"What's the go with the media. Expectations for 'state-funerals' and giving him maximum air time. He had two or three tributes, and that's just over here in Australia. I doubt our Prime Minister's death would bring such a fuss.

I don't meen to be rude or anything (actually, I do X.X), but Steve Irwin didn't do too much. Sure, he 'saved' animals (or tormented, as I personally think) but all he really was doing was posing for the camera (and in some cases putting both himself and other people's lives in danger). His death was not ironic. His luck did not run out. He was simply somebody who did not know about scuba diving in general and was even less aware of the dangers that sting-rays bring.

Also, newsflash. Whatever you may think, Steve-O was not a hero. I don't care what you think. If you do a little research you may actually find that he was not conservationist. He made money from tormenting wildlife. He did things that didn't need to be done. He didn't do anything for a 'good cause'.

Thankyou for making this video, and even though you made it for fun (most likely thoughtlessly. I bet you were pretty neutral towards the whole event) I'm glad that not everybody is done on their knees making out that Steve is a guy we should actually remember for good things.

I am, however, sympathetic towards his family and his death. I just don't think there should be such a big fuss about.

Find a real hero, people. Stop looking up to animal tormentors."

TTTTTTTHank you.
