Media statement – 4 September 2006
Steve Irwin
At 11am today, 4 September 2006, Steve Irwin was fatally wounded by a stingray barb to his heart while filming a sequence on Batt Reef off Port Douglas for a new TV series.
Emergency services were called from Cairns Rescue Base and met Croc One, Steve’s rescue vessel, at Low Isle on the Great Barrier Reef.
The Croc One crew performed constant CPR during the thirty-minute dash to Low Isle, but Steve was pronounced deceased at 12 noon by Queensland Ambulance Services personnel.
His producer and closest friend, John Stainton said on Croc One today,
“The world has lost a great wildlife icon, a passionate conservationist and one of the proudest dads on the planet. He died doing what he loves best and left this world in a happy and peaceful state of mind. Steve would have said, ‘Crocs Rule!’” |

Shouldn't we respect the forum rules as well?
There is more than enough place for this on other forums on this site.

Marine expert Simon Pierce, from the Shark and Ray Research Group at the University of Queensland, says stingrays will sometimes attack without warning.
"It's got a very sharp tip so it penetrates quite easily and then it's got serrations down the side so it rips when it goes out," he said.
"It's also surrounded in venom so a lot of venom goes into the bloodstream and affects the heart.
"So they are quite a dangerous fish when provoked - they've even killed killer whales before, so certainly not something you want to mess with." |
