue:

:shocked: And I left it, doesnt that show something?

What that you didn't want to be involved anymore? That did us a lot of help :thumbs:

Sorry if that sounds rude! I don't mean to be rude. Just ... oh I don't know. I'm going to stop apologising for what I'm saying :tongue:

Well if you dont know what your saying, dont say anything.

Thanks for that, but I knew what I was saying. I just said I wasn't going to apologise for it and that I don't mean to be rude.

Oh for god's sake, stop pinning the blame on other people! You were the one that accused Jake of making jokes - wrongly.

Yeah I know Elz, I feel so bad for Ash!

I'm not "putting all of this" on you, I'm saying don't say Jake started it when he didn't - you obviously misinterpreted him wrong, and said he was making jokes about someone's death. Therefore he did not start it, he was simply voicing an opinion, and people kind of IMO, jumped on that.

That was really quite harsh, you don't know about the argument, I'm not meaning to be rude but that is a bit mean to say something like that about her for no apparent reason - I don't just announce I dislike someone. If it wasn't Ash I apologise although I don't know who you could be talking about, or why! :sad:

I don't recall disagreeing with him, just voicing my opinion, although maybe it wasn't my place, sorry. You're just getting involved by saying that anyway .... :rolleyes:

Thanks Jake, and yes I got myself involved, I apologised, let go! Unless we're talking about a different argument ... lol :tongue:

04-09-2006, 03:44 PM

Will you people shut up and stop marring a topic about a heroic idol's death? That man was caring, kind, enthusiastic (indeed, overly so) and was someone to look up to for many small children, and indeed people all over the world. He was brave, and he loved animals. Jake, I can see why you're angry, but anybody with half a braincell knows that Steve Irwin does not represent everyone in Australia. I have to say, you were a bit harsh about what you were saying. I mean come on, the man's died. Surely you can accept that his death is a great loss to the world of entertainment, if nothing more? I mean, he was a huge part of my childhood, he was always on TV and you only needed to watch him to know he was a kind hearted man. You don't have to know him to be nice about his death, even if you don't like him there was no need to say so in this topic; the man has died.

Yes. But I know Ash, and like her. I do not know Steve Irwin.

Another thing, I did not really find Jake's supposed jokes offensive, I didn't think he was disrespecting Irwin particularly. I didn't even see them much as jokes, just his opinion.

Ok, i'm just schimming through posts now cause i don't know what ones are actually points or just argument so...

Gazza - the don't rest in peice comment was over the top yeah, i agree but i completely stand by everything else i said.

Ruth - yeah, me saying that won't make his kids feel better but firstly; there never going to read it and secondly; it's the truth.

Chrizzle - risking your life by going to war is fighting for your country whearas risking your life to make a t.v programme when having 2 kids is selfish and foolish. There 2 completely different things.

I'm finding it hard to see most of the replies becuase of all the arguing so there just the ones i've seen. ^^ :wink:
