He was beloved in our household and he will be missed. He was a very charismatic individual who will never be replaced. It is a sad time indeed.

He was entertaining and did much good for wildlife awareness.

Just wondering, which arranger did he use? That would explain to me why this was posted in the General Arranger forum.

I think he mainly played in the key of Cri. Sometimes Crikey minor for a more bluesy feel.

Well yeah I guess it really doesn't belong here. But I really can't complain about this sort of OT posting. We have many other postings that don't have so much meaning as this. Steve Irwin played such an important role in protecting wildlife I have no problem talking about what a loss it is losing someone like this.

Personally I am very sorry to see Steve pass on but he leaves a great legacy which will continue to help wildlife on this planet for many years. He made me proud to be an Australian.

Yes, he was a great aussie, and we will miss him.

Scott, in all fairness, that clip was taken out of proportion - the child was not in danger at all. See this video from youtube, and you'll see for yourself.

There's a poor taste joke about it already..
I thought about posting it, but thought better of it.

All things considered I would imagine it's the way he would have wanted to go, doing the job he enjoyed, and going quickly suffuring little.

You can't be serious. Why does it matter? Geez.

I find the global attention to this unfortunate accident, and the outpouring of sentiment rather amazing ... I had no idea he was as popular as this ...

This tragedy will continue to be all over the news on radio, papers and TV here in Australia for some time to come. Such is the great affection and regard that Steve has deservedly held in this country (and all around the world).

Most people seem to share the feeling that they have lost a close friend even though most never had the priviliege of meeting him in person.

The world will be poorer for the loss of such a great man.

The personal tragedy for me is, we live, what, 80 km from Oz Zoo, and we never bothered to go - always tomorrow we thought...
