Try though you might, this place won't become 4chan.

Failchan? I know not what this failchan is.

Both of you please stop bickering and get back on topic before I have to put my moderator hat on.

Fine, im posting again >.>...

You should get hit by a truck (is this the subject now?) if you laugh at someone's death and their family who lost a dear person to them, because thats what you deserve for being a heartless bastard, much like what someone deserves when they risk their life and die in an accident, because they are stupid.

Actually, if the trucker who ran you over dies, thats what he deserves aswell, driving is dangerous and he should know that.

Actually, dont breathe, theres bacteria in the air, who knows what may happen... and if you die from it, you should know better not to breathe bacteria into your lungs, hah!

Let the quotation begin.

XD Is that true? That .. just wow.

Yep completely true, I've been scouring a few news archives to find the article, I read it on the Register, but I've not had any luck. The story is about five or six years old though.

Suppose it kind of like that *cough* great *cough* mathematician who died a few years ago. He was tipped for the Nobel prize, touted as the new Einstein then went and did a 100ft Bungee jump with a 150ft cord.

XD Is that true? That .. just wow.

Re: Crikey! The Croc. Hunter is dead!

It's been all over the Internet and all over the news, hasn't it? I know that everyone in the world must have heard about it by now.
I have Yahoo as my home page, so I turned on my comp this morning to be faced by this. Click Here
I couldn't believe what I was reading, right before my very eyes!! I have watched a lot of his programmes and have always had a huge soft spot for animals and wildlife myself! I've always felt inspired by what he'd created, and now, the news of his loss has left me feeling quite numb. /sigh.
He was a great person, very caring and loved to educate people with his knowledge of wild animals.
I feel alot of respect to the guy, and now that he is gone, he will be sorely missed.
I saw a clip on the news where people were laying down bouquets of flowers outside Australia Zoo where Steve presented quite a few of his programmes.
If I lived in Australia, then I would have liked to go along and lay some nice flowers ln memory of him too, but since I don't live there it wouldn't be possible.
Ahh well.... I'm sure his familay know that there a lot of people thinking of him anyway.
R.I.P Mr Irwin. May you live on, up there in Heaven. God rest your soul! *sheds a little tear at his loss*
P.S. - I was nearly going to start off this thread myself, but I wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do, since this is a gaming forum centred around FFXl.
I'm a little surprised to say that someone else has already beaten me to it.

Re: Crikey! The Croc. Hunter is dead!

Damn ; ; I loved that show, I even cried once when one of his oldest and most beloved crocodiles died in the zoo. Why must all good days be ruined T_T

And could everyone please stop fighting and have some respect for the dead? Steve Irwin was a great man with a wife and two kids. The fact that he was a celebrity should have nothing to do with it. This is a time that we should honor and remember what he did for the natural community, and more importantly his family. If you have a bone to pick with someone's opinion take it to PMs, there's no need to spam this thread up with it.

Its a shame Sparrows are dangerous. Damn Bill Oddie is annoying

And only a Brit will get that...

Steve Irwin I guess died doing what he did best - getting up close and personal to dangerous animals, making them a bit more accessable to us mere mortals. A good environmentalist died today.

Seriously though, its ironic that Steve Irwin died from a non-aggressive creature after spending most of his life chasing and grabbing crocs, snakes etc. Yes some may find it funny but I'd say it was more in the "heh" sense rather than

Re: Crikey! The Croc. Hunter is dead!

I heard the barb punctured his heart, which would have been a very lucky shot for the stingray. I think that piece of information is still internet rumor at this point, so take it for what you will. True or not it's a grim reminder of just how fragile a human life really is.

It's posted on CNN's main page the direct link is

http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/asiapcf/09/04/australia.irwin/index.html

Also an Austrailian news site is linked on the 1st page by the op if you want to see the full story. Your right btw it was a puncture through the heart making Steve Erwin the 3rd person to ever die from a Stingray attack according to the site.
